If you want to be envious of a Porsche, go drive a 981. Now that I have, my days in a 986 are numbered...

A 981 Spyder or 981 R might be scary good. I might have to avoid ever driving that one...

Btw, whenever I read about someone swapping their Carrera for the 981S, I always congratulate them for upgrading to a Boxster.
How is moving to a midengine Porsche not an upgrade? LOL. Speaking of which, If Porsche ever made a 918 that "just" had a 991 GT3 engine revvvving to 9K RPM...oh boy. game over.

but maybe things are changing and Porsche is finally letting go of the "only the Carrera will get the best engines" mentality.
The VW CEO was recently rumored to be driving around in a Cayman with a flat8...
