This question is rather subjective, so I'll put my two cents in as well. I like the more tradtional, faster pace (especially for Kyrie) done by Solti and Herreweghe. If you want crystalline sound quality, go with Herreweghe...it sounds like they're in the room with you. However, some feel his version lacks a certain passion. Solti's version (the live recording on the anniversary of Mozart's death) includes the ritual liturgies (i.e. prayers spoken aloud) and has a huge choir whose presence is really felt in the more aggressive points of the music. Just blows you away. Both use fantastic soloists, so they're pretty much even there. I will say that Auger (Solti) has what I consider a more period approach and enunciations whereas Ruebens' (Herreweghe) voice holds steady with modern inflections, if that makes sense. ;) I'm not trained musician, so it's sometimes hard to put my observations into words.
