Like others have said not a fan of the wheels/ decals. Clio looks good though.

Lose the stickers and it'd be pretty nice TBH. And if you have to ask which is quicker you're a bit special.

C4S is more fun than a Clio if driven well, so that point is moot.

and that's arguable the worse handling (911) they did.
Masses off understeer on the way in, followed by masses of oversteer on the way out. Pushed hard it oversteers but going into the corners its prone to understeer so makes the perfect line a little difficult.
How can it be 'worse' than the previous model. Or the standard Carrera or Carrera 4!!!

So what you're saying is that the 4wd car is not as good as the 2wd car in similar guise. Which everyone knows anyway. Unless it's wet.
Not that its THE worst handling 911.
I'm guessing you've not drove these cars...
I bought my first 4S for 2 reasons, 1) Believing the sales rep 2) The 996 4S had the 'turbo' body and turbo 'style' wheels. Also being the later 996 it had the 3.6 engine which is a much improved version over the earlier 3.4 but do suffer with piston / ring problems.
I then went with a 997 4S which in my heart was the wrong decision but my head won the fight as at the time the 4S seemed to hold better re-sale value.
Anyway going back on to the topic of the 4S, at the time of sale Porsche was suggesting it indeed was as good if not better than the comparable C2. This could of just been a sales tactic which I believed the first time around.
But without doubt the 4 / 4S is a pretty poor 'performance' car considering Porsche got it pretty much spot on in terms of chasis.
( Sorry for the life story, just thought i'd give you an example of where I was coming from in terms of the 4s )
I owned a 997 4S for 2.5 years also 
It was simply an epic car. Ok, not as fun as the 2S but I certainly didn't have any problems with its handling.
I wouldn't own a 2S simply because it looks puney next to a 4S. 911s need the widebody in my opinon.
The brakes are also better on the 4S

Think it depends on the colour of the car as to whether the stickers/wheels work.
Looks good on the yellow to me.

No offence taken.
I personally don't like the look of the 2S, it looks too skinny (in comparison to the 4S). I loved the wide hips!
Plus I wanted all year ability. Drove mine on ice and snow with no problems.
Enough from me on this, lets get the thread get back on topic
EDIT: ^GT3 Aero Kit is for heroes. Those wheels are different to the one in the OP though. They're the ones I like.
