I ended up driving a GT and might buy it. At $34k it seems to offer better value, and to me drove exactly the same as the GTS. The only real difference is the brakes, and a good set of pads on the GT is going to be better than the stock GTS anyways.

Just upgrade the rear discs at the same time-- the calipers are the same apparently. Also Wilwood and others will be coming out with upgrade sets.
It's worth noting CAR magazine tested both the GT and GTS at Tsukuba (G and GT in Japan-- however, the G gets local "GTS" spec brakes)-- ideal circuit for smaller cars-- and found the GT to be a half second faster on average of ten laps. That's a big difference on a 1 minute track.
