986 or 987?? help please.

Superior is a loaded word in comparing the 987 to the 986.
On performance I can accept that readily. A great argument for best
handling Porsche ever built?
But on design/looks/aestetics/etc. I would have to say its different but
ceratinly not better. That design isn't going to be on any top 10 lists in Excellence.

The 986 design went essentially unchanged for 8 YEARS and was still a great seller.
Will the 987 look last 8 years? We'll see...

I would be very excited to see a 987S version 2.0:

No silver plastic
Color matched side intakes
New inside door panels - I admit I don't know how to change them but just something different.
Better looking wheels. I like the 5 spokes on the silver cayman photos, the one with the spokes that are wider at the rim than the hub. Sorry don't know the name.

AND not to have hijacked the thread....Enjoy the 986S mmmmm, ignore the urge to splurge. The 987 will be there if you change your mind later, they keep making more.

If I had a 986S on the other side of the pond, I'd cruise Budapest.
