No, a Leprechaun sprinkled shrinking dust on yours. For 96-99.0 it is smaller.

Default Nope. It's so you don't clobber your mirror on other cars and such ...
European streets tend to be very narrow, the small mirror does not protrude beyond the door skin.

Default Ever been to Europe?
Small narrow roads and whatnot. They just were too lazy to change it for the US cars, like the license plate holder for the 96.
