Super vs Super: 2018 Hot Wheels Porsche 934.5 and 2016 Porsche 993 GT2

December 15, 2017

The Super vs Super feature continues, with another obvious one. I will try and get more clever on my pairings, and Porsche vs Porsche isn’t clever.

Both are Porsches (duh), but they are also racing cars, and sport interesting Real Rider wheels. It is actually the wheels that made me feel like they were a good pair.

The plastic look of the rims on both models has been a topic for collectors, but considering the look of the racing wheels the real cars sport, I think both look fantastic.

Overall, the 934.5 wins, at least for me. A simple deco, and AMAZING color, and the white Aero wheels are perfect. The best feature for me on the 993 is the wheels. The deco doesn’t work as well as it could.

But I’ll take a Porsche Super any time.

I agree that the 934.5 is the better Super…for some reason, I really love that shade of Spectraflame. Additional deco would have been nice (as I said in a different post) but simplicity is also appreciated, and the white aero wheels more than make up for it.

The 993, as great as the casting is, is just not an attractive Super in my eyes, and the orange wheels are just goofy. I’m not particularly distraught that I never found that one, but I sure would like to snag the 934.

As a Super, I prefer the 934.5, but as a model (the one I really want) I prefer the 993. Does that make sense? Probably not.

Oh man, this just makes my rage at the porch pirates that stole my two Boulevard 993s a couple of years ago fire right back up. Everything gets shipped to my work address now GRRR I prefer the 934.5 out of these two, on the hunt!

The 934.5 super is way better looking in hand than when I saw it in pictures. I was lucky enough to find one on the pegs, it is one gorgeous super and I agree, its the winner between the 2. Although I do love the 993GT2. I do have one loose as well. Nice post!
