Hated them. Now like them. They are rare, and were costly once. Per Bruce Anderson, they always got a premium over stock...

Although I am of the thought that all 911 cars should have boobs, I love em . Almost pulled the trigger on a Slate Grey one needing some work . Sometimes I regret not grabbing it . It was 17k. ran and drove good . Can you imagine that now ???

Liked 'em when they were new, but now, I don't.

I've revised my answer.

I still like this slant nose.

It may be functional and fast, but is uglier than a mud fence IMHO.

I need the "Loved it back in the 80's but the look has gone stale now" option.

As a teen in the late 80s they were THE car next to a Countach. Would love to have one.

Love the full race, but street version is a poseur.

Depends.

If it's a RUF BTR, sure.

But a run of the mill SC with an M505 option? No thanks.

Nope. Never liked them. I like the 935 track beast though.

If it's a poseur than you must hate Turbo Look cars.

Yes, should have been spread over 5 choices.

Even though I'm a bit bias, I would have vote 4 out of 5.
