Jalopnik hates these for some reason. About 50 of the originals were painted one color because they weren't selling, which makes me sad.

you can feel really cool with one of those, though. because it's 1/50.

Those were real quirky cars. Only have seen one. You can tell them folks are from Minnesota, eh. Never get out in the sun.

Oh a Harlequin. There is one of those in Edmonton. I see it on my favorite bike riding route. There are pretty rare.

I've only seen one and it was in Oahu, Hawaii. Very good head-turner. Price-wise, NP.

Because it is ugly, and looks like a junk car. It's not even a GTI, iirc.

That's quite subjective, to be fair. Plus, mk3's were never stunners, except to VW fanboys (before I was one), the same people who would recognize a harlequin for what it is.

To each his own.

*begins bragging like a hipster*

I'm betting I'm the only Opponaut who's driven one of these when they were new.

*end of brag*

I worked at a VW dealer in the '90s. We had one in stock, IIRC it was a green base colour. They're cool and all, and I like them, but I don't think I could rock one.
