Base vs S is about $14k
Yes S is a bit faster and got bigger brakes
But for a daily driver dose it make any difference to u? All of my commute is street driving and I hardly get past 3000 rpm - so I got a base and with PDK and chrono sport steering 0-60 is faster then S with a MT and higher mpg.
Test drive and see for your self.

Here in Switzerland Coupe are almost all "S". On the ragtops side, there's quite a few 3.4 L, even with 4WD.
Let's see with Targas. Anyway, no X51 and SPASM subject with this model.

Make sure you get sport chrono and sport exhaust. That targa is the sweetest car I have seen in a while. If they really stop making 7MT cars I might have to buy one CPO when my current lease is up and make it my first ever "long termer". Guards Red of course...

But I agree that one should test drive to decide...

I'd get the S with this model. It's a heavier car and has is a 4wd weight. For a standard coupe used as a driver, base is fine, I had a 997.2 base manual and it was MORE than fast enough around town. The 991 is lighter and a little more power. Then again I sold it and bought a GT3RS...go figure.

I just can't get over the fact some guys have NO reservations whatsoever about posting pics of guns in this international forum 8-)
I wonder how I am going to counter that cultural difference. Maybe I'll start posting pics of sex toys ...
LOL
