Not surprised by the 991/997 difference as I drove both on Monticello. The 991 is not necessarily a more fun or playful car but has vastly better stability and speed through turns (as well as a better ride). The 997's feel on stilts in comparison (as did mine in comparison to the 987).
The 981/987 difference is more subtle, I only got a short drive in the 981S. Felt like the e46/e90 difference (zsp to zsp) just a bit more competent and perhaps more settled ride. Wider feeling.
