It's a toss up between Elite residence, Princess tower and Marina 101..... just kidding I have some taste.
The only ones I put down are: Shanghai tower wonderfully intriguing design, not sure how it will turn out but looks good in the renders. Sino Steel tower, the facade fascinates me. WTC2, personally I think it's the best of a fairly bland bunch at the WTC. Though I think as a group they'll all look pretty good. Never noticed the Chow Tai Fook tower before, but that has potential, ditto for Kingkey.

Kingkey Finance Center. Everything else ( with a couple exceptions, like Sino Steel) is either derivative or outrightly awful.

1,2 and 3 WTC and the Shanghai Tower. I also love the Guangzhou and Shenzhen towers. Gorgeous.
All the Dubai ones look so cheap and tacky (except for the Pentominium).
