991.2 911 GTS or TurboS?
I know it’s been talked about before but I too can’t decide to go with what I think is the better looking classic 911 gts or get the torque monster, but not as aesthetically pleasing to me, turboS. A little bit of my background. I just sold my Ferrari F12 because it it just didn’t put a big enough smile on my face for the payments I was making on it. My daily driver is a 2014 Porsche PTTS that I love and every time I go to sell it for something else, I just can’t do it. I thought it only makes sense for me to get a 911 turboS but I don’t like the looks of it as much as the 911 gts but not sure the gts will be ‘enough’ for me. True world problems I know! For those who have been in that situation please tell me why you made that decision and if you are happy with it.

Hi George, I believe the solution to your problem would be to get a 991.2 GTS and add an exhaust + ECU flash/tune.
This would give you more power/torque at the wheels than a Turbo S. You can also buy a 4GTS to obatin the AWD chassis.

Payments/smile-fun. Awesome vehicle but two much money and by the time you felt the torque you were going a hundred miles per hour. A turbo vehicle is different.

I guess it depends on what you want to do with it. Why did you buy the Ferrari to begin with. Porsche and Ferrari are completely different in all respects. If you want a rough riding daily driver, buy another Ferrari. If you want a "smile on your face" every time you drive, get the Turbo S. It depends what you want to do.
