Yep -

Reminds me that when I had my 2002 - it was the car that I just plain enjoyed driving. It was not the fastest, not the best handling, nor the nimblest... Just the most balanced and enjoyable car I have ever had. (granted - the 997 is close behind - but with the 2002 being a very 'analog' car- it is just you and the car - nothing at all electric in between - the Porsche does have all the modern touches - and that takes a bit of it away - in this context)

I expect the 2800CS will be similar to the 02 (when I get it back). But - just like your first kiss, the 2002 will always be tops for me.
