I find this interesting, because I was just complaining on another thread about how my 987 Doesn't display any trailing-throttle oversteer. I actually find it a to be a helpful trait, and about the only thing that will kill mid-corner understeer. Is this another difference between a 986 and 987?

The "snap" oversteer is partially due to the mid-engine design, more rear weight & grip due to wider rear tires, and a lower MOI, but I think the biggest reason is the short wheelbase.
