Yet another hypothetical.

[duaned]

Fast and ugly for me. I need something to match this driver.....

[DJR MAN]

When I was a kid I'd pick the fast and ugly....



25 yrs later and hopefully a little wiser, the good looker. (and hopefully my skill can make up the less HP)!

Anyhow I drive the car not look at it. And I really could not care less what others think, the same car would be ugly to some and not to others, like your quote above for e.g.
So I choose the fast one. Regardless of what it looks like. And with fully paid up fuel I could drive it fast.

[mik]

its a difficult question unless you know what the cars are being offered ..... if its a car i like i would have the fast ugly one, but whats the definition of fast? too many questions.

[Darkr]

Ugly is a strong word, and while I own an XT I don't consider it ugly, yet I have spent all the money (almost) on making it go faster. While it's a bit like flogging a dead horse. I haven't spent much at all on making it pretty compared to going faster.

Basically I want, Okay looks and great performance :]

I voted "The less fast pretty one" because less fast doesn't mean slow :]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. (Thats what mum always said about my looks. )

Well now that you mention it

Just remember good looks are only a light switch away lol

You see that's where a survey like this can be difficult because, as you say, what looks nice to one person is hideous to another......I'm actually not a fan of the GT-E look, in fact I'd rank the F6 higher than it in the looks department

[BlackLS]

Lets put it this way, with my opinion on the most sexy and most ugly new car available.

Aston Martin DB9 with a Saangyong Stavic engine, or a a Saangyong Stavic with a DB9 drivetrain.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I wonder how many chose their vehicle because OTHER PEOPLE thought it looked good and they just wanted to "fit in".

Probably a few...Although can't see why soemone would wanna do that.....Back in the late 70's a few mates of mine drove and modded the 1963 model Fairlane Compact, a few imported to NZ from the US back in teh 60's and became cult cars in the 70's for young guys... Those in the circle of mates who didn't have one wanted one....except me I bought a TC Cortina intead ....They thought my Cortina was as ugly as I thought their Fairlanes were....ha ha

I don't know how many, but I can tell you that none of them are people that bought an AU falcon

[GK]

Pretty one.

For me, cars are not just about performance, but asthetics as well.

I happen to really like the shape of the AU. I have two.

Not me, I have an AU. That's also why I didn't buy a BA.

Spot on, I picked the fast and ugly one.
What's that saying, beauty is in the eye of the beholder..???

[4Vman]

Like it or not "(kinda)Fast and ugly" nearly sent FTE/Ford broke..
Come to think of it it did to FTE..

If ive learnt anything about the Australian performance car market its that style, herritage and image is more important to sales than outright performance...

[Charliewool]

The fat ugly one or..
The less fat pretty one...
Isn't it in the eye of the beholder?....
(Sheeeesh.... Flappist and his mind ganes)

[Charliewool]

Ohhh bejesus..... I needs me glasses. there was "s"s in there

[fiery]

Well this is easy to answer in my opinion

Of course the pretty one has to be the pick :

You have to like the one you are driving as you also need to wash it and if it is ugly you wont wash it and will hurt it instead of being nice to it when driving it :

And yes Charlie it would appear you need glasses or spellcheck :

[TURBOTAXI]

Walk quitely and carry a big stick.

Ugly and fast.

[benoxr]

I have a BA XR6 (taxi pack with the lot) so it must be good looks, not performance.

[Mr Hardware]

I happen to really like the shape of the AU. I have two.

I happen to really like the shape of the AU cos its strange and brutish. I have two too!

Well those people are idiots. Maybe if the OTHER PEOPLE were paying for it, you might give a damn about what they thought :

I dont think anyone would take a Ssangyong over a GT or F6 no matter how fast it went.
I went pretty and less fast

[onfire]

I drive an AU falcon.. enough said. The fast ugly one.
