But, overall the car just doesn't have the sex appeal of the others...personally I like it that way

I agree and I like it that way too. I think the one big area that I have always wished would have been designed differently was the quarter panel wheel radius. if it had been raised just another inch or so it would have given the Nova a completely different look in my opinion. I have a project 68 Nova that I plan on modifying the quarters on just for this reason (some day). Deeper wheel tubs from the factory would have been nice too... I wish I could have made it to MCACN. Maybe next year.
