You have to imagine them without the big wheels, carbonfiber, special brakes, diffusers, tiny mirrors, etc. It would look a lot more normal without the bling bling.

Mk1 and mk 2 thread was so close to eachother on votes, if I remember correctly. MKIII just blew the other two out of the water.

so question... anyone still want a MK II? like if Toyota released a FT and it's the MK II and Scion had the MK III. Would the badge still make you buy the MKII? I'll even make it in a dicussion, If Toyota released MK I who would still buy the MK III?

I'd buy Mk II in a heartbeat, even if it cost more than the other makes.

Its all about wheelbase to me, I'm not that tall so this car is ideal for me, I like the MK3's dimentions already

The MKIII taillights are sort of blehh. I would rather have the MKII taillights or something with a little more definition.
