992 4GTS or Turbo S Daily
Discussion
as sound a reason as any! IMO it ticks all boxes for a daily and engaging enough for a daily. I'd say the turbo wouldn't be practical. GTS is considered thr middle ground sweet spot in the range, hence the ideal choice for a daily
That being said, if I had spent 150k on a car, I wouldn't let it at home, I'd daily that turbo too

Why don’t you think the Turbo would be practical?That being said, if I had spent 150k on a car, I wouldn't let it at home, I'd daily that turbo too

Can I ask what were the main reasons for getting the GTS?
Id probably loose my license far quicker in a Turbo S
I don’t daily my best car I had 7.5 years across 2 M2’s OG and Comp, prior to them A45’s and RS3’s and a couple of different generations of M3’s in the 90’s and 2000’s.
I prefer rwd over 4wd and the GTS is more than enough for public roads.
Drive them both and see which you prefer.

I thought that - firmer than my 991.2 GTS anyway. Watched a few reviews where people thought it might grate on a day to day basis…
Did you choose between the two?
Yes but the 991.1 TS v .2 GTS gen . So glad I got the TS - I love it. Did you choose between the two?

992 Turbo S. I found the gts too harsh with the -10mm suspension (daily in London). Trouble was finding a Turbo S that hadn’t been specced with the drop - got one eventually and v happy..
Why can’t you daily one? Most Taycans on the road are as fast, but don’t stop so well - great car at any speed.

The turbo s is softer.
I did consider a gts as to be frank they are better value and I could have got a newer one, but
A. It is not a turbo s
B. Most gts have Alcantara and I don't like alcantara
C. Too harsh.
D the turbo s is a better looking car with a nicer spoiler and the side intakes.
There are people that say the turbo s is too fast for the road etc but this is entirely voluntary and decided with your right foot. I suspect it also has a lot to do with how much people are willing to spaf on a car. The base model has always been the black sheep. On rennlist suddenly everyone is keen on the base which I think has a lot to do with the significant ongoing price increases.
The car is quite different in normal vs sport or sport plus. Normal I just drive it like my Cayenne ( which is a better daily vehicle as is is quieter ) but on sport it comes alive.
I take kids to the cinema and also have fun with it. It just does what you want it do do
