Default Porsche emblem, New or Old

What say you... new or old style for my 87 Turbo...
Shouldn't affect the value much even though the car only has 56K on it the engine and all the plumbing is getting redone... Plus I have to repaint it anyway...





The new style has Black Porsche lettering.
thanks for your oppinion JC

+1 on new. Looks more balanced with the black letters.

Personally I like the new style, I want a silver one for my car but, they are too damn expensive.

Neither. Use the sticker they use on the race cars.
