I thought the question was which is more "fun", not which is "best".

You need to step away from the keyboard and get your hands on one of each vehicle.

That's not exactly illustrative of your point considering that some have suggested that either the sanctioning body does not allow AWD and/or the Cup cars may form the basis for the IMSA/ALMS RSR.

Recall these threads:

There are benefits to both and drawbacks to both. Both "tools" are great in general, although sometimes the intended use of the tool dictates which is better for that application.

C2 is more fun no doubt about it.

Mark Wilson

C4 is more fun no doubt about it.

C4S is more fun no doubt about it.

What he said (:

all i know is that when i am on a smooth road with a sharp curve, i lift off the throttle before i enter it, slowing down a bit from the deceleration before i am in the curve, then as i turn the SW with my somewhat sweaty palms, i drop a gear, rev match and put the accelerator through the floor...the feeling of that fat *** with rear wheel drive at THAT moment is like having the had of God himself grab the back of a toy car and push it....

(my attempt at a little poetic drama)

Let's compromise--the C3 is the best.

Fun is subjective: not objective. drive both; decide for yourself. no one else can tell you which will be more fun for you to drive (that would be judgemental).

Well guys. What with all your help I am going to have to spring for a TT just to play it safe. I guess that a TT is a C4. The thing that worried me about the C2 was that I couldn't figure how such a tumble could come at non-breakneck speeds (Rassel, don't tell me they slowed this film down):

Vic -

One thing to note, however, is that I don't think that crash video is of a 911 despite what the file name suggests. Check out the header and the dashboard controls.

Between the C4 and C2S (or even against the lowly C2 NB), the answer is obvious: the car that is the most fun to drive is the one that you have most fun driving. There, quandary solved.

...and to paraphrase Ray C. from many moons ago, and now more recently Terry A. : get out from behind the computer and get in the car and figure it out.

...All in good fun, of course. But really, get out there and make your own decision. You don't go around polling people on flavors before you step into a Baskin Robins, do you?

Edward

What Edward says is true, but it's a lot easier to "test drive" the flavors at the local Baskin Robbins than to find a nice C2 and C4 right in your area to compare, so I understand the question. I had the same question when I was looking for my 993 a couple of years ago.

Crownvic

Jeff, that makes sense, a 911 was driving in front of him a good bit faster and didn't loose grip.

Edward. Point well taken. However I was trying to talk myself down a tree as I've been tempted to toss a deposit at a TT that is lookin' good. Sort of hoped you guys would talk me out of it and into something less outrageously expensive. But I'm going to plunk down a deposit and - if it passes the PPI - I will find out what it's like once I own it. I'd try it first, but it is 5000 miles to get there.
