My favorite..is mine! I've never had another, so I really have nothing to compare to.
same here!Even though I love my gen4, I've always had a thing for the rather sexy gen3.
I am a little torn between the 08-09 and my 2005. Very little difference, thus my problem.2008-2009
I think they're the best looking, they're the last years available with the turbo 4, last years of the enormous sunroof, last years that they look more like a wagon than a crossover, still have the gorgeous electroluminescent gauges that power on self test (the 3.0R and XT anyway), etc.
Maybe I'm slightly biased! I wanted an 08-09 when I bought my 2004, but couldn't afford one. I just recently got my 2008 and absolutely love it.
The '08 got some nice stuff (a few of these things came in the '07 as well): Integrated key and remote, auxiliary input/MP3 CD capability on the stereo, electroluminescent gauges (on XT and 3.0R), redesigned front grille, VDC was standard, nicer steering wheel (telescope/tilt, push button for audio/SI Drive/cruise control, my 2008 wheel was designed by Momo, it actually has Momo etched into the leather), etc.I am a little torn between the 08-09 and my 2005. Very little difference, thus my problem.
