Follow us on TwitterRandom Capture: MkIII Golf GTI
VW’s 3rd-generation Golf GTi wasn’t an absolute hit with fans of the original hot hatch when it was new, but thankfully as time goes by the appreciation for these cars has grown in the VW community to an impressive level, where today we’re seeing really classy MKIII’s on a regular basis. Today’s picture comes from NCDubs.org member VDUBNLUVN, courtersy of the “favorite shot of your car” thread.
I’m a big fan of the fish-eye lens effect – it works well with the industrial background, and provides a great contrast the clean lines of this slammed MkIII. The Europlate’s a nice touch, too.
The GTI has always been a great little car. A MkI would be my first choice, but the MkIII above is awesome. I like how the owner’s wheel selection plays so well with the black side moulding – the car is predominately white, with black trim, yet the wheels are the opposite, contrasting without upsetting the balance of the design.
Not a fan of the roof racks, but it works well in the industrial setting. The owner got a great shot with this one. Crisp white and black Vdub in a world of greys, here.
Thanks for sharing!
