Welcome
I traded in my 986 w/5 speed on a 987S with PDk. First time in the 987 I got the impression of a bigger heavier car. The raised front fender line reminds me of my 81 corvette. The 986 IMHO is a light steering whip it around the corner slot car that says I am light, fast and nimble so lets scream. The 987S is feels more sophisticated, steering a little heavier but more precise. The suspension is very good is stiffer being an S but it absorbs uneven road bumps. The S says I have 65 more horses a transmission that you or it can and will shift down in a turn and not upset the suspension. TAKE ME TO THE LIMIT! It can and I do.
I find the PDK to be a tool that me to be a better driver. PDK challenges you to compete with it. I have had 5 Porsche 5 speeds but the PDK gives me an edge that you may or may not need. When I first got the car it was a little less responsive the dealer reprogrammed both ecu's and it works great.
I don't know if it s good or not but now my wife demands her wheel time.
