Imposing.

I seem to remember a road tester saying they didn't react to road imperfections because they just pounded them into submission!

Hard to agree with you...it is very very high quality design work in that and it looks/flows fantastically.
Thats why there is no right or wrong on something like this, only opinions.
"horrible looking thing"

No, your opinion has no basis other than what can onlt be a "base" reaction. It is devalued by your inability to accept the quality of the design skills/creativity which would/should never allow the CX to be called "Horrible"

Now, this is "horrible looking thing"
We like different things, thats all.

Mostly everyone has nailed it - Series 1 XJ6, original M5, Guilia QF, Rover P5B Coupe but also this:

I think the Cortina Mk III was a far more compelling design than the Granada.

I’m a big fan of the E39 5 series, just perfectly proportioned...

...but Alfa’s are my thing...

Love the 156 (facelift) but I can’t find a picture of my gun metal grey one.

I also have a soft spot for the 159... this was mine...



And this is my current car... i’m partial to this too...

there are some 'interesting' choices and some interesting choices. While I can't deny that the S8 (for example) is a good looking car this below knocks it into a cocked hat - don't even get me started on the BM's.... bland, bland, bland

That car would look bland if there was one on every street corner.

If we are going with "modern" vehicles, anyone remember Fords "Interceptor" concept from 2007?

E32 750iL







I absolutely LOVE the E32. I think this might be the winner for me....just unsure if I prefer this or the E34 design.
