I drove both and bought the GTS.
It's MUCH more satisfying to drive IMO.

You cited the weight advantage of the GT4 at speed! The weight advantage of rear grip helped the GTS get going despite its "weight" penalty.


I'm guessing you don't have a physics degree. So believe what you want. If you think that a drag coefficient that's bad at low speed but somehow provides downforce needed at high speed (read downforce as weight) then we don't need to discuss this further. What's nonsense is blindly believing everything one is told.

Do you have reading comprehension problems? I was commenting on the drag race in that video, merely stating that the GTS is a heavier car, so the actual power to weight ratios of those cars are very close. Hence, one would expect them to be very close in a quarter mile, save for the grip advantage of the GTS off the line. Which is exactly what that drag race shows.

And as regards your physics comment, pretty funny given your next sentence indicates you don't have a clue about what you're taking about, as you're not only confusing drag coefficient and down force, you're not even understanding how down force affects the car at higher and lower speeds. On top of that, the argument you're making is counter to what you said in your earlier post, i.e., that the GT4 had an aerodynamic advantage. It has exactly the opposite, as it's drag coefficient is worse than the GTS. And at speed, it's aero treatment creates more downforce than the GTS, which, while improving grip, actually increases drag.

Not sure if I agree with this. Can see my post earlier, but in summary I think the GTS has a higher pitched exhaust note and sounds more guttural. But does it sound better? That's obviously subjective, but I prefer the deep bassy note of the regular S PSE.
