Hey, been lurking for a while and finally felt I had enough to offer back.
Here's an update on the JFK lot based on my 20 rentals this year so far:
Roughly a 20 car aisle for Executive; around 25 for Emerald.
I've had my fair share of luck on the executive aisle
2016 Mustang GT convertible
2016 Dodge Charger R/T
2016 Chrysler 300c HEMI
2016 Nissan Altima 3.5 SL
etc.
Expect to see GMC, Chevy, Nissan, Jeep
Don't expect to see Ford, Hyundai, Kia, Buick
Premiums are usually Cadillac; CTS and XTS
There's always a good number of SUVs and minivans off the aisle too.

Meh
Just passed through today and I found the Executive aisle lacking.
There was a few Jeep Compasses. A bunch of Nissan Altimas. A new Dodge Durango that smelled like cigarette smoke and a Toyota or two.

Honestly LGA is better if you can choose going there. Bigger aisle for EA and ES.

Friday 10PM
PS had a Cadillac XTS and Infiniti QX60 for upgrade.
About 10 cars out total, EA and ES not really distinguishable. I saw a Dodge Journey, Dodge Charger, Toyota Camry, Kia Sorrento, Kia Optima, GMC Terrain SLT, Buick LaCrosse, 2016 Camaro Coupe, 2017 Ford Fusion Titanium. I got a 2015 Camaro Convertible, 28K miles but pretty clean. Funny as the greeter was insisting on a $25/day up charge for the convertibles when I asked (there was a 2016 Mustang V6 'vert up front by the office), and then someone moved a minivan and I saw the Camaro right there on the ES.

The only car Yesterday on the aisle that was noteworthy at all was a 2016 Dodge Charger R/T in this light blue color with the HEMI. I took that since the rest was a bunch of FCAR's and a Charger SXT with AWD. Probably should of taken the SXT since the HEMI one eats so much gas Think i managed to spend $40-$50 on gas and only went around 400 miles so far?

Was there October 10th around 5 pm and it was pretty Meh.
2 dodge chargers R/T trim
Toyota Rav4
2 Nissan altima S
Kia optima
Some huge Chevy CUV ( smaller than a Tahoe tho)
Hyuandai Santa fei
Jeep Cherokee
Chrysler 300c ( I took that)
The Chrysler had a California plate and 10,000 miles so I assume was taken cross country and pretty new car. First time I've seen a 300c ever in NYC. The 300's and even the 200's were lower trim options here which is why I stayed away from them.

I was there last Sunday (19th Feb). They had a good selection of cars. A Camaro, which I took, 2 or 3 mustangs, a couple of wranglers (in the executive section, which is rare), a grand cherokee plus the usual full size cars. No other great SUVs though.

MARCH 24 (Friday) 9PM.
Various good options available in Executive that I didn't even bother checking Aisle.
Audi Q3
Mustang
Maxima (redesign)
Fusion
Sonata
Murano
Altima
Rogue
Various other SUVs
In Aisle I did spot an Acadia Limited.
Saw a X3 in Premier Selection. I put my bags into the Q3, took the keys and locked it up as I went back to the counter and got them to release the X3 on the midsize rate under current BMW X3 promotion. Walked back to the Q3 and moved my bags over to the X3.
