I have to agree with the WRX STi, it looks too much like an ugly toy prior to the 2004 models.

Bangel (sp) car design suck. The Z4, 5, 7, and now the 6 series all look lame. I tend to not like them at first, then they grow on me and then I come to my senses. Can't wait to see what he does to the gorgeous 3 series.

Well, it's a tourer...granted, it has a rather large engine...but it's not very performance oriented. I think it looks horrible. It's tubular lines makes it look shapeless and soft. Even though it's long, the word that comes to mind it "pudgy" for some reason.

Let me add my vote to this car ... I am sure it is nice feature wise, but daaaaang it's ugly. I can't get past the wheels ... they look like hub caps!

This is by far the king of the hill in this category. Awesome performance, all-wheel-drive, but looks like ass and it's a Subaru which have become the preferred car manufacturer for those that prefer same sex relations... Rainbow sticker is now a standard feature.

Yeah not to be anti-gay or anything but in my area there is a town called Ashland that has a large gay community and they all drive Subarus. I, in fact heard one gentleman call his car a "Ssssubaru", I almost died laughing.

So if someone handed you two sets of keys, one for an NSX and one for a Z8 you wouldn't pick the Z8?

I don't think he's saying that. I think he's just saying he thinks it's ugly...which I whole heartedly disagree with. The Z8 looks hot.

What does it matter to you if I think the Z8 is ugly? Thats just my opinion. Am I imposing my opinion on you? By the way I do own a NSX. (though recently totalled)So you will not need to hang me two sets of keys.

It doesn't bother me, you're just the first person that I've heard say that the Z8 is ugly. I'm pretty free-minded so unless you're going to put a gun to my head you won't be imposing your opinon on me.

Sorry to hear about the NSX, that's a shame. What are you driving now?
