Great driving in that clip. As to the OP's question, a 996 should certainly have more shove in a straight line, but I absolutely agree that the 986 is a more balanced platform.

In my case, the only way I'd "upgrade" to a 996 would be to a Turbo or GT3. Even then, I think I'd still prefer to drop a 3.6 into my S and keep the mid engine platform.
