I concurr. I bought mine 2003S in Dec of 2003with 3300 miles for 47-48 there abouts. I love the car. The 987 has some improvements with a nice bump up in hp but to justify spending for a new car again I don't think so. I'll wait a couple of years since I'm having a blast with mine anyway and then when the engine gets tweeked a couple of times then at that point get it.
I don't want to sink thousands of dollars into a car to modify it. The 986 is plenty quick as is, in NY with 55 mph speed limits which is rediculous what is the difference whether it goes from 0-60 in 5.5 sec or 5.2 as in the 987. I do think that the 987 interior is nicer than the 986. Well at least it looks richer to me. The workmanship I would say is the same. Cluster lay out seems better and larger and the center console looks more modern with the 987. I prefer the Carrera alloys which I have in my car. That is the long and short of the 987 vs 986
