I hope you guys get my wacky generalizations, but it is GTS all the way for me. It sounds AMAZING...I cannot stress this point enough.
Excellent review and comments. The 991 is gorgeous but too small for a family daily driver. The M5 definitely relies on brute force. Your description of the GTS sounds perfect...if I could only get past the looks.
