Which would you chose - 2015 C2 GTS or 2017 C2S?

Since you're considering the 2017, turbos are ok with you. If you can wait, order a new GTS to your specs.
Or, if you can't wait, get either one and trade it in on a new GTS.
Two things I did not like with my 997.2 GTS were center lock wheels and alcantara. I test drove a GTS with 30k mile and the alcantara was worn off on the steering wheel and gear shifter. Plus, you can't get ventilated seats with the alcantara. And the center locks were just a pain. I had to buy the tools to remove them and then put them in the frunk. Were they deal breakers? No, but it was hard to find a GTS without those two options.
If your GTS does not the have CL wheels and alcantara, nice find.

If you're considering a GTS, why not get a C2S. I realize this may be a controversial opinion, but I think the GTS is a scam. The only real difference is wider rear fenders. They are nice -- but $30K-40K more expensive nice? Not to me. And the 30HP power difference is meaningless on a 400HP car. Get a really nicely optioned 991.1S or if you want the wider fenders get a 4S and save tons of money that you can spend on mods or track time. That's what I did.

Thanks to everyone for the valuable responses. Well, the 991.1 GTS was sold yesterday before I could act, so I'll need to re-assess my options. I do like the 991.2 S, so I may take it for another test drive and perhaps also try to find a GTS to test again (this may not be easy).

Obviously, the GTS, one more thing that makes it special is you can brag about it on Rennlist, 
Or you could really set a trend and pull the turbos off of the .2 and have a NA .2, that'd be really special........ it'd be really slow, but the NA guys would love you.
disclaimer....... I have a .2 base on order so take that as you will.
This is all just a joke........so I hope nobody gets all excited......

It really is a matter of taste. I, for one, am a big NA enthusiast. I have driven the "real" Porsche turbo, the 911 Turbo S and I did not like the way it drove or sounded. The 991.1 GTS was my wheelhouse in terms of power delivery, sound and overall driving experience. One is not better than the other, but one is certainly better for me!
