I have a 987S and I agree it doesn't feel particularly fast. I think this has everything to do with the lack of low end torque. Torque is what makes a car 'feel' fast. Jump in the Corvette, Viper, 911 turbo etc.. and you feel the torque at low rpms and you feel like your flying.

Just my thoughts. The car IS fast but doesn't really feel that way, until you look in your rearview mirror after the light turns green and everyone is a little dot in the distance.
