I think you're definitely a minority on this, most people seem to really like #3

I think most will say that the MK2 tried to do too much and was just too "busy" with everything going on. Mk3 really cleaned things up and made it come together nicely.

I dislike the front bumper on concept 3 the most. It's like something overdone from concept one in a bad way. The rear overhang is very large, I wish they keep the same length as the concept 1 or 2. Beside from those, it's okay to me.

I like this topic.

I loved the MkII and dislike the MkIII because everything about the MkIII just seems "bloated" to me. It feels "Americanized" and the rear looks more boxy.

I really liked the MkII because it reminded me of a batmobile style thing. Which other people may not like, but I do.

It felt darker... well, it was black, but that's not my point.


I said it before. I'd pay extra for the MkII style.

I would trade a testicle for an FR-S right now.









Maybe not one of MY testicles but I would figure something out.

Agree. The rear is like CAMARO meets LFA. WTF? Americanize all the shit they can? I know it's for American consumers, but it's Japanese.

Has anyone done or can someone do a chop of the MK2 and MK3 together in the same colour?

Im trying to see exactly how much changed between them. Sometimes it seems like a lot and sometimes not so much.

Im not sure if the dark colour of the MK2 hid a lot of the lines that were on show with the MK3.
