Default 997 turbo vs 992 c2s both stick

thinking of test driving a 21 c2s stick. has anyone jumped from a 997 turbo to one of these newer 992's? Any feedback or notes?

the 997 tubo is very special as the last stick turbo and last mezger engine but the new cars intrigue me a bit

If you love your 997, don’t do it. Just don’t.

I loved my 991.2 and took a 992 test drive on a lark. Goodbye 991.2.

Well, I went from a 997.2 C2S to a 992 C2S, both stick. I loved the 997, if circumstances hadn't forced a sale I'd be happy to have it today. Only thing I would change is the tech / PCM but it seems there are plenty of options on that front.
