While I"d personally prefer to own a high performance car that looks the part, there is something to be said for a Q-ship. To the cops, a mild mannered family sedan. To the overconfident M3 driver suddenly staring at its taillights, not so much so.

Looks.

For example, an Aston Martin is slower and handles less compared to a Ferrari or Lambo. However, it looks sooo damn sexy, no one would care how slow you're going through L.A. traffic...

As a 350 pilot the answer is of course 'both'.

I'm all about looks, speed doesn't matter to me. But I know my 350 has ***** so I guess I have the best of both worlds haha.

I have to have both because if you have the speed then you should have the look to go with it

I dont know why I got a 350 because I am for looks. However, since I have a 350 I guess its speed and looks.

You ain't kidding, no car (okay, within affordable cars...) has ever caught my eyes before like the 2IS did. Until today I still think it is the best looking car below $60k.

I could be biased of course...

i'm @ looks. i like to be an "ikandy". if your going fast then how are people going to see your car. i know its built for speed and looks but i'll just keep engine stock and more on visuals.
