That front end looks very Hyundai-ish.

Many actually, most of BMWs lineup outside of the XM thing and I7, Bentley looks fantastic, Lexus cars look great for the most part as well. Suv wise I love the full Range Rover and Defender, the full bronco, the new GX, most Ferraris, any McLaren, the new lambos, the F150 and ram 1500 in top trim guise......

I can go on, I don't like old car per se since it's more of a matter I want my house paid off before I drop 4k a month on a car. My next two in order will be a 2017 R8 V10+ or the new ZR1 followed by a 2020 Bentley flying spur speed with no more than 20k miles on the spec I want.

I buy what I actually like, price isn't too much of a concern but I want value to be there in some form. They also have to make me feel a certain way and drive well and compel me to constantly look back at them in lots and take random pictures. The LSs I had failed that but I only had them as "safe" buys while I was starting out

Roofline maybe. I know which one I'd take all day long.

The A7 Sedan is going to have much better proportions than the A6 e-Tron Sportback, closer aligned to the current A6 Sedan.
