Ok /o/. I think ive narrowed my next car down to one of the following.
24v VR6 gti or a zzw30 mr2
Here's what im considering
GTI
>orgasmic exhaust note, this alone could make the car worth it for me
>fantastic aftermarket/moddability
>infinitely more practical
>likely to be less reliable than the mr2
>smells like crayons
MR2
>ive actually driven one and it was really fun
>toyota reliability
>great drivers car for the price
>aftermarket is not as good but engine swaps are easy and well-documented
>doesnt look at sharp as the mk4
>insanely impractical
Neither car will necessarily be my primary driver, but either could have the potential to become one. I just want a car that puts a smile on my face whenever I drive it. Both can be found local to me for similar prices.
What do?
Mr2 inb4 snap oversteer

MR2, hardtop

If your priority is the smile on your face, like it should be, the MR2 is the way to go every single time.

My vote is for the GTI, oversteer is a meme, just
utilize the hand break, if you REALLY need to.

Im leaning towards the MR2 but i think im going to drive a gti before I decide
MK4 Golf wont put a smile on your face unless you set it on fire. get the MR2
>>17652090
the MR2 is one of the least reliable cars ever made. Do like just a little bit of research.

Apart from early models (pre '02?) having precat-failures (remedied by removing the inside of them), they're pretty much bullet proof. What are you talking about?

Literally what the fuck are you on about
Just curious but how many here have actually driven one or both of these cars?
>>17655994
>almost 5 hours later
none i guess
>>17652090
GTI
zzw30 looks like dogshit

Im not shallow enough to let the outward appearance of a car determine whether or not im going to buy it, but it doesnt look at good as the gti from most angles.
