The chassis and handling is absolutely sublime. The engine is simply awful compared to the screamer in the 981 generation. We have both in the family, and the only thing the 718 has going for it vs. the 981 S is the low end torque and newer infotainment. Everything else about the driving experience (as that should be paramount with a Porsche, in my opinion) is better in the 981.

A 981 GTS 6MT would probably be as much car as I could ever need, considering how nice the S already feels. The power to weight is truly impressive and the cars feel much fast than 315HP would have you believe. I won't even mention the handling as there's a reason it was constantly in contention for best driver's car by most major automotive journalism outlets.
