If it right behind you almost like under the back of the seat. it the bushing in the trailing arm but I'll be criticized for this Porsche doesn't call it that. Link arm from body just behind seat to lower control arm at first it is just a solid thud later it can gets to be metal sounding. You could also check for something in the transmission guard or a loose shield riveted on the transmission guard.

I feel like thats what's wrong with my car... A terrible thud. :/ However; None of the suspension has play in it when I put it up on the lift. That would be pretty unusual and a new one for me if it has no play and still worn out.

Possibly struts?
