Best of both worlds IMO (though I personally own a 987.1). The weight difference between an equally appointed Cayman and Cayman S is less than 100 lb so I'm surprised you can tell a difference.
I'll have to drive a 987.2 next. I've seen video reviews saying it felt more raw than the 981.

I drove the S first then went into the base model expecting less but was pleasantly surprised with how it felt a touch more engaging. They had the same array buttons below the shifter, not sure what other options made a difference:
