987 is my preference

I really disliked the 986/996 front end when they came out and continue to dislike them.

So for me looks are 987 ahead of 986 although I do like that the 986 looks more curvaceous. I also like the bigger side scoops of the 987 and the 987 rocker panels and rear bumper.

The 987 interior looks much better and is more ergonomic than the 986. The goofy 986 dash reminds me of early Ford Focus - ick! There is more interior space and in the 987. The seats go lower in the 987.

Base 987 has more HP and torque, smoother, wider torque curve, wider wheels and tires, PSM standard.

987's PASM is better than 986 M030 option.

In real dollars the 987 is cheaper new than the 986 was when new (especially early 986s).

Just my opinions,
Alan
