Even though the numbers aren't to far apart....there is a lot more low-end grunt with the base 981 vs base 987. Add the magic-insta-shift PDK....and I have ZERO reason for an S or GTS. I am having a very very difficult time keeping the speed inline now. More HP/Torque is just beyond me.

It would be interesting to see a real-world lapping comparison between my 981 PDK base vs a 987.2 R (which I've driven at speed). I think it might be very close.

This is the first time I've spent any length of time with the PDK...and while a manual is always the pure way to go...no arguement...I can understand why the Porsche engineers are hot on this thing (GT3). It's amazing. So very smart and so blindingly fast at shifting.
