A 981 GT4 was a step above the BRZ, but I can't comment on a base 981 or any 987 (I only drove a 987.1S a bit, not enough to form an opinion).

I feel that communication in cars, particularly steering, is such a subjective thing that it's hard to make comparison between people's opinion on a single car. Need to figure out some overlap in car experience (cars you and the other person both drove and share your opinions about those) before giving weight to comments on things like steering feel.
I agree with you on the ND2 being numb. And with the Elise having benchmark steering!

The 987 steering was quite good in my opinion but the 981 lost some of the road connection.
