As I mentioned in an early thread, it's weird that the MKI looks more production-ready than the MKII. I mean the MKI doesn't even have a wing, CF bits, or other stuff that probably won't make it to production. The only thing that doesn't look production on the MKI are the gigantic wheels and wheel wells. MKI's a lot cleaner, so my vote goes to the MKI. That said, the MKII does looks more Italian/European from the side.
There are things that the MKII pulls off nicely. I actually like the slight front fender arch, which reminds me of the Ferrari 599 wheel well a bit. I DON'T like that BMW M3 knock-off vent (why oh why). C-pillar looks more Scion-like and is worse. Otherwise I like it, just not as much as the original. Considering how concepts sometimes get butchered when turning into a near-production version, I'm very happy though (I think of the Honda CR-Z). Couldn've been a lot worse, and it doesn't really change how interested I am in this car.
