Pictures The Most Beautiful Automobiles Ever Produced


But as the brother of my ex Italian girlfriend put it, who is Italian, lives in Italy and worked in the automotive industry, "Ferraris are beautiful and nice to look at, but if you want a reliable sports car, buy a Porsche".

Ex Italian? So what is she now:t-crazy2:
 
While waiting for my letter to come up for my Euro Tunnel crossing to Calais, there were a slew of exotics and antiques parked in the lot in Folkestone. There was another red and silver McLaren F1 as well.

I also ran into eight-time world motorcycle racing champion Phil Read. He was going to the same Alfred Dunhill event.

A couple more favs....

I hate to agree with Jeremey Clarkson on anything but I think car design did reach it's zenith in the mid 60's!

For me, the list is too long. But the most beautiful contemporary car is the Alfa Romeo 8C. Everything about it is passion, and surprisingly it's Wolfgang Egger, a German, who designed it.

Nope he didn't, he was only the chief designer :D

Still a very big role, probably the most important one from a design perspective. Very much like Christopher Bailey is responsible for the Burberry Prorsum fashion collections although he has a huge department of 50-100 people who give birth to various designs which he then reviews, edit and approves. But it's a shame that the poor fellow who sketched the car didn't get the same credit as Walter.

At least Karim Habib has managed to make a name for himself:)

I agree. It is most beautiful car in production imo, DBS comes close, but 8c takes the cake.
 
A fantastic list - but missing the classy Mercedes models and some BMW ones. :D
