Outside of price there is clearly no reason to buy a base 992.
Availability is another reason to buy a base 911. I want a GTS, but it’ll take a while for my allocation to come. Meanwhile, I’m driving a base and enjoying a 911 while I wait.

Bigger brakes would be a nice upgrade and I think they should be offered for the S, instead of having PCCBs as the only alternative to the 350mm discs.

For what I want, the S is better value.
Basically, the $20k premium puts the car out of your budget.

This thread could reach 100 pages and it still wouldn't result in me watching any of his videos.

Au contraire, professor. The GTS is a wannabe car for wannabe’s who can’t afford an actual GT car. I’m not interested in either, irrespective of price.

this is an emotional statement, not a factual statement. I am getting a GTS because that is the allocation available. Really, affording a GT car is far less challenging than getting one. To lump all GTS owners or S or T or etc. into one type of buyer is silly.

I can loan you the $20k for the GTS if you need it.
