I hate those cup wheels. The rest look fab IMO.
The tea tray looks best IMO.
Best looking car overall has to be the 930 IMO. (oh well I haven't got one or a tea tray).

The bottom one is best - nicest spoiler and no goofy Euro side-marker light.

PWNED!

Never been a fan of turbo twists. I dont like flat rims without a lip.

Also you can see with each progression the rear end on these cars (roofline) keeps getting higher and higher. The newest 997TT almost looks like a hatchback. Not even any room for a whale tail back there.

My fav has and always will be the 933 TT. But the question of the day is: Which one is most rare? 964 3.6? 993 Turbo S? 996 Turbo S? 996 GT2? I guess they are all rare cause I don't have pics of those. Haha

The 1992 964 3.3 Turbo S and the 1994 964 3.6 Turbo S both only had about 80 examples worldwide.
