Replying to: fintail (Jan 22, 2009 11:33 am) I like the first and mildly redesigned second gen Lexus LS too. Very hansome lines imo. Replies to this message: fintail (Jan 22, 2009 12:33 pm)

Replying to: boomchek (Jan 22, 2009 11:43 am) Yeah, I don't mind those either, they were derivative of something good. Lots of them still out there too, so they have proven themselves.   The 01-06 (I think) design has to be a derivative of the W140, too. It wasn't quite as decent looking, a big isolation tank.   The current pretentious model does nothing for me, although I should give credit that it is finally its own design.

Bentley Azure (convertible) driving in the evening. Huge car, and has ton of presence. Very nice.
#4602 of 5310 Hyundai Genesis sedan.. by kyfdx HOST Jan 25, 2009 (6:25 pm)
.. first time I've seen one, "in the wild"..   Take away the star, and it looks like a Mercedes from the front... Still not seeing $30K-$40K+ for one, though...

Not completely new, but I got behind this commuter car on my drive home from work today, and just had to snap a few pics   A good around-town runabout   Snappy acceleration for highway merging   Great for cruising suburban roads
#4604 of 5310 TL vs. Genesis by texases Feb 01, 2009 (12:47 pm)
Coincidence - saw a new TL (black) parked next to a new Genesis ('sapphire blue pearl' they call it, dark). There was not a line on the TL that looked good. Odd front (especially in black, I imagine silver would conceal the grille surround), odd front fender bump, odd rear side window, heavy looking rear trunk, narrow/slanted rear window. The Genesis looked fine, nothing that offended, clean lines. If I had to choose between those two it'd be the Genesis. I'll be going to the Dallas car show in two weeks, I'll compare the Genesis to the CTS. Replies to this message: fintail (Feb 01, 2009 4:36 pm)

Replying to: texases (Feb 01, 2009 12:47 pm) The Genesis looks fine as it is 100% derivative of existing German designs   The TL really is a train wreck.   Local MB dealer has half a dozen GLKs sitting on the lot now. Not worthy of me snapping a pic...the world doesn't need more dopey little SUVs.
#4606 of 5310 Toyota Yaris by guss Feb 02, 2009 (11:42 am)
4 door hatchback. Did these just come out for '09 or have they been around awhile and I did not notice them ?   Anyway, they look much more useful than the sedan. Kind of a cross between a Fit and a Aveo. Replies to this message: bumpy (Feb 02, 2009 1:05 pm) kyfdx (Feb 02, 2009 1:18 pm)

Replying to: guss (Feb 02, 2009 11:42 am) Yep, the 5-door is new. The Fit, Rio, and Aveo all come in that configuration, and the xD is really too big to be a suitable substitute.
