I drive rain and snow in M3s, and one has 700 rwhp. The Porsche with AWD and snows will be great. No Golf for me. Don’t need a car that is too special to drive much of the time.

My understanding is that the 991.1 GTS used the old 3.8L N/A motor. Nowhere near the performance of a 991.2 GTS with turbo 3.0L or 991.1TT with turbo 3.8L.

If you want to stay high revving N/A, look at 991 GT3, or the Audi/Lambo, or if you are on a budget, the Ford GT350 and the E9xM3. I have the 6MT trans on my E90M3 but think the DCT is higher performing and better geared for the engine’s power curve.
