Since we are resurrecting decades old threads I'll add my two cents.
I faced the same dilemma, only with new cars, in February 2005. The 987 had just come out and I had been waiting to see if I liked it better. My dealer had one 986s left over, well-optioned and in Guards Red, for the same price as a 987 2.7. I drove both repeatedly for a week, decided on the S.
Luckily, at that same time my search for an 04 SE 550 yielded a two- month old model with 192 miles on the clock for less than either of the others (plus private party sale in GA means no 7% tax). So that's what I ended up with. Torque, baby. That's why the S feels so much better.
