Default 951 over 968

Gee, how many pink cars would you declare as maculine looking?? Paint a 928 or a 930 pink or any other car, and yea, it's going to look feminine. For starters, the 951, even the regular 944 for that matter, is better rounded, has a more aggresive look, sportier looking and a more rugged looking front nose. The 968 really looks like the little sister of the 928, which is as masculine as they come, inside and out...

Your comments make me laugh LFA951. My wife drove a silver 88 951. Are you saying that she is masculine????

I am talking about cars here, not people, I will repeat, the 968 looks like a chick's car and I have never seen a woman driving a 951, facts based on personal experience. Here's another observation~ most femininine women prefer to drive non-masculine looking cars

As my wife says, the 968 looks more "Porsche-ish" because of the headlights/nose.

What do women really know about cars? Much less, Porsches? That's why the majority of women drive Honda Civics, Accords and Toyota Camrys.... and just to educate you on "Porsche-ish" The 944 is derived from the 924 which is derived from the 914 which came out back in 1969. The 924 was developed in 1976, before the 928 in 1978, so the 944 has more of that Porscheish heritage...

Evan's wife must know a thing or two because the 968 headlights are reminicent of the 1949 Gmund Coupe, the Porsche 356 up through the 911 series and all of today's models (997,987,987CS, and 955).

Yeah, she also doesn't like the 996 front end, and she's a major fan of all 911 styles (except that one).
