Talk about a mind screw. You set the whole thing up, initiated the tangent, and imply there was any contention at all? LOL.

Yeah, that one was on my list. I have read that Alfa is considering building it.

There can be only one, the DB4 Zaggot. Might not be the fastest, or most powerful, or high tech, but damn that sheet metal work will make a man week in the knees. Now only if I have a million $$$$ to buy one.

Ok, I admit it, I tend to like cars that can be described as somewhat... umm... quirky. So here are my votes for the 3 most beautiful cars ever,

1. Lancia Stratos, this thing just looks like it wants to kick your butt, even when it is sitting still.


2. Studebaker Avanti, absolute elegance, and in profile it kind of looks like a RX-8 :-)


3. Porsche 914, yeah I know, most people think of them as "boxy", well damnit, boxy can be beautiful!

Come to think about it, if we're talking about styling, I really think this thing is amazing:

http://www.sounddomain.com/member_pa...page_id=602721

It's called the "Grandmaster" from Chip Foose, He and a guy named Dave Peterson built it and it has won a ton of awards including the "Ridler" etc. I know some folks think Foose is whatever because he's on TV now, but this car is just insane. Seems like everything he touches has an awesome "subtle custom" look to it.

Gotta be the Testarossa/TR

When it comes to the most beautiful car ever, I have to make a case for the Testarossa/TR. My reason for this is that, if this car was released for the first time in 2004, I think it would STILL be considered a hot, sexy, stylish car. Are there any cars that could claim that 20 years after introduction? The Lamborghini certainly couldn't... it would look like an old-school exotic. The Testarossa had an incredible balance of clean lines and cutting-edge styling. You could put it alongside the latest exotics and it doesn't really show age.

Odd choice, that's certainly one I wouldn't have seen though would show up. There's a black S8 I used to see driving around Milwaukee all the time with limo tint, lowered, nice wheels, and a few other things done. Some people claimed it belonged to Latrell Sprewell, it looked stunning regardless.

I second that--my favorites are the DB9, 3rd Gen 7, XK8, 911, DB5, G35 Coupe, 2002 XJR, 57 Vette, and all the pics already posted.
