Interesting as I just got back from a test drive on a 05 Base 987. I was expecting a lot more from the car in comparison to my 99 Base 986, but I just didn't feel it.

Mind you the car only had 54k miles and it did feel a little tighter and well put together. At the end of the drive, I just couldn't justify the extra money to take the jump.

Overall, my 986 just felt more lively and the sound of the 2.5 was much nicer than the 2.7.

Don't get me wrong, I did like the car. In fact, if I didn't already own a Boxster, I probably would have made an offer on the car.

I was thinking it would have noticeably more power, but I didn't feel it. Guess I should go test drive a 987 S to see a difference in performance.
