Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Suggestion
A GTS owner previously posted that on his way to work he had to change route from the natural one or diagonally cross some speed humps he met.
Leading evidence: 'Replace route' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace route' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I was watching a Dutch review of the Cayman GT4 on YouTube this morning and the reviewers were commenting on the way it scuffed the front spoiler as it negotiated speed humps?
Have any owners of other Boxster/Cayman models had similar problems? (In my case I would be interested in the experience of BGTS drivers)
I don't really want to be having to take a diagonal approach to all speed humps.

Mines a S with PASM - so the ride height is as low as a GTS on PASM (but not SS) BUT the splitter is not so protruding nor (I believe) as low as the GTS. And, although I do not have a problem with speed humps, it is marginal on even vaguely sloping drives - and grounds on some. So, personally, I would be disinclined to buy a GTS for that reason and be wary of SS. If you look at the information on the GTS bodywork option on the S you will see that Porsche warn of reduced ground clearance.
This was discussed here...

Long story short, only the 997 GT3 RS and Carrera GT are worse for speed humps due to the very long overhangs, low ride height and lack of front lift option on the GT4. Porsche themselves rated is less useable day to day than a 991 GT3 on launch which makes sense because it is positioned as a road going track toy after all.
The GTS should have a lot better ground clearance although still compromised compared to the normal PASM S.
CGTS with ss/x73 here.
Front dams are not vergin anymore (plastic bits at the bottom of the front bumper), but just a couple of touches to the ground, you can't spot it unless you examine the bottom edge, not really an issue at all. Front lower valance is ok, never touched (big concern on GT3/GT4).

A GTS owner previously posted that on his way to work he had to change route from the natural one or diagonally cross some speed humps he met. Not sure everyone would put up with that on a DD. I've just come back from France heavily laden - I was very circumspect as it was getting on/off the ferry. I'd have been having kittens if the car had been any lower.
