Captain...you can't even take a simple question and answer it without a whole bunch of drama.
 
My ultimate car of appeal to me...Porsche 911 GT2!!! WHEW!!!

what drama?
my ultimate might just be the GT-R but not because it is especially pretty. Mechanical sophistication and abilities definitely take precedence over what something looks like. Kinda like a good wife...

To a degree I can agree with you on the wife comment. But...if someone came to you and said, you can have ANY car you would desire...what would that one car be? Throw practical sensibilities out the door...what is ONE car that you truly feel passionate about?
 
Me...I've been a Porsche lover since I was a kid. For the longest time, the 959 was a wet dream for me. Now that I'm older (don't know about the mature part...LOL), the 959 gave way to the 911 GT2. That is my unicorn because I'll never pony up $200K just to see what it feels like to go from 0-60 mph in under 4 secs. I can spend a mere fraction of that and take my family to Cedar Point Amusement Park and take a ride on the Top Thrill Dragster and hit 120 mph in about 4 secs.
 
Okay, if I had to pick a car that was attractive to my practical sensibilities...I would take the Genesis, of course!
 
P.S. The GT-R isn't exactly ugly to be honest, it depends on who you talk to. I watched a segment on the Speed channel (Super Cars Exposed) and they had a GT-R on there. Not only can it run with some exotics/super cars...it can carry itself as a daily driver too...SWEET!

my Avalon is butt ugly
 
As a fellow Avalon owner I find that a bit harsh. Boring? Maybe, butt ugly. No. Although, I do find the Genesis a better looking vehicle overall.

have a real problem with the raised "Bangle butt' that many mfgrs. are using these days. It really destroyed the looks of the 7 series BMW IMO. Our Avalons suffer from the same treatment which is what I specifically do not like (on any car ) - that said the car is probably not the paragon of space effiiciency that it is without it. A bit harsh, true

And notice how he took yet ANOTHER swipe at the Genesis? Good grief, he can't control himself!

Considering the bangle treatment is not as pronounced on the Avalon as it is on a 7-Series, do you REALLY think it takes away from interior/cargo space???

I really don't take his dislike of the Genesis grille to be a swipe, he's just saying he doesn't care for it. He's not the first to say that he didn't care for the grille. Now if that were the only thing stopping one from buying the car...WOW!

I really like the Genesis grille. How would you like to have that Acura Beak instead?

I'm with you on this...I like the Genesis grille too. I'm actually considering getting the Genesis grille that's made for the Azera!
 
You know what...I was trying to think about what the new Acuras looked like and you nailed it on the head...beaks!!!
