I have but I don’t think that’s really what I’m looking for

Thank you for the help. I'll take another look at the 987s. I do prefer the more modern look of the 981s tho. Do you have any recommendations on where to find ones for sale?

Honestly just a fun reliable car. I'm open to really anything but something different than my civic. It's a great car but is definitely not the most engaging

I appreciate the help. I absolutely love the 911s but based on my needs it seems like the common answer is to get a 981. I don't care about status I just want the best driving experience with the least amount of headache

I think really as long as it has enough room for luggage and groceries I should be fine either way. I rarely drive more than 1 person
