Given that the 951 and S2 are identical from the outside (except for badging, and maybe wheel choices), I don't think it's a huge deal that they didn't make a 951.

It is a huge deal they did not make a Turbo water cooled model. People who buy these types (not 911) of models buy them as it is a representation of their car for the most part. I dont want mine to be badged or labelled something that I dont have. Its pretty simple marketing really, especially if it is a wheel or badge change.
