Why is it that the Carrera 4S down on horsepower and torque (385/310) when compared to its cousin, the Carrera S (400/325)? Also, is the difference apparent on the street?

I think You're talking about 2 different birds here.
Porsche's current Carrera 4S is still the 997.2 model; hence 385hp (just like the 997.2 Carrera S).
The current Carrera S is already the 991 model; hence 400hp.

Carrera S 2009-2012 997 version is 385hp...GTS is 408hp...new 2012 991 version is 400hp...this is where you are getting confused with Porsche selling both the 997 and 991 versions side by side.
