Default Most beautiful cars of ALL time?

Ok people, just curious to see some of the cars you lust after. If I was someday to become filthy rich, bet your ass both of these magnificent machines would be in the collection.


so the question is....... what do YOU think are the most beautiful cars of all time? I give it to the two pictured below. imo nothing gets me going more.



Mercedes Benz 300sl

I have no idea how these cars drive (I am sure they are much worse than we think or hope they are), and my list is based on the looks only.

1950 Jaguar XK120
1964 Ferrari 250LM
1963 Lancia Appia GTE Zagato
1959 Mercedes Benz 300SL
1953 Porsche 550 spyder

Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato HAS to be at the top of the list though. Such a beautiful car.

That's a tough question, so I'll break it down by Europe, Japan and USA. When it comes to beauty, it's tough to beat the classics. With the exception of the 59' Eldo, I have all these cars in 1:18 scale.

Europe:

Aston Martin DB5



Jaguar E-Type Roadster



Japan:

Honda/Acura NSX



Toyota 2000GT



USA

1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air



1959 Cadillac ElDorado

Ooh, it's too hard to give just one answer to that. I'd have to spend a lot of time on it, but the 1963 split window AND convertible Corvettes would be on my list.

Lots of fine Duisenbergs.

Ford GT40 (and the GT)
Olds Aerotech (not a production car)
Nissan 300ZX (it may not be very expensive but it is good)
2nd the '62 Ferrari GTO
Citation Z16 and 87SF and the Swift DB1 for you SCCA fans.

I'm certain I can think of others.
