Had a test drive in a Carrera S 997 (355 BHP) last Thursday (23rd).
Abiding impression is that it is exceptionally civilised for such a fast motor, just so easy to drive.
By this I don't mean its not not engaging, but it just works perfectly, no lag, no squeaks, no roll - no disconcerting "lurch" when yiou change direction like a GTI. Just very fast involving drive. - Feeling of total safety, security and granite build.
That said it does 0-60 4.5 Secs !!!
This is what I lucked into until Turbo arrives:
