The Nissan Micra was introduced as a class replacement for the Nissan Cherry, and was meant to compete with cars such as the Honda City and Toyota Starlet. Being in production for 33 years, the Micra is now in its fifth generation. Which generation of this city compact is your favorite?

Being from the US, my knowledge on the Micra is limited to Wikipedia really. I chose the K10 because I do enjoy the boxy styling of the 80's, and the fact that there was the Super Turbo/R model which was supercharged and turbocharged!
 
That's not the K14 Micra. This is:

Tempted to choose the K11 Micra, which was a significant car in the market at the time for raising the standards for quality and refinement in its class. But the K12 is probably the one with the most individual character. And I remember quite enjoying driving the 'mm-R Cup' car in GT4. So that.
 
Why can't a single Micra look good? The latest looks like a beaver, the K12 is just depressing (although the mm-R Cup was awsome), the K13 is completly unremarkeble. I'm left with the K11 which set a trend into the market, those were quite good actually and the K10 it's just a quirky, unsafe box from the 80's. And because of that, the K10, to me, has more character than the rest.
 
I love the K11, but the K10 has that mojo of being an 80's wheel box, that was turbocharged, and was pretty cool on rallying
