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.
I'm judging this just by pictures. I've never seen a Gen2 in real life.
I will reserve judgment until I see both Gen1 & Gen2 next to each other in real life. But yeah this front bonnet thing is really making modern cars look very ugly in real life.
It's not exclusive to the 86. I've seen it in like say the new Honda Civic. This raised bonnet is more glaring in smaller cars. The manufacturers try to hide it with styling cues.
Anyway, it's not like the Gen2 is hideous or anything so it's all good
