For reference, I test drove a 991.2 GTS (not 4) before I purchased my Targa 991.2 GTS. To be honest I did not push the car to the limit when test driven. At the GTS power levels (which is the S level on the 992) I did not feel the car was really impacted by the extra weight. The targa does feel a bit softer, if that makes any sense. That could be because the GTS has SPASM but overall its not a huge difference. What you will notice is the targa will have more creaks, especially on crappy roads, as the chassis is flexing more (you have no roof).
So if I were you I would not dismiss the Targa as it is EPIC and I am sure they made it even better. But I would not get a base model, get the 4S or wait for the GTS.

The higher COG of the Targa is what makes driving the Targa different than most other 911s (Cabs, included).
