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.
