Which Shimano retro shifters?

I'm getting together the parts I need for my Lotus XTR.
One of the items I need are a set of 3x8 speed ST-M900 shifters.

However I read somewhere else on this forum that M900 shifters look great but are not all that and to use the XT version ST-M737/738 which are better(also a lot cheaper).

My question is, does anybody have experience of either/both types, things to look for and which ones are better.

This bike is not going to be a wall queen it will be used on the road and light off road. I would prefer the M900s but if the XTs are discernable better I will go that route

Finally if anyone has either shifter type for sale drop me a pm.

Thanks
Jonathan
