Goodbye 997.2 C2S, but hello 991 GTS

I am about to place an order on a similarly spec'ed car and hope you can help me with the Aerokit Cup option... How low is the front spoiler?...
Does it give you any issues with speed bumps / multi-storey car parks etc? Or you have to carry a couple of bricks and a piece of plywood?... :)
Thanks mate. TBH it isn't that low - I have had no problems with speed humps although have not been brave enough to go into a multi storey yet! Doing a euro tour at the end of July and coming back via Santander ferry - a little concerned on that!

If it helps I will get the tape measure out and measure clearance?

Cheers
I went to Porsche West London office and they happened to have a lovely C2S with Aerokit Cup. I looked at it and think it should be OK for normal use. The sales guy also said it should be OK for multi storey car parks.

I guess we just need to be a bit more careful...

Thank you.

Hi Mark, just bear in mind that the GTS sits 10mm lower than the C2S as standard!

Yes, I am aware of that.
I did not go for the PASM sports suspension (20 mm lower) as I thought it may be too hard.

Hi Mark

I got the ferry to Dunkirk recently for a Euro trip in my 991 GTS- no problems at all with the ground clearance........ I was more concerned about the station wagons parked all around me and having someone open their door straight in to my bodywork- thankfully had no problems though.
I loved driving in Germany - the GTS is a superb GT car...although I was slightly perturbed to get flashed from cars behind a couple of times to get out of the fast lane whilst driving at 150mph on the autobahn.......
 
Good to know - cheers!
