I finally got around to the dealer this morning to see what all the talk was about.
The car was basically what I expected. I actually thought it looked a lot more like the 986 then I thought it was going to. I didn’t get a chance to drive since I was in a bit of a hurry. I spoke to a salesman for a little while. He told me in no uncertain terms that I would be crazy to trade in my 986 for a new one. Not that he thought the 987 was bad, far from it; he just thought the changes weren’t enough. "There's plenty of fun left in your '02" he said. He also told me that he thought the 987 was a better car than the 997, the only thing the 997 having was speed.
As far as the interior, personally I don’t really care either way. I’m one of those people who think that Porsches should have totally spartan interiors. The 986 interior is fine with me, the 987 too. I have a good friend with a SLK32AMG and his interior is really pretty with all sorts of wood trim and chrome and stuff. It’s really nice, but it makes me feel like Im riding in a big sedan, not a sports car, and definitely not a roadster.
