Default Carrera 2 v. Carrera 4 Comparison Test

While scrolling the interwebs I stumbled upon this fascinating comparison of the Carrera 2 & Carrera 4.
There are several out there on the web but this seems to be the most conclusive of the bunch.

Pretty much accurate. I have had some form of 964 since 2001, the last 11 years it’s been a C4. I’ve done a lot of track and road driving. At the track, the C4 is sure footed but a C2 would be more agile. On the road, in real world driving, I’d take the C4 every time as it’s great on greasy roads and loses nothing in the dry.
