@SmoothIsSlow I have an 18 TS with about 2.5k miles that I’d consider selling. It’s a weekend car for me so I hardly drive it. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are some new ones that haven’t sold yet.

The tS is minimally more stable, but virtually no performance increase, due to the sheer amount of WOT time spent in both cars.

Mike would you say that the wing offers more confidence to a not so experienced driver, but without much gains otherwise? I believe that the wing gives better high cornering speeds, with the expense of smaller top speeds on the longer straights. So, in total the gains should be minimal?

get the tS. You get added "clout" with it ;)

I drove a tS on track this weekend, was basically stock but has Pilot Sports on it. Was a decent stock car, nothing impressive to make it any better than any other 86 cars. I'll take my modded '13 over it any day.
