Personally I think the 993 was the best resolved 911 shape ever....guess I am in a minority here

Really I like the frog eyes of the earlier modes. 993 has a great shape and integration of hiding the bumpers but I dislike 993 head lights and the loss of the frog like head lights and arches.
The 991 has really brought that 50's era single head light look back into modern times. Much nicer then 993 headlights.
