How do the GTS, Turbo and Turbo S compare?

In terms of handling.

I read somewhere that the GTS sits lower than the Turbo (thus I assume better handling) but how about the Turbo S?

Any idea?

I would say they all handle the same if equipped with the same PDCC option. Bigger brakes on the Turbo S never hurt for slowing down. A TechArt lowering module would take care of the ride-height issues.

Mine comes standard with PDCC and I would not want to imagine it without. It's simply amazing.

I guess then there all the same. Thanks

My friend just got rid of his DBS. He loved it but traded it in for an SLR. Hope you post pics once you get it!

I will post pics, no doubt.

Why did he get rid of his DBS though? What was wrong?

I don't think there was anything wrong at all. It was white and looked like pure sex. He is fortunate enough to have a LOT of nice exotics. He keeps them for a short time and gets something new quite often.

No doubt about that.

I was wondering due to an article I read recently.

turbo cars had a bad rep, due to the reliable issues in the long run, but I don't see that anymore, since the technology has caught up with it.
