- Taycan 4S (coming soon)

Still debating on pulling the trigger for a Taycan and was getting very close to spec’ing my 4S. The base Taycan price point is obviously enticing, my build after options is around 125-130 vs 4S which is 145-150. I probably don’t need all wheel drive but might be a nice to have in inclement weather conditions. I do live in California though so most the time weather shouldn’t be an issue.
I guess my main question or concern is how fun the base will feel during backroads or spirited driving. I would option the bigger battery for more range, so not sure if this affects or changes the 0-60 in 5.1 timing. Obviously that’s no slouch for most cars but in terms of modern sports cars and especially for electric that number sounds somewhat slow. I know Porsche is usually always conservative but still. Say the car is around 0-60 in 4.6 or so. That’s the same as my 2011 Boxster Spyder with PDK and sports chrono. I no longer have that car but just saying.
I have driven the 4S and loved it. Just wonder how the base will feel compared to the 4S. Slower? Lighter and more nimble in anyways?
Appreciate the help and thoughts.
