Best Automotive Design of All Time
Weigh in with pics and a reason, if you are so inclined. Your response can apply to ANY design, not just Sports Cars or Corvettes. I am expecting some eclectic answers to this one.

1962 Ferrari 250GTO is too sexy for my brain. It’s sitting still in this picture, but I watched one race at Limerock over Labor Day weekend about ten years ago and it was awesome! https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...8853f6a3c.jpeg |
1936 Cord Convert (Speedster ?) Supercharged. after that Mercedes 1956 300 SL Gullwing, after that 1963 Jaguar XKE

Gen 2 Viper GTS Coupe. Love the lines in the car. Fund to drive too.

I'd have to agree with the E-Type, but I'm also quite partial to this '63

Some outstanding choices. I always liked the '65 Riviera with the clam shell head lamps. That generation of Buick has some super clean lines. Hard to beat.

A 66 Ferrari 275 GTS gets my vote!

The Ingrid Bergman 1954 Ferrari 375MM. A one off built for her as a birthday gift from her husband, Roberto Rossilini, the famous film director. Enough to take your breath away. |
Duesenberg Model SJ. Absolute American automotive aristocracy.

The Jaguar E-type reimagined...
Closely followed by this: |
The Miura is near the top of my list too, as is the Ferrari 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" Spyder.
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...ffd960695e.jpg But my personal favorite, has to be the late 60's Lola T70 coupe. It was primarily a race car, but a few have found there way onto the street. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...a47013ea05.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...2ab17fce44.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...162a06b9c5.jpg The Penske/Donohue Lola T70 MK3B, that won the 69 Daytona 24 Hour, may be the prettiest T70 of them all. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...5501c0e12c.jpg |
Although before my time, I always liked the 40 Ford Coupes. They made a large car look smaller and the entire front end is just perfect.

I love them all, but I really like the Ford GT-40. I like the 2005 Ford GT as well. Jerry

Many good choices. :thumbs:
Although I don't have a picture I always wanted to buy a Pantera. I like the idea od an Italian body with an American engine but was afraid I would cook to death in one. |

Here 'ya go. '68 Hemi. |
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...e3f550d7a3.jpg
Someone mentioned the Jaguar E-Type. Absolutely stunning design. |
