Twisty roads for both. Did not take the CS on the freeway, was lucky enough to be near some backroads where you can push the car a bit. I took the M5 Base on both twisty backroads and the freeway.
Just in case it matters.
I test drove a 992 Turbo S about 8 months ago. Did not like it. It felt slow for regular driving as funny as that sounds. No character. I think if it had an aftermarket exaust i would have liked it better. I had just sold my 991.2 GT3 RS so i suppose i prefer the track feel even in my daily. I LOVED my GT3 RS. I'm not sad i sold it though.
I also drove the Taycan Turbo S on both sideroads and freeway. I've gotta admit, it was impressive. Really great feeling car all around. |
That is strange the Turbo S felt slow to you. Was that a 992 Turbo S? Maybe because it is more refined than the GT3 RS. I am guessing the turbo S is faster than the GT3 RS on the street. Why were you not sad to let the GT3 go?
I do not have any twisty roads in my area where I live. So it is difficult for me to grasp claims of difference in driving between the M5 variants. My daily driver has hydraulic steering and I feel no difference or do not notice any difference when I drive the M5.
