The vast majority of car buyers prefer fuel efficient, reliable, and functional cars. Relatively conservative styling is simply coincidental to that.
I suppose that's true. However, I'd never pay $20k for a new, boring, but practical and dependable car. Not when I can spend $7k or so and get the same thing used, maybe with some cosmetic imperfections. If I pay over $10k for it, I will enjoy driving it or I won't buy it. I'd buy a used Camry or Accord if they would sell for around 6 or 7 thousand. Since they don't, I've got no interest in them. I'd pay significantly more for a Nissan Maxima than I would either of these other two, or for a proper sports car like a Corvette.

I’m with you. I just bought an 84 BMW 6-series coupe for $4k, and it is so worth it. You couldn’t pay me to drive an Accord or a Camry or whatever this nondescript new Chevrolet thing is.
