Drive comparison of 2.7 RS and 993 RS
DON'T FLAME ME PLEASE..
I know the two are very different - I've been reading on the subject.
Since the odds of driving them are close to zero, I was wondering if I could get some info here.
I am mainly concerned with the differences in driving, chassis, engine, and the over all vehicle dynamics. Also, which one do you prefer as a pure drivers car and why?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!

I would assume that anyone with a 2.7RS had better be "on their game" in keeping that car going in the right direction. Same as the 930 was a handful for the uninitiated and many had a short life span. The 993 RS obviously handled better, due to improved design, suspension, and engine, being more stable and controllable. Your skill set will determine which car you prefer as a "pure driver's car". I doubt that anyone who owns both would try driving either "at the limit"

I've read comments about the 993 RS having less feel and being less raw than the 2.7, but nobody explains exactly how, which got me thinking (and maybe overthinking).
To anyone that has driven both near the limit, how do they differ in the corners? And what about that 'feel'?
Also, how much of a difference does the power steering in the 993 RS make?
Cheers!

consider, no power brakes, very much a drive by the seat of your pants car vs. power brakes / ABS. A more refined motor and a more forging car in the 993.
