I was so disappointed with the 981. It lost the "fun" factor IMO compared to a 986 especially. You are right, you cannot even out your arm out the window now and it does feel like a tank.

I'm on the hunt for another 986 now because the 981 let me down in multiple ways. I tried it a couple of times but it just lacked that raw, Boxster feel.

Great comparison too, high in cockpit of plane (986) vs low in a tank (981).
