I have put a few miles on it and love the car. The boxster was a bit easier to drive as it didn't rev as freely, but I am learning throttle rev matching. The nose gets light when pushed, but the grip on the road is amazing. I have to mess with the brakes as they don't feel like they bite like in the 986. I bought some SS lines and a motiv so hope that helps otherwise I may pick up a set of girodisc rotors and pagid pads. Funny thing is the number of people who try and egg you on to burn out the tires.
