Will I get bored of a 991.2 GTS C4?
Discussion
Hive opinion on the purchase of a 991.2 GTS C4 PDK.
I'm looking to change my 987.2 S PDK Cayman and a V6 Lotus Exige for a 991.2 GTS C4 PDK.
The 987.2 with the NA engine has its positives but generally I find it a bit dull below 5k rpm, it has PSE etc but it's flat. I could possibly justify the cost of a 991.2 GT3 however am not a fan of the big wing or lack of back seats which can hold a couple of kids at least.
I have some other toys in the garage in the form of a 650S Spider, Vanquish volante, R8 V10 Plus and a V6 Exige track car so feel the R8 has the NA high revving top trumps already. The daily is a E63S Wagon and I genuinely find the engine in that hugely more entertaining than the NA flat 6.
I've yet to drive the new (but now old I guess) turbo 3.0 Porsche lump but I think the torque delivery will be far more favourable to road driving with the odd trackday. I can't be bothered to drive the Lotus to Spa or the Ring for track action so the GTS will get drive there once per year.
The crystal ball question is that do owners see 991.2 GTS prices plummeting since 992's have started circulating as the 991.2 has no apparent benchmark; not the last NA, hydraulic steering, manual etc
