I am interested in what other people consider to be the most beautiful production cars ever built: Show cars and concepts don't count here, I'm interested in cars that were sold for street use. Beauty (whatever that means) is the only thing I'm considering here (e.g., the Mangusta had treacherous handling but it was much prettier than its successor, the Pantera, which was a much better car, similarly, the Cisitalia had on 65 HP but set the styling pardigm for performance coupes for five decades thereafter).

My list, which probably says as much about me as about cars in general:
I've also added the color that I think of them as most beatufil in as that probably has an influence on "beauty."

1938 Talbot Lago SS "Teardrop Coupe" - black
1947 Cisitalia 202 - red
1950 Jaguar XK 120 convertible - British racing green
1954 Lincoln Continental coupe - white or light blue
1955 Porsche 550 Spyder - silver
1966 Ferrari 275 GTB (short nose) - red
1967 DeTomaso Mangusta - silver
1970 Maserati Ghibli - gray metallic
1993 Jaguar XJ 220 C - very dark blue/black
2005 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish - light blue-grey metallic

And I've never owned any of them!!!


Please post your opinion. Thanks

 

I'm going to try to take a shot at this. Keep in mind that I'm only 23 so my list is going to be pretty much made up of more modern day marvels with a few oldies on the list. I may have to update my list later, I'm going to try and do this off the top of my head without putting a lot of thought into it.

Saleen S7
Bentley Continental GT
Lamborghini Diablo
69 Camaro
Aston Martin Vanquish
Corvette Stingray (with the split window)
