Whilst the cars all same the same basic DNA, no standard C2 or C4 I've driven has felt anything like an RS .... that's akin to saying a 996 C2 feels like 996 GT3, and whilst there maybe some basic similarities between a C2 and 964 RS, items such as the non-PAS rack, stiffer engine mounts, lightweight flywheel, spherical bearing suspension top mounts etc, all meld to produce a far more focused, raw and visceral experience that's considerably more tactile and engaging than the C2 with its power assisted steering, dual mass flywheel, and rubber laden top mounts.

Agreed in stock form but these are common changes many make to their 964's. I would expect the seam welded tub is one of the harder things to achieve without major interior work which would contribute to the improved handling. I have done everything to my C2 mentioned except the seam weld and non-PAS and it transformed it tremendously. My track car goes beyond the RS trying to emulate more of the 3.8RS/RSR and it is amazing how much the ride is transformed beyond my C2. The precision in turn in and point and shoot feel vs waiting for the suspension flex to catch up is undeniable but they do all carry that 964 DNA.
