I haven't driven any of the newer Porsches, but they seem too big to be sports cars. I was passed by someone in a new Cayman recently and I was surprised at how large it looked. The Carreras seem even more ponderous. On the other hand, the quality and design of the interiors is much nicer than my 986.
