I had been surfing Car Gurus and Porsche NA for almost a year in anticipation of my lease termination in August. I'm actually turning my car in early after the inspection next week. I personally don't understand the "daily driver"/comfort argument. I'm a car guy, and driving this thing on a daily basis is great. I think I would have been very happy with an M2, but for me, this is going to be Christmas morning, every day for a very long time. |

I planned to wait for an M2, but for me the 997 was a more exciting driving experience. The performance is probably about equal, but at this point any performance oriented car is so damn fast that the driving experience has become a much more important factor.
The RR pendulum effect is rewarding to master and so unique that any fan of driving needs to experience it. The rear engine also gives you SO MUCH grip. With warm tires I can floor it in first gear out of a slow turn and it won't break traction - with PSM on it won't even be triggered. That just isn't possible in a FR or even a FF car. Quote:
On top of all this you are driving an icon. It is the same reason why the 1M is more exciting to me than the M2. Maybe I'm getting too soft, but my emotional response to a car is playing a bigger and bigger role these days. |
