personally i think 951's and 944s2's look way better than 968's. with 968's imho it's like the front end doesn't match the rest of the car. now granted the mirrors and door handles are awesome from the 968, but i'd take a 944s2 any day

The 968 in the article belongs to a Rennlist member.

I think the better of the two, would be a bastard child of the two. A 951/S2 body with the 968 motor, mirrors, handles, and rear color-coded bridge spoiler. Retain the S2 5-speed trans.
