the 944 vs 951 is like driving a MG (talk about loud and uncomfortable) to a miata (less loud and uncomfortable)
that said, the miata and MG are similar chassis styles (both convertibles as well), and the 944 and 951 are VERY similar chassis styles

I've always been a 928 fan. Actually, it was the car that got me into Porsches.

951s seem to be holding their value well....and because of their performance reputation probably will for some time to come. 968s may hold their value well by virtue of the very small numbers made and it was the pinnacle of the 944 legacy. 928s....jury is still out. The GTs will do well, value wise, but continue to drop as miles mount up and the GTS was made in such small numbers that the values will be high for a while, especially for the lo mile collector cars. I like them all. Even the 911s but I really don't plan on buying a rear engined car at this point.
