    My MkII 8V was my favorite, but I have to give VW props for what they have done with the Mk6. It gives a hell of a nod to the old school GTI's, but with a new age, high tech blast.

    But really, I just loves me my GTI's!!!

    I'd say Mk2 16v. I was going to vote Mk1, but the Mk2 kept most of the virtues of the 1 but was a better daily driver to me. Just a tad bigger, really the perfect size for every day use, hauling some stuff, etc. Interior materials were significantly better. The A/C was better, important in relatively hot climes. Great engine. In other words, the car was just enough of a refinement to fix some of the Mk1 flaws but keep the spirit.

    mk1's are cool, especially since they started the revolution, but my heart belongs to the mk3...it is just so much better...Everyones opinion will vary, but mk3 seems to be the dub of choice currently amongst us enthusiasts...
    new enough to be current, yet old enough to be a classic...it really is the best golf,

    did you even look at you poll? blind love is fine... but if you love the mk3 so much you really owe it to yourself to see why the majority of folks that have responded to your poll disagree.

    I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that you have never driven or owned any VW's other than the MK3. Although people do like them, they aren't that great. They were much heavier, mushier suspension, and crappy metal materials (at least the ones made in Mexico).

    You would be singing a different tune if you drove a MK1 or a MK2.

    well i bought a new 1994 corrado slc,very slightly used mk2 1992 16v, had 17k on it,and a new 98 mk3 vr6.I have also owned mk2 vr's, and i just find that NOTHING touches the styling of the mk3.And the mushy susp, hell all vw's stock susp is total crap, nothing fk coils cant sort.The mk3 i think is the epitome of the watercooled cars, perfect styling, timeless looks, 12v vr stock,ac,cruise,leather,roof, it came with everything you need and want, minus 4 wheel drive, which those were available in europe though.First 2 generations Vw's are to square, new ones are to round, mk3 just right

    while the rado was very similar, it just didnt look right compared to a proper mk3 golf.
    i am sorry to those who i have upset in this thread, but i got sooooooo lucky to find a one owner, mint flawless mk3 golf in sequoia green , with 58k original miles, perfect paint, interior, and i am not letting this on e go ever...I am just so excited to be in one again.oh, and the rockers are perfetc as well
    Geld und Macht bringt korruption!!!
    Von allen je gebauten volkswagens,steht man Kopf über den rest,den mk3 golf VR6

    no such thing as a perfect rocker. all the good ones end up overdosing, choking to death on their own vomit, or something else equally stupid to the "mk3 nevar lose" arguement.
