First post here, though I have been in the shadows, learning, while plotting / planning my first Porsche.
I love the 991. It has been the first Porsche I have have really lusted after for a very long time. I dithered and faffed around for way too long before taking the plunge but I picked up a 991.1 C2S Auto two months ago and it is everything I hoped for and more.
I have spent no more than 15 minutes in a 997 and so can offer no useful perspective as regards the difference between the two. One point to make though.....
If you go PDK I strongly recommend Sports Chrono. It was not something I sought; it just happened to be on the car I found and tbh I didn't expect to use it much. In practice though, I hit the sports plus button whenever there's a safe opportunity. Subjective, of course, but to me sports plus mode transforms the car; the engine stays on cam, power delivery is instantaneous and the chassis just comes to life. I wouldn't like to be without it now.
ETA: If I have the hang of this forum thingy, there's a gratuitous picture below.
