Not the oil, because it is on the top of the engine, it is empty while the engine is not running, so the oil level remains the same because the sump capacity is unchanged. Porsche also does not differentiate oil capacities’ between the base and the S; both hold 8.75 L (with filter). When running, however, because of its size, there is more oil transfering heat to more coolant. The coolant capacity does increase slightly because the cooler is always full of coolant.
