I'd also put the 996 fully in the driver's car category. With the arrival of the 991, it's also looking very compact and understated. Pretty light, too, at just over 1,300kg. I really fancy a 996 C2 in Guards right now...
Mah, e36 was the last driver's car that came from bmw. And it was still a porker. The horsepower wars, idrive, and Chris Bangle have sucked the life out of these cars.

If you jump from a pre-89 911 to a 996 it feels like a driving a Lincoln.
