Which body style of Trackick, Trackvit do you like better?
« on: July 10, 2006, 12:33:08 PM »
I'm wondering which gen of the Trackick, Trackvit people like the looks of best.  I really prefer the looks of the 99+ Trackvit to the 98- Trackick, but I've read people here saying the opposite.

Depends.  I'm not a big fan of the 2-door 99+ Track/Vits.  Just looks goofy to me, although I do think they get better as you lift them.  Something with the curvier body and the itsy bitsy tires...the body looks to big I guess.


However when it comes to 4-doors I'd have to take a 99+ any day.  The curves and slightly bulkier look fit it a bit better in my opinion.

i prefer the older style for both. i really like the look of my 97 sport 4dr. especially when it gets the lift in the next little while.

i like the newer style 4 dr.s as well, not to big on the 2dr versions though.


i think a XL7 will be my next family wild wheeler/camping/exploring rig.

My fave is the 2-door tin-top Sidekick.

Too bad I don't have one.

I've got a 2-door 95 soft-top, a 4 door 95 hard-top, and a 99 GV.

Interesting, that is exactly what you have ;)  Although I do agree with you, the 99+ 2dr looks a little funky IMHO. 

I have to go with the 99+... they look good with 4drs and I need 4drs to take the family out.  Also the cleaner look without the GV's body cladding is much better, but some good vynil wheel flares look nice too bad they have crappy mud flaps build in .  Dang that's exactly what I have too ;)



It would be perfect if I could get the wheel flares shown in this calmini vehicle pic

I am with ajm and maplebar on the 2 door 2nd gens looking a bit goofy. I really like the 1st gen 4 doors as far as looks but the more I see lifted 2nd gens the more I am on the fence, especially after I lifted mine. for 2 doors 1st gen rules as far as looks bt 4 door I'm undecided

the back end of a 1st gen 4 door looks really awesome but the nose is a but stubby. on a 2nd gen the front end and a few other things on a 2nd gen are pretty cool looking
2000 Grand Vitara.. boondox coil spacer lift w/ pro comp 2 inch lift shocks and ome struts. 225/75 R16 Kumho Mt's, powdercoated wheels, rear brake line relocation and stuff to acomodate. custom exhaust and intake along with some 1 off accesories.

I'm surprised no one likes the 2 door 99+.  I don't like the fact that it can't take as big of tires stock that an older one can, but I like the looks better.  Plus I like the 2 piece top.  Also the 99+'s feel like they are made of real metal, not the thin stuff the older ones are made of.  I guess that is why they weigh 500 pounds more though.  I like the fact though that my 90 isn't worth much so I don't have to be afraid to wheel it.  Not sure I'd want to wheel a newer vehicle.

looks to me like the frame may be a bit more subtsantial on the 2nd gens therefore maybe that's a tadd heavier as well.. don't know

I am actually leaning twards liking the 2nd gen 4 doors. now that mine's lifted I can imagine it with new tires and tinted windows and it's pretty much my dream vehicle as far as looks minus the fact that I want more lift

Personally, I would love to have an old 2dr tintop...
