Blau,
As an everyday car, of course the 996/997 will be a better choice. I just drove a brand new 997 (less than 1000 miles) and, although a great ride, it didn't do it for me. It felt like any number of luxo-sedans out there. That being said, my everyday car is a luxo sedan, but when I want the raw experience of a sports car I drove my Carrera.
I think if you buy a 996 you should buy it because you like it (ie., driving feel, styling, practicality), not because it is a Porsche. As an early Porsche guy you know better than most that a 996 may as well be made another manufacturer. They have no common thread.
