Sport Chassis and PASM (question)

I'm in the process of orderind a 997 S but I have a couple of questions which I hope you'll guys help me!

On the Porsche website, it shows an option of sport chassis which lowers the car by 20mm. My questions is, if you order this are you still going to have PASM? Pasm is standard on the s right?
Does any of you have the Sport suspension option?

Thanks for the help!!

You will lose PASM if you order sport suspension. PASM offers the best of both worlds, soft comfortable ride or super stiff race-like ride. With sport suspension you will be stuck with a very stiff ride at all times and you will lose the enjoyment of driving a Porsche. Hope this helps...

The -20mm sport suspension is not available in the US due to DOT regs.

I know, bad choice of words because there is no such thing as losing the enjoyment of driving a Porsche.... that's why I bought another one. Nonetheless, it is nice to have the option to choose between two susp settings......... it further enhances the Porsche driving experience
