Yeah, it's gonna be the 911. Without sunroof. The extra bit of space makes it much more fit for me in numerous ways.
UNLESS I find a Cayman GTS in white, at an offer I can't refuse, to the point where I'll deal with slightly more limited headroom for a short period of time and get a fun experience out of it.
I'm starting to reconsider even the Macan GTS. I'm basically all over the place, lol.
But 911 with no sunroof is the ticket. Now to actually be able to find it.

My no-stories, no-sunroof GTS is still available at Knoxville's Harper Porsche. I even know what they paid for it!

That baby is quite a ways out of what I want to spend, but DAMN, a no-sunroof 991.1 pinnacle of N/A sweetness (on the non GT3 front) is my absolute ultimate.

Ive got both a GT4 and a 991 GTS. Both are superb and have their own niche.
The GTS is our Grand tourer that we take on trips through the mountains. Comfy, lots of space and a pdk.
The GT4 is our canyon carver/track rat. It's a much more "fun" car to drive than the GTS. The exhaust note is intoxicatingly fun. It's the car I grab the keys to after a tough day. Pure driving bliss.

Base 991.1 vs 981 GTS with both remaining stock?
If driving fun is the priority, I'd go 981 GTS with no second thoughts. A (seriously, seriously) sweet spot as a driver's car. As a road car, it might even be sweeter in some ways than a GT4 (said as someone who tested both but chose a GT4). 991.1 base Carrera, good as it is in its own way, would never enter into a driving fun comparison with a GT4—at least not for me.
If you fit in a 981, I think you'll have more fun in a 981.

I'm not suggesting that a 991 doesn't have more headroom than a 981 (especially when neither are equipped with a sunroof), but where is it primarily coming from? Lower seating position? Or just that extra inch at the top of the sloping roof profile? Or a combination of all of the above?
