One other difference is that the 957 GTS was actually available with a manual transmission. I almost went with that model just for the trans, but later decided that the way we'd be using the vehicle, I'd rather have the 550 HP and the tiptronic than the 400 HP and manual, but it was a close call.

Thanks for clarifying this for me!
Makes total sense to get a Turbo over GTS, if they are usually cheaper (from my search experience, correct me if I am wrong) and have more bells and whistles from factory.
So GTS is pretty much an S with Sport Design Package? Or there are other differences?

From my research it seems like with CTT (considering it wasnt ridden hard everyday by a PO and turbos are still in good shape) you get more bang for the buck, resale value is just not as good as GTS - if I get a CTT with Sport Design Package it should help. Unless there are other reasons why the price on CTT is usually lower than GTS?

The HP of a CTT in a metro area will be impossible to use IMO. The CTT options that are typical for this model are tempting.

Forgot to mention the GTS is lighter than the S, includes sport air suspension and includes the sport design package (aero package). When it came out it had a $12k more MSRP over the S
