Completely. Going from a slightly-modified 951 to a Cayman S was an eye-opening experience. The Cayman is a better car in every way except useable low-end torque. Granted, the scream of that flat-six -- especially after upgrading to a Fabspeed exhaust -- is worth the price of admission, and the Cayman is undeniably faster when allowed to rev to redline, but the 951 just LAUNCHED from around 2700RPM; the flat-six felt anemic at that RPM, although it's more fun to drive at top of the rev range. Apples and oranges, really.
