You can obviously have your opinion.  If you would prefer Mario Kart graphics to GT5P it would be fair enough, but in objective terms, I believe GT5P looks the best.  Things like poly count, lighting and textures matter, if still for some reason you prefer how a car looks on another game with less polygons (that is detail), worst lighting, etc. that is your personal opinion and may be respected, but I don't think you can claim it looks better objectively.  Still if you are happier with PGR4 graphics I don't need to convince you of the contrary, I guess, just enjoy it.  

How can there be an objective view on which game looks best? Technically, I'm sure that Gran Turismo 5 is a more advanced game, but does that mean it has to have anything to do with how we percieve it? The best graphics ever, in my opinion, belongs to Shadow of the Colossus. It has low resolution, framerate drops and is run on currently underwhelming hardware. But no game has ever reached the heights of that games beauty.

Graphics is about what we see, and how we percieve it. It has little to do with technical specs or polygon count, and everything to do with how the game uses those specs. There can be an objective truth on the technical level, but not on the graphical level. Because you can measure neither beauty nor pleasure.
