I'm not big on SUV's in the first place but it doesn't look any worse than other large SUV's.

Its on the same level as that funkin' ridiculous looking Infiniti behemoth (I forget its name at the moment-- QX 56?)!!!!!

Give me an Expedition or Range Rover any day over that hulking Lexus eyesore. Once again it proves that Toyota cannot hire a designer for the life of them.

The QX is definitely an eye sore but the Expedition isn't anywhere in this class of vehicle (and ugly to boot!) and the Range Rover is only available for use throughout half the year because it spends the other half at the dealer (although they are attractive).

What are your thoughts onthe 2011 QX...? It will be offically revealed at the LA Auto Show.

The 2011 Infiniti QX56 went on display in the Middle East and some stealthy soul caught a couple of close-up pics from the front and rear three-quarter. It's a much smoother vehicle than the one it replaces, ditching the arcs for hard angles. It also sheds finicky styling cues like the current vehicle's slightly contorted C-pillar arrangement, going for an uninterrupted window line rimmed by a chrome strip. Head on, though, it's grille-tastic.

Body elements like flaring arches are more integrated, and the chrome strip running down the side has been omitted. The rear is an FX-ified version of the new Nisan Patrol, and the package rides on anice set of Infiniti's trademark wheels. We aren't sure if it will turn the QX56's sales numbers around, but stranger things have happened...

The new Subaru lineup is amazing, as is the new Lexus Sedan. The 2 door Accord is really growing on me as is the Ford Raptor. I am not at all impressed with GM or Chrysler, not at all. Ford and the imports are making some good looking cars....minus the cube

More on the 2011 Kia Cadenza, it will replace the Amanti.







Quote:
The all-new Cadenza sedan was officially launched in Korea today where it will go on sale under the name K7. The 4,965 mm (195.5'') long Cadenza will take over the role of Kia's flagship sedan from the 10-year old Opirus, also called Amanti in some markets. Designed under the guidance of former Audi design chief Peter Schreyer, the Cadenza is the production version of the KND-5 concept model shown in Seoul earlier this year.

Kia said that the new Cadenza will be offered with a total of three gasoline engines ranging from 165HP to 295HP for the 3.5 liter V6, with all models featuring front-wheel drive and a new six-speed automatic transmission. The Hyundai - Kia Group's new 201HP 2.4-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine with direct injection gasoline should be among the choices.

According to the Korean automaker, the Cadenza is scheduled to go on sale in most international markets, including North America and Europe, in January 2010.
