Does the 992.2 Carrera S make the 992.1 GTS redundant?

[RichDS]

As per title and re PDK cars.
I was looking at late .1 GTS 2024 cars at c £115-120k
There are 2026 .2 S for similar money and basically no miles with decent specs..
I suppose two aspects to the question:
Which is the better car
Which (if either) will retain its value better
TIA

The 992.2 S has received very good reviews.
It should be notably lighter than the .2 GTS and have a more compliant ride than the .1 GTS (although some nanny state driver intrusions).

However, the big interest in the .2S is the availability of the 6-spd Manual, certainly in the U.S., but not clear if the RoW.

I d have the 992.2 S.

Newer, no centre lock wheels and a more compliant ride.

It borrows some parts from the previous GTS anyway, I think.

.2 gts is pretty heavily discounted. Not sure on ride.

Worth watching this technical video to see that's it's "pretty much" a 992.1 GTS.
