Got a chance to test drive a car very similar to the one I have on order...base with 6 speed and 19" wheels. Car felt very solid. The exhaust note was very good...didn't rev it aboue 4,000rpm. The 6sp manuel was really smooth. It is similar to the 7sp in the 991 with one less gear. I have a 6sp in my 997, but this one feels much smoother with shorter throws. Wish I could have spent more time in the car...guess I'll have to wait a few more weeks till mine arrives.
There won't be a lot of 981 in my town this year as my dealer says he will only get about 6-8 allocated. FYI, he has about 6- 991's on the lot. They are not selling too well in our town.
