I like that 944 body...alraedy has that flared look that the 924 SOOOO desperately needed.
I say (from a non-engine point of view) that is all in the tires.
I rised a 99 Mazda RX7 in showroom stock SCCA. I rode on the steel 15 rims with 70 series tires.
When OI raced I ran 50 series on the 14 alloy rims. Made a world of difference in the 0-40mph start.
On my current dd I run 245/50/18 instead of 245/45 on the stock rims. really helps keep the rpms down on the highway cruise
