I read quite a bit how the 986 is shallow or tame when compared to the cars of today, not a very fair comparison considering the the design is rapidly approaching 20 years old. I for one think the subtlety of the 986 will actually add to its longevity as the design is timeless IMHO. Do I wish for more HP, a engine with a better track record...of course who does not. That being said I have a hard time using the power of my S as it is, I cannot imagine having 3 times the HP at the wheels......but I would like to try it
