My wife currently has a '14 S. She likes the look and sound of the GTS. Thinking of trending for a '13 GTS.

Of course this will cost me some $, but add some fun.

Do it? Don't do it? Opinions?

Thanks!

Depends on your S spec, I would think. Apart from the slight power increase and the turbo-look front fascia, it was possible to option a '13/'14 S to much the same spec. The main standard features on the GTS that separated it from the S were:

1) Air suspension
2) Sport exhaust
3) Alcantara interior (GTS sport seats w/ inserts and headliner)
4) 20" RS Spyder wheels
5) Sport design body kit
6) Power increase (+20 hp)
7) Turbo front end

Most of that (with the exception of the last two items) could be ordered for a standard S, so for you a lot will depend on what your current S already has.

Very nice to have options on either is PDCC and PTV, if the GTS you are looking at has those options as well (and your current S does not), that would also be a significant factor in my mind.

If the money is no problem, I'd do it in a heart beat.

I have a '13 GTS much different than an S. A great vehicle.

Thanks for the reponses.

The S is well equipped, but Im drawn to the sporty look, Sport chrono and the sound...they are few and far between though it seems...

And done...thanks for the input.

Congrats man... we love our '13 GTS. It really does bring a lot of sporting flair into the mix.

And after a few days - love it!

- love the turbo look. Just beautiful.
- love the firmer ride and handling
- LOVE the sound. Not as loud as PSE on my 991, but the growl is great.

Congrats! Great upgrade!

I chuckled at the Peachtree Blvd of your dealer. Seems like EVERY road name is some variance of Peach down there!!

Congrats on the switch. You'll continue to love it more every day I'm sure! Hope the wife does too.
Nice to see the blacked out rear tail lights too.

Looks like maybe you never used to tow hitch & roof rails on the CS

Great choice. What year is the GTS?

FlyDL757

Yes - I believe there are 60 different Peachtrees around Atlanta. Amazingly, somehow it works!

Agree on the blacked out tail lights. Amazing how a few minor differences can change the total picture!
