[928uk] Porsche 928 GTS for sale at Porsche Centre Tewkesbury in 2024!

I agree. The S/S2 feels lighter/more responsive than an S4/GT, even 
though the extra torque of the 32 valve motor makes it faster, it 
doesn't feel it.

I have just read Smiffy’s email and he highlights the main points very well.

One thing to add, which won’t take long.  In the past I have used GTSs extensively as everyday cars.  Lovely.  But I have also used an 86.5 S2 manual very extensively as an everyday car.  And somehow it feels smaller and lighter than the GTSs.  Which is really nice: I really like the feel of the S2 manual.
