On the bright side. Porsche - there is no substitute.
Meh, I am so far past the Porsche marketing with 30 years of 911 ownership with club racing and competitive concourse. I just traded a C4S in for the M2C and adore it. The new 992 did absolutely nothing for me and is a very sanitized evolution of what the 911 once was.
The balance and road connection of the M2C is better and more direct. I still own a air cooled 911. Porsche is far from perfection but I get it if you need to sample what kind of car they build. Life is short and honestly if you are playing at this level of BMW or Porsche, you won't make a bad decision.
I think honestly the Boxster/Cayman is now better than the 911 as a sports car (although I still love the Carrera T and GT cars), only issue is that Porsche still holds it back (such as GT4 transmission) from stepping on the 911's toes since its the heart of the brand.
