I am fortunate to be in a position to where I have convinced my boss (who happens to be my father.....horray for nepotism) to give me a company car. He is aware that I am really wanting a 2012 Carrera 2 S (PDK, sports exhaust, chrono package, etc). It lands somewhere near $110,0000. However, at the same dealership, there is a 911 Carrera Black Edition with PDK for $92,000.
My question is, will I be absolutely kicking myself if I went with the Black Edition, instead of the Carrera 2 S? I was feeling a little guilty about the $110,000, but I also want to make sure that I get a very solid 911 (performance wise).
I'm aware of the engine displacement different (3.6 vs. 3.8). Is there a huge performance difference between the two cars?
Thank you very much!

Question regarding 911 Black Edition and a 911 Carrera 2 S
in 997-2 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S, Carrera GTS, 911 Speedster)

Thank you for the reply. The Carrera S that I was looking at looked absolutely identical to the Black Edition. Absolutely no difference (to the naked eye). Based on your response, I may opt for the Black Edition.
For what it's worth, the following link is the Carrera S that I was looking at....
