I'm in the same boat.

I have the trade price worked out on my C4S. Every month I wait, it goes down (of course), and the *only* reason I haven't placed an order is the lack of US availability of the Sports Suspension.

Problem is, after two extensive test drives in the 997S (w/PASM), I'm so hooked, I'm already emotionally divorced from my 996, but stuck in limbo awaiting word on the Sport Susp.

I'm guessing the lack of the sport suspension is two-fold:

1. Since it's rumored to be -10 mm (sPASM height), PAG will source US-specific springs and dampers. That probably is not a top priority at the moment.

2. Not offering the Sport Susp forces S owners into PASM; PAG likely wants penetration and market acceptance of a system given the fact that they've likely spent millions of rubles developing it.

Just guesses though.

No word from two dealers on it, and no reply from Schwarzenbauer on the subject.
