I have the lower Sport PASM suspension and would not consider a 997S with out it. It is not harsh in any way. Porsche did a great job tuning this system for the street and DE or Autocross use. The care sits a little lower and it looks so much better but it rides like a true sports car should...not harsh but very in control.

If you all want a plush ride why did you pick a Porsche sports car? there are so many other plush riding cars with a little bit of sport thrown in such as a 3 series BMW and so forth.
