Shocked to see people mention the Panarama....the car is beyond ugly, so ugly that even p-car fanboys have called it an "epic fail".

Cheaper version (if you live in the EU);

the Bentley Arnage would be the unique proper sedan for me.

Very proper, lots of leather, old school luxury car looks, and an automatic transmisson

The quattroporte certainly isn't as good looking as the GranTurismo, but it is certainly up there on the uniqueness and sporty factor.

The Alfa would certainly be unique as well, assuming it comes to the States.

Front half of the panamera is great, rear half not so much.

Thanks for all the input, I will pass it along.

About the Aston, what do you mean by worth the wait? Are they not available yet, or?

Thanks again!

I don't think the Panamera is ugly. It's grown on me (much like a modern-day BMW). The Citroen you posted is just ugly. Tries too hard. Didn't like it when I was in Europe.

Maserati FTW! I love that car and can't believe people would pay more for an S Class or anything else in its price range.

That is a laugh riot - people really aren't that familiar with RR and Bentley, it seems.

My pick would be the Arnage/Seraph, maybe a green label (with the BMW engine, to keep it in the family), and they still look good. If he's not married to the idea of a sedan, maybe a Bentley Continental R - fast, luxurious, farily rare, not crazy expensive.

Outside of those, my choice would be a Quattroporte.

If you really want something unique, I'd suggest the following:

Aston Martin Rapide
Masarati Quattroporte Sport GTS
Audi RS6 Saloon

Even the Hyundai Genesis (go for the v8 engine ) wouldn't be a bad pic. I've seen it on the road, looks nice.
