Over the mk1-4 and mk6, I think it's the best styled. I was walking back to my car when I noticed the front wheels were slightly turned to one side, which gave it a massive improvement in terms of look.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

^^^^
The Mk2 is without doubt extremely iconic and considered to be the classic GTI, BUT the original poster used the word "gorgeous" and that term only applies to looks. So to properly answer the OP's question, it's not just you mate, the Mk5 is by far the best looking GTI so far. VW have spoilt the looks with the Mk6 Mk5.5 - The front simply doesn't fit the style of the rest of the bodywork. All IMO.

Every time I park I look over my shoulder to admire her as I walk away - It's like when you see a pretty girl in the street.

Mk5 is really gorgeous. I can't help but stare at mine out of the window whenever I've parked it where I can see it (and, sadly, I do try to park it where I can see it!).

My mk5 was nice as most of them are but its not what i would call Gorgeous. I only find certain Italian cars and some Aston Martins fall into that sort of category for me.
