911 v. 986

...mostly...almost fully...i second pilot's feelings...although...i may have choosen a little different retoric...to 73's and Pilot's point, the 911 continues to do well precisly due to: 1. status, 2. ledgend, 3. refinment...it's a great car...no doubt...and has been engineered to be so (out of necessity) despite itself...

i considered a 1999-2002 996 in lieu of the my current 986...as this is primarily a play car for me...the feeling and feedback from the road is what pushed me in the direction of the boxster...

...also, i do also agree that the 718RSK was the inspiration for the 986...mid engined...light, responsive....these are all good characteristics in a sports car...

cheers,
