i agree strongly with that list.

You'd have to know more about some of those cars to really understand why they are considered as such, so if you think a g35 with some volk's is the most beautiful thing then probably when you visit an art expo you look confused the whole way through.

Z32 on the list..... :D

Well I'm not saying I completely agree. But it deifnitely should be on there over the 300zx (which is still a great looking car).

I really don't see how the 300ZX made it. I mean, I like them, but I don't consider it to be "beautiful" as far as cars go.

I disagree with the BMW. the 6 series was way better looking for that era. the e30 m3 was much better as well. MY:2cents:

i like the Z32...but ill never understand y people think it looks so good.....imo,the Z31 is a better looking car,i also think the SLR should have been on the list,and the FD is deff one the best looking cars ever,its perfect and reflects its performace....i also think the C3 Stingray should be on there

The 300zx styling was wayyyy ahead of it's time and years ahead of Toyota with the Supra and the Mazda RX7. It may not be as curvy and flow like them but the Jun Blitz 300zx still holds the E/BMS top speed record today set in 1991 @ 419.84km/h. I wanna see someone go over 260mph in a Supra or RX7 ;)

No matter how much I love the Z32 i'd have to say the 240z may be more deserving of the top 25.

true...i think all the RX-7s were amazing well designed...aside from the FC being little heavier...


so guess that rules out the XJ220 or Zonda for the list..........well guess the zonda maybe

I have to agree with the list, alot of beatiful cars, but the 1961 Lincoln Continental, uh no. That thing aint nothing but a big hunk of metal, there is alot of more deserving cars that should have been in that spot, for example 1970 Plymouth Hemi Cuda'...

I thought one of the old Ford Mustangs would be on there. One of those old Shelby's look really good, not sure on the year and all that.

I agree. I honestly can't see how any car from the 90s made it in that list. Later, QD.

The 300ZX looks so...plain! No offense to owners, but compared to the rest of the cars there...it's just...so forgettable.

I'm surprised this isn't there. The 1955 Chrysler C-300

This too...1967 Cadillac Eldorado

Also, the Cord 810.

And the Duesenburg SSJ
http://www.channel4.com/4car/media/100-greatest/03-large/33-duesenberg-sj.jpg

The only 90's car that I think qualifies to be there is the Aston Martin DB7. I'm not just saying that because I watch Top Gear a lot...I've always thought it was an absolutely stunning car.

I'm really surprised no Astons made it onto the list. The DB5 is very well deserving.

I disagree with the BMW. the 6 series was way better looking for that era. the e30 m3 was much better as well. MY:2cents:The E24 6-series was the replacement for that car. As for beauty i'd say the 3.0 had far better body lines.


I really don't see how the 300ZX made it. I mean, I like them, but I don't consider it to be "beautiful" as far as cars go.How old are you? I was 9 when Road & Track released the car in their October 1989 issue. Look at every other car made in '89-'92 and compare the Z32 to it. By today's standards its not that incredible of a car, hell by 1998-2000 it was pretty well dated but when it was released it was a work of art...far beyond just about any car that wasn't a six figure exotic. Even mechanically with it's variable valve timing 1 year before Honda in the NSX. The question is, does it have the timeless styling compared to that of the 240z. If there was ever a car in the 90's to make this list i'd say this one or the NSX...then you might as well start looking towards Ferrari and Lamborghini too. :tongue:

Then look at Range Rover, the only car to ever make it into the Louvre in France. The most prestigious museum in the world and the 1970 Range Rover was displayed there as an "outstanding piece of modern sculpture".

Looks and beauty are far too subjective, there are simply too vehicles and too many opinions to make everyone happy. :2cents:

z32... ehh, not that beautiful. But i knew they'd put the type 57 Atlantic in there :goodjob:. That's a damn sexy car... easily in my top 3. WHere the hell is the McLaren F1, Shelby Cobra..? Hell even the '32 Bucciali TAV 8-32 :D :D :D

I love TVR's. They've got very polarizing styles though.

Take a look at the DB7 that I posted...that's a 1994 model. Can you believe such a beautiful thing existed in 1994!?!?
