Interesting perspective! My Aero8 is a Series 1 (I only drove Series 1) and my comment was based on this because I felt that it was close to a 964 RS in feel and spirit. Should I take that there was a demarcation in the rawness of driving feel/experience following the Series 1? If so, I should restrict my analogy to the Series 1.
Then we are in agreement Phil. I think that I had a ride in your car on the way to collect my new Aero SS. There is a big difference in the 'feel' of the cars with the Series I definitely being more hard-core.
