The C4S shares many cosmetic features with the Turbo, front grill, wide body, side skirts... the rear is different in that the C4S has the wrap around rear reflector and the automatic deck lid, vs. the Turbo fixed wing. The C4S does not have the air scoops for the Turbos obviously.

The C4S shares the same brakes, and I think suspension with the Turbo. It also came standard with more that the regular Carrera C2/C4, including full leather.

The C4 Cab is identical to the regular Carrera cab, but is AWD.

One is a year younger and has the sexy genes for a nice butt.

seriously, other than the front clip, rear clip, the lower/stiffer suspension on the C4S, more options being standard on the C4S and of course, that rear sweet reflector strip, there are no differences!

PSM is standard on the C4S. Don't know about the C4.

PSM is standard on the C4, not the C2.

I always wondered why it is that the AWDs get the PSM standard. One school of thought would be that these cars will have a greater chance of seeing slippery conditions (ie. ice and snow) than their 2wd brothers and hence, PSM being more useful during those times.

Other than that, I'm not sure why we get it standard. No complaints about it though!

Riad-glad you are back to this avatar...always got a kick out of it.

By the way, I ordered the Shure E5Cs...have not arrived yet...could not justify the $1K model you also recommended.

Hehe... yeah you have to go to an audiologist to have molds made of your ears because they manufacture them to your ear canal.

Anyway the Shure's are fantastic! You'll love em.

Had a prob with my Shures...ridding the Fatboy sans helmet and stopped for cafe. When I dismounted, I couldn't find my plugs, looked everywhere, even stripped off my leathers figured they got caught in layers of clothes. Not until the Starbucks hottie started to flirt in muted tones that i realized that those suckers were stuck way inside the canal. Thank god she was handy with two coffee stiring sticks. Using them like mini chopsticks she extracted the offending plugs. I mused that the scene reminded me of the demure mouse removing the thorn from the savage lion's paw.... she asked if I had taken my meds that morning.

For a humorous analysis of the C4S (althougth not the cab), look at http://[http://video.google.com/vide...q=top+gear+bbc]
