Default Most beautiful production car

This afternoon, during a free minute, I was daydreaming about cars. I started to think about which production car was the most beautiful one ever made. I'm not talking about exotics, show cars or high priced limited production cars. I'm talking about production cars that an everyday person could have walked into a show room and bought.

There have been so many that I couldn't pick one out. What do you think? Which production car was the most beautiful ever made?

Bob

I do too, but I was thinking more along the lines of a car that most people could afford. I happen to be partial to the original GT-40, but that too was a limited run item and way to expensive for most people.

Maybe something along the lines of the 1960s Austin Healy 3000s or the 1957 Thunderbird. Perhaps the Mercedes SSK or the Auburn Speedsters of the 1920s and 30s.

Yesterday morning, my 12 year old grandson called and wanted to ask me what my dream car would be and I told him that I was driving it. He was doing a litle research for school, he said.

BTW, the original GT 40 is a favorite of mine as well as the 427 Cobra.

Ever made? That's a tough one, as there are many choices.

Current though...I'd have to say one of the most beautiful cars is the new Mercedes SL, more specifically, the SL55. That is one of the reasons why there is one in my garage right now.

I love the look of an S2000. Simple, yet.. sexy.

I would say the mclaren F1. After seeing so many Ferrari's, lambo's, etc. the Mclaren is still in a world of its own. Pictures do nothing to show the cars beauty.
