Personally I wouldn't consider navigation to be one of those technologies which goes obsolete only because almost every car has it in the last few years and that trend will continue.

So, did you pull the trigger on the Turbo? Are you more inclined to do so after all these posts?

Sweet ride! Painted side skirts give it uniform look. Nice to see the clear side markers too.
Enjoy...I know I am. The whole "turbo" feel when I press the gas pedal...even just 25 to 50% of the way the turbos kick in. Took mine out for a spin Saturday night and just good stuff!

Well I have never owned a 991 C2. But I currently own both a 997.2 and a 991 TTS. I have driven the 991 C2 so I have some basis to provide 2cents (although that's all my opinion is worth).
I just feel the 991 platform is light-years ahead of the 997 platform. To me, the 997 is very similar to the 996. It's raw and visceral...on the street it's not very comfortable and the hydraulic steering which provides a lot of feedback at the track is annoying on the street. The 991 feels like 2 generations past the 997. It made dramatic changes to the car...longer wheel base, wider track, much better designed suspension together with a softer more comfortable ride. The electric steering is also a huge upgrade for daily driving. It absorbs all the little bumps that got annoying in the 997.2.
People ask why the hell do I have a 997.2 and a 991 TTS. But to me they are so different they feel like they are 10 years apart, not 4. I like them both for different reasons but the 997.2 is now mainly for the track and the 991 is for daily driving.
I just think someone is going to have a hard time going from a 991-anything to a 997.
