the TurboS is not 2wd, it is AWD like all other standard production 993 Turbos (excluding GT2 and limited Turbo cab, which basically ran the 964 Turbo 3.6 engine/gearbox)

Here are the differences:

Off the top of my head...

Exterior:

deeper front chin spoiler, integrated brake ducts with fog lights, yellow calipers, intake in rear fenders, quad exhaust tips, dual-plane wing with intakes at corners, turboS badge on decklid and wheel centercaps, wheels carry distinctive "semi-polished" finish.

Interior:

extensive carbon fiber package with "turboS" on glove compartment cover, door pulls and loaded (I mean LOADED) with exclusive options, leather covering practically everything.

Other notables:

-carbon fiber front strut tower bar
-extra front oil cooler
-engine hp increased by 24bhp

993ttS, only 182 shipped to the states. MSRP $150k. The 2000 996tt MSRP was about $100k.

The 993ttS is the epitome of Carrera turbos. Probably only eclipsed by Rufs.
