I always wondered about the model number logic, 1st gen 986, 2nd gen 987, 3rd gen 981 ???

Was 988 already used or did they not want to infer that it was twice as good as a 944

The 981's are really neat, but with all the electronic help I wonder if it still feels as connected to the road with the driver?

I guess it will keep you out of too much trouble if your a poor driver, miss judge the road conditions, perfect for us older geezers with slower reactions, bad eye sight and lack of depth and speed perception

Although a few days of performance driving school and tracking will correct all that.
