Methinks I hear sour grapes, LexusPilot. Just about every auto writer on the face of the earth agrees that the 987 is better. And the Japanese transmission, by the way, is great (Does your name mean that you're also a Lexus owner. Has it got a German transmission?). That doesn't mean the (Finnish-built) 986 is a bad car by any stretch of the imagination. There'll always be something better coming along and the 987 owners will someday find that a new version is passing us by. Some may say that day is almost here with the Cayman. Few of us would be surprised if the Cayman engine ends up in the '07 987S. When that happens, I'm not gonna cry over 15 more horsepower. Hell, I turned down 120 more by not choosing the Corvette.
Over 10 years, I enjoyed every day of my 968 even as other cars began to surpass it in 0-60 and other measures. I say enjoy what you have instead of criticizing what you don't.
