How does a C2S differ from a C4S in exterior appearances?

C2S has split grill in back and C4S comes standard with big reds.

Talking A little pricey????

$57,000 for a N/A poseur car (Turbo Look A Like is all I mean kids), and for under $70,000 I could get a 96/97 Turbo, and for $80,000 a used GT3...this is why I believe the $57,000 is high...45K to 50K would be more realistic, howver, as they say, there is an butt for every seat." If they sit (no pun intended) on this Carrera S long enough, a person that wants a pristine low mileage car may very well step up.

340hp

It has sports seats so that adds 5k. Nice color though.

Its a Carrera S -- the titanium colored shifter ****, brake handle and the carrera S script on the Tach. are all items that were limited, and standard equipment, for the Carerra S.

Nuff said. Turbo $$ for a C2S makes little sense. But like I said, dig the color.
The dyno sheet, that 's another story.

In North America, I think only C2S's came in Vesuvio and I think they always came with the titanium coloured mirrors, door handles and split rear grill.

It is a great colour to see in person.

Vesuvio is also the color Porsche use for the Millenium limited edition. It's a nice color with many characters depending on lighting.
