Just wanted some candid comments from anyone who went from a 986 to 987/Cayman. As some of you may know, I've recently purchased a 996 and I'm just ho-hum with that decision. At the end of the day, it wasn't enough of an "upgrade" to warrant a change IMO.

Interesting enough I "borrowed" a 997 S this weekend and wow, what a car. Really light years ahead of the 996 in regard to fit, finish, quality and power. I mean, there's a 6 year difference between that car and my 996, but with the 997 I could justify the change over.

Any similar experiences from the 986 compared to the newer models?
