Re: I guess I don't much like the way modern automotive design is going.

Chad, I definitely agree with you on Ford. There is not a car I dislike (aesthetically) in their current lineup. I adore the look of the Fusion, Taurus and the Taurus X.

I think that one of the best looking new cars coming out this year is the Ford Flex (http://www.fordvehicles.com/flex/). I love the bold lines but at the same time it is not ungodly ugly and massive (the opposite of a Land Cruiser). It looks like an old woody station wagon, and the white roof accentuates that look even more.

I am, however, up in air on Cadillac. I like the look of the DTS, STS and XLR, but am not a big fan of the new CTS or Escalade (although I was never a fan of the latter to begin with). Every time I see a new DTS I marvel at how simple the design is but how much it stands out. Nice bold lines and a clean exterior make it a great looking car.
