I think it's the front bonnet of Gen1 that wins over the Gen2. Gen1's front bonnet looks very low, unique, and sporty looking. It gives the Gen1 a more exclusive look than the Gen2.

so true, I've been waiting for this paradigm shift to super lightweight cars too but certainly it's shifting to the other direction. It's the era of the two ton sedans now.
