Agreed, John, but the latest 911 has become a softer more GT character than sports car, judging by my own brief drive and others here who have driven it. We certainly didn't feel any anticlimax when  we climbed back into our 4 year old 997/2 after driving the 991. I'm sure the forthcoming GT3 will refocus that, but the Boxster / Cayman will be the sharper sports car in the Porsche range this side of the GT3, and more enjoyable at useable road speeds, particularly here in congested UK.
