one drive in that cruise ship cockpit and you will get a real sense of how old and outdated the 986 is. their is nothing wrong with some luxury in a sports car. let's face it 99% of us use the car on public roads . I actually find the 986 steering to be annoying at times with all its "feel" . their are things you want to feel and things you don't. Porsche knows this and has been dialing out all the annoying stuff with each model update. I think I would prefer the new steering.

The new steering has less to do with "dialing in wheel feel" than it does meeting future mileage standards by reducing parasitic drag, all the manufacturers are heading that way.
