New car desire

Astons are gorgeous. There are a lot of gorgeous cars on the market, always were. More, even, in Europe. Many of these gorgeous vehicles aren’t really usable as daily drivers, but some are reputed to be perfectly fine for daily use.

I used to love the look of Porsche 911s, but modern ones are IMHO very bland. The '70s era 911s with the whale tails were the best looking, although a modern one can drive circles around the old ones and do so reliably.

The new Lexus I posted is IMHO a really gorgeous and very different design direction, and I’ve always liked Lexus reliability. The SC300 was also beautiful, but most were pretty bland. The new one, while I consider it gorgeous, is, I realize, extremely expensive. It’s a hypercar, not a family sedan.

The only way I’m ever going to be an Aston driver is if I get a job as a valet and skip town with it instead of parking it. It would be a barrel of fun until the police stop strips ended my brief love affair… :smiley:

I like that Lexus you posted; it’s just the nose that turns me off on it. To be honest, there are a few other makes of cars out there now with similar noses; maybe Mitsubishi, Jaguar, and a few others. Nose or not, I’d still like to have one. :smile:
