Surprised to not see any of the SUVs. Much like the 986, the SUVs are bringing in ooddles of cash, allowing Porsche to push forward on R/D and build cars like the 918. While they aren't saving the company like the 986 did, they sure are allowing it to expand and grow. For Porsche, they are certainly one of the best they've made.

956

Surprised to see that no one has mentioned the 956's since they finished 1, 2, 3 at LeMans in 1982 with Jacky Ickx and Derek Bell. Now that's Grrrrreat.
