OK how about a few limits to stop this becoming another "most beautiful car of all time" thread - car must be sold new anywhere in the world in the last five years, and cost less than say, £40k?

How about.... Volvo V50, New Land Rover Disco, New Merc SLK, Audi TT, Lotus Elise, Lexus IS200.....

Over to you....

NO mate its my thread, i started it, i make the rules ........lol.

The idea was any car and any value. I was trying to see if people said porsche carrera / F50 / maccy F1 etc or whether they prefer other stuff like nobles, farbould (or whatever its called) Invicta etc

The way to narrow it down is say it has to be ten years old or newer.

Gutmann - you know I wasn't trying to take over but it was all getting a bit mega car tastic. So, back to the plot, 10 years old or newer, any value?

Porsche 993 C2 pure and simple.

Ferrari 288 GTO (has there ever been a better looking car?) is outside the 10 year window

And I'd have to add the just-superceded 5-series, which in M5 form oozed sophistication and menace. No stickers, no batwings, no shouting - pure class.

Aye, 288 GTO for me too. Simply gorgeous.

911 2.7RS (blue decals please) comes a close second. And I despise 911's with a passion.

I would have an RX-7.

Get it all smoothed over and looking pimping and you have a car that looks considerably more expensive than it really is.

As well as usual suspects.. Murcielago (sp?), 360 Modena, Carrera GT, any modern supercar, blah-de-blah-de-blah

Classic - Ford Shelby GT500 for me (Gone in 60 Seconds-like), closely followed by a Ferrari Daytona or a '64 Ford Mustang Convertible.

Modern - probably a Ferrari 360.

I'd be happy with any of the above quite frankly!

That Porsche is ugly!

Best Looking car? depends on individual, just like some of you would like a big breasted bird as other will a big butted bird.

IMHO nothing can beat the Ferrari F40, its like heaven.
