This could get controvesial!!!

I don't think that the Jag is the best looking car ever BUT it might be the most beautiful :eek:

We all look at the world in different ways and to me the Ferrari F40 is the best looking car ever because it's so focused and purposful. I truly would like to see one of them parked outside my front door more them anything else.

To my eyes the Jag that you posted Mathski is indeed a gorgeous looking car and truly beautiful but too me it's more like looking at an oil painting and enjoying what you see rather then looking at something that you want to drive.

This is all very subjective stuff though and a lot of it comes down to attitude as well.

I mean I make no secret that I would like people to look at a car I was driving and say "WOW what a flash *******" (like they would If they saw the Ferrari) where as peeps are more likely to say "WOW, now that car is gorgeous" (which is what they would prolly say if I was in the Jag) :)

It's a nice motor, but I prefer the Jag :)
Also I prefer V8's (the Jag) to V10's (Ferrari).
The noise that a V8 makes is music to my ears :)

You're gonna think I'm really sad, but to me, this is the best looking car on the road:

Yeah the Corrado's are a fine looking car.

Yours is the Storm right m8? (How many of those did they actually make cause I'm pretty sure it wern't many!)

Yep, mine is a Storm. They made 500 of them, 250 in Classic Perl Green and 250 in Mystic Blue (looks purple). 20 of these were automatics (10 in each colour). Pretty hard to find at reasonable prices. Grr.

well i disagree with both of yas :E

the jag is nice but then it just looks like practically every other new sports car out there. yawn

the F40 is nice too but its too square and boxy for my liking, needs newer styling. yawn.

the TVR TuscanR is THE best looking car ever. :)

The best thing about it is the paint scheme that changes colour depending on how hot it is (I think), that is shweeet !!! :)

Swany - don't forget that the F40 design is I guess about 15 years old now. :eek:

That TVR paint finish is an optional extra. Each litre of paint costs £500 and the Tuscan needs nine litres :eek:

LMAO @ drive by :laugh:

Lo

I tend to agree with da cookie man...the jag is a lovely looking car, the shape and lines of the bodywork are great, same go's for the TVR, but you get nice bodywork design on a hatchback these days.


For the pure sportscar appeal, the F40 does indeed look the business, but really the jag and the F40 are two totally different classes of car, so maybe a little unfair to compare the 2 in the same paragraph.


I quite like the Lotus elise, lovely bit of styling and also sits on the tarmac with a fair amount of purpose ala sportscar.


As for the VW, well they just rock...Period :)
