This doesn't exactly look like an ugly jelly bean...

Neither do it's siblings (IMHO):

Want: #1 Caterham but I wouldn't be able to fit a babyseat, #2 probably an ISF, maybe splurge for a C63 AMG

Since I don't currently have a Lexus, I will answer the other way: What Lexus would you rock?

Current: Porsche Cayman
Would rock: '08+ GS350

Would rock (Non-Lexus): Cayman or Cayman S with PDK

Three cars, so three hypotheticals:

Current: 2008 FJ Cruiser
Would: 4Runner Trail Edition or New Grand Cherokee

Current: 2007 S550
Would: Maserati Quattroporte, Aston Martin Rapide (I know almost 2x the price but I love this car!)

Current: 1993 SC300
Would: (this is a current realistic list as I am pondering replacing my trustworthy first car) 2012 CLS550, Porsche 911, MB E-cabriolet, or.... the Camaro ZL1. I know, I know...
