Requiemdk 1st Gear January 7, 2011 Share January 7, 2011 I used to think that the Lamborghinis hold this title.... until the Maserati GranTurismo came along. Now that is one car that exudes class. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KARTer 2nd Gear January 7, 2011 Share January 7, 2011 Hi all I decided to start a thread to discuss YOUR opinions of the most beautiful continental car ever made, here's mine, Lotus Esprit V8 I agree the Esprit is beautiful. IMHO it beats the McLaren F1, almost all the Ferraris, even the Lamborghinis (also coz the Esprit's lines are much simpler and therefore more timeless than the Lambors). Its angular-wedge shape is unique and still looks fresh today. The old jaguar E-type has sexy curves and is beautiful also so. The Aston Martin DB9 is also beautiful with simple yet convincing lines but 10 years from now I am not sure. There are a few more worthy body designs ..... why not you get pple here to nominate say 5-6 really beautiful and timeless models and do a poll, just for the fun of it??

KARTer 2nd Gear January 7, 2011 Share January 7, 2011 Audi R8 ( Looks Only ) Everything looks good but i dont really understand the plastic side panel just after the door??.... IMHO the side panel seems to be an after-thought and doesnt really add anything to make the body look more beautiful. just my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KARTer 2nd Gear January 7, 2011 Share January 7, 2011 (edited) I don't know if British car can be consider Continental, since its a term the English like to use for mainland Europe. ANyway, Ferrari F40 Ferrari F430 Mclaren F1 Lambo Gallardo Lambo Mercilego (spelling) Aston Martin DBS Lambo Muira Zonda In terms of being timeless, only F40, F1, Muira, DBS above are old enough for consideration: personally I think the Muira beats the F40, DBS, and F1, but not by much.

KARTer 2nd Gear January 7, 2011 Share January 7, 2011 Merc E Class Coupe Aston Martin DBR As a saloon-derived coupe, the E Class Coupe is not bad. The Peugeot 407 Coupe (by Pinifarina) is another such beautiful coupe.... there are a few others also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDrago 3rd Gear January 7, 2011 Share January 7, 2011 I personally find the Mitsuoka Orochi aesthetically appealing....

Sith Neutral Newbie January 7, 2011 Share January 7, 2011 In terms of being timeless? Aston Martin DB5.
