RWD all day long, you lose in a straight line but make it up in the corners ! Still way fast enough to bust your license..

They do not make the GTS ST RWD :(
Hold on to that thought expect more models between now and end of the year 99% confident of that. Taycan RWD ST is likely.

Note switching to Sport mode switches the drive bias to the rear so I still think the base model remains in the shadows.

I found an electric Porsche with great steering feedback/feel and with manual transmission! ?

I like the steering feel – best in the whole EV range and close to a 911.
(However, I have all possible options to improve ride quality, e.g., RWS, PDCC, …)

What didn't you like specifically? to "light"?

Tyres play a role, too.

I did not get the steering feedback I expected. Steering is very precise but it felt light and little road feedback. But I only spent a total of about 20 minutes (on two occasions) driving the car so my experience with the Taycan 4S is very limited. I have not driven many EVs but I expect Taycan is superior to most in terms of steering.

Looking at what the Taycan RWD owners here have said and other material I found online, it seems the base Taycan RWD has the best steering feedback. I intend to test drive one when one shows up nearby. But I am still committed to ordering a Taycan GTS Sport Turismo as soon as I get an allocation. If Porsche comes up with a RWD GTS ST I would love to check it out.
