Exactly ! To me, I like the way the GT-R look. It is boring to have a sleek design to reduce wind resistance. It is interesting to see a muscular and boxy design to reduce wind resistance just as much.

Anyways, that GT-R look manly and muscular, while being sporty altogether.

Fair enough - beauty is subjective.
I highly doubt, however, that the GTR will be found attractive by more people than say, a Ferrari or Lambo.

It's also a fraction of the price. I prefer the looks of the gtr compared to most cars in its price range, especially the American ones.

Here is how I feel about the R35.

^so true lol.

I love the gtr and will gush over it if I see one. But I'm more into style which the gtr does not have. It just looks like a big blob with an insane amount of performance.

A beautiful car need not be expensive. The Twins look pretty nice, and no one will call them expensive. The MR2 has always looked good. Price and aesthetic appeal don't necessarily have a high correlation.

True, there are obviously a lot of factors. While the mr2 and ft86 are not expensive they share traits common with more expensive cars like a rear mounted engine or very low hood line. This is what allows them to have that more upscale appearance. The gtr is definitely a bigger car, giving it more of a bloated look.

Gush over one? I see one a few times a month where I live. My impression? Give me a 7th gen Celica lol. Tons of power put into an absolute unattractive fat ass car.

I've only ever seen a handful of them where I live. I gush over how much of a technological marvel they are. Not so much how they look. They should've made it look closer to the r34.

I posted the GTR because it was the first thing I thought of after seeing the new "Supra's" body lines.

That's right.
The 12 of us do know what the 2000GT is.
