The 25% that I’d be driving it on the street is enough to keep me from targeting the GT3. At that point, it would be a dedicated track car to me but this definitely isn’t....for now.

Well....actually the 997 GT3's are all narrow bodies while all 997 GTS's are wide bodies. I'll give you this though. Whenever I see a 997 GT3 I always think it looks like a WB for some reason. Not wild about the tall rear wing but other than that it just has amazing street presence (and exhaust note).

After doing some research, the S-PASM suspension could be replicated and upgraded beyond stock on any C2S for around $5500 (I believe that quote was from Elephant). Other options: Ohlins coilovers, upgraded sways, DSC controller. The S-PASM is nice, but for $5500, you can do a whole lot more than that!

OP notes he already has Ohlins - given most of the comments about these in the suspension threads you're probably already handling like a GTS (or better :-) )

Better I bet! That plus stiffer sway bars (stock SPASM) should tick all of the boxes.
