I’m referring to first owners to clarify lol. Anyone buying a used Porsche is an enthusiast S or not. But if you’re forking out 50k for a sports car you might as well pay 60 for the S if you’re looking to go fast. I expect upon first purchase new buyers the base models were wrecked more frequently.

Don't have any clue about the difference between insurance costs, but just to make sure there is no misunderstanding for newbie's, neither of these cars are "fast" by ANY stretch of the imagination. Porsche's own specifications list the 0-60 time's as less than 1 second between the two models. Buy a base and save some money or buy an S and spend some money, either way just enjoy the ride...they're great cars.

S is more car over a base you get better breaks and more hp. Not to start a rgument over which is a better car, but Buying a base does not translate to necassarily save money. I have not heard anyone driving an S saying they wish they had a base. Not that a base are not nice cars. I just think a newbie needs a clear understanding of the differences. And fast is only relative to what a person is used to, these are classic cars generally, by todays hp standards they are not fast, but they are not slow either.
