You want a mostly track or mostly street car?

For mostly track I prefer a n/b 993, w/ a solid adjustable suspension and decent tires under it.

The w/b tend to be heavier have poorer aero and understeer more.

If you just like the looks of the w/b S, a 2S would be easier to deal w/ than a 4S, again less weight, less understeer

there are advantages to newer and older, depends more on p/o than year.

Any of them are great street cars, find one that appeals to you and jump on it.
