Same for cars. If a heinous car drives like a dream and makes your pulse pound faster, then the sight of that car will bring about a positive emotional response.
In the case of your E63 M6, you love how it sounds and drives. I think it's ugly, but since I haven't had a positive visceral experience with the car, I can't appreciate it and can only judge on how it looks. I think the F13 is a much better looking M6, especially with the with the rear and improved headlights. Maybe if I drove them back to back that opinion might change.

Understood. Like I said, I’m just one of many who are pissed off that bmw chose to make their last “short” wheelbase drivers car look like that not to mention weigh just about the same as a similar equipped m4.
As for the f13, it’s gorgeous better looking but the e63 literally weighs 400 lbs less and has a v10 that is produces eargasms.
