If it makes you feel any better, I find the power plant in the 997.2 to be underwhelming. The car is heavy and doesn’t feel as nimble for handling as any Boxster.

To me, it’s “meh”. There’s nothing especially appealing about the 997.2 to me. It looks too plain to me. Not wide enough hips. Not enough power for how heavy it is. Looks dumb when the tiny little spoiler is deployed.

I think the 991 and 992s have more character from a styling point of view.

At this point I’d seek one of those out.

And finally.....the Boxster still always drives better.

(Have to be honest)
