Porsche 944 Shooting Break

Porsche 944 Shooting Break
I have always had a fascination for the 944. I have been pondering on picking one up to do a LS1 swap to give it just a "little" bit more pep.
Anyways, I was just browsing around on the web today and ran across the 944 Shooting Break, a very interesting car I must say, looks wise at least.
And then what appears to be a Techart Cayman rendering...
May not be the sexiest car around, or great looking at all, but it may just be worthy enough for the "Porsches from the Past" forum.

DP Cargo – Porsche 944 Estate (911 PW News)
DP Motorsport have announced the final edition of their DP Cargo, a ‘shooting brake’ estate based on the 944. The DP Cargo first appeared in 1988, and fewer than ten cars have been built to date, for those seeking a unique but still very usable style of Porsche. With only eight sets of the bespoke rear glass remaining, the company recently decided to build the final five cars, with four deposits already received.
DP built their first Cargo in 1988, after experimenting with the roof of a VW Passat estate laid over the top of a 944 bodyshell. The conversion eventually evolved into a complete remodel of the 944′s rear section, with a fibreglass roof and rear door supported by a tubular steel framework, adding increased rigidity to the otherwise open-backed coupe.
Inside, the custom creation features a cleverly relocated spare wheel and flat load floor. The Cargo is impeccably finished, with colour-matched side panels and headlining retrimmed in leather. The conversion takes two months and costs €18,900 including VAT.

I've seen some of those pics from a book called "Dream Machines," an EXCELLENT book.
I've always liked the 944, I thought it was a different looking Porsche, but I can't say the same for the "wagon" 944. I have never liked wagons at all.
