I turned trails off, and it made a huge difference, it does look better than GTA3... but it still looks ugly in general to me... maybe it's just the old setting and the ol school cars. The bright lighting still looks fuzzy, with or without trails.
I think they use the animation of player models too much too. I mean, seeing two guys shake hands when thier hands consist of about 6 polygons each isn't exactly pretty. GTA3 has the same problem too though
