So, which of these cars do you think look the best?

2014 chevy cruz

2013-2014 dodge dart

2014 mazda 3

2014 nissan sentra

... I probably missed some, but you can add those in yourselves if you want. 

 

 

I forgot to add the scion, but too lazy to add that now.

 

Personally I think the dodge dart and mazda 3 look the best.  Many more look pretty nice though.  Try to choose based on looks, not brand perception, I did not ask what you think is the most reliable.

 

I am impelled not to squeak like a grateful and frightened mouse, but to roar...

Most of the small cars are around $17K USD, so a GT3 would be about 11x more valuable (MSRP is $188,000 USD). :P

well starting prices, but by the time the car leaves the lot with "extra" features to make the cars look like the ones in the pics, you're probably 25-30k.

No love for hatchbacks? I wasn't expecting you to post pics of my car, an Accent, but how could you overlook a Golf or a Mazda 3?

I personally find hatchbacks hideous.  They ALWAYS look worse to my eyes than a sedan.  The tesla looks so good, even though it is kind of a hatchback, because they made it look like a traditional sedan, the shape is just more attractive to me than some ugly flatish backed car vs a swoopy curvy slope...y kind of backside.

 

hatchbacks are neo station wagons, the horrors.  That is one eurocentric taste in cars I am GLAD is not widespread in Murica.  USA.

I am impelled not to squeak like a grateful and frightened mouse, but to roar...

I really love hatchbacks, they are just better than a sedan. I have no idea why hatchbacks/wagons are not so popular in the americas.

From the list i still like the Elantra's styling it is just different than the rest and its the least boring while staying proportionated (im looking at you mazda 3). The refresh was quite good giving it more modern lights. The dart its also quite good looking.
