as long as they dont design it to look like all the other new Porsches on the market today. The cayman, cayenne, boxster, and every 911 all share similar styling features in my opinion. For instance the first cayenne front end (especially headlights) easily resembles the 997's of the same year, which is fine, but when VW sold their 924 design to Porsche in the 70's, Porsche had nothing like it. SO if they redesigned a 944 it should NOT resemble a current 911 or any other model. Does anyone agree or disagree?

A modern 944 would have to look very modern but also have many characteristics of the original 944's. The main ingredient of course is the hatchback design with an engine in the front. Pop-up lights are no longer allowed to be made, so thats out of the picture, but they can use other ideas like the low-profile black wing in the back.
I dissagree, Porsche is more evolution, the 968 was looking a lot more 993 when it was fazed out of production in favour of the Boxster.
