Timeless styling......besides a FGT what car styles move you/have aged well

[GTdrummer]

My redneck all American list

57 TBird --my dad had one growing up
67 GTO--my brother had one (starting to see a trend?)
92 Viper--my kids had one growing up
57 Vette --my cousin had one---later became a nun--true story

Shelby Cobra 427 SC without a doubt!!!

NSX
288 GTO
Later (orig) Mini's

 

[dmark1]

Early 60's Ferrari GTO = unquestionably #1 of all time without any close competitors
1959 Ferrari Testarossa (NOT the Miami Vice one!)
1962 Ferrari California (NOT the new one!)
Ford GT
Auburn Speedster
Lamborghini Miura

THERE is the TOP FIVE!

Puts the Ford GT in some pretty heady company. When you compare the prices of these cars to ours, you can see what a deal it is !

Oh my gosh! I would love to see it in person sometime. :thumbsup

It's a California car that was put in storage in '75 after it's owner became ill with MS. I pulled it out last year and brought it here to Idaho where I plan to pull and inspect the motor, trans and replace the cooling system due to it not having been started or even moved for over 35 years. The interior is a true time capsule and looks factory new the exterior needs a little work as it spent some of its first year of life in a shopping mall parking lot.

I have a '73L in white with 13,000 original miles. Still has the original Goodyear Arriva's on the rear.

Goodyear won't make replacement tires for it either?


Back to the original topic...
Cobra
Z8
'65 GT-350

We all seem to agree that the FGT is timeless beauty. This question has nothing to do with performance, just body style. What cars do you look at now and think, damn, that car is still as awesome as it was the first time I saw it.

For me I have two, and I guess I am partial to them because I owned them. I have always thought the NSX had a timeless body and I am also very partial to the 850CSI. Both of those cars still get me looking if I see them out on the roads.

......and I am a bit partial to any of James Bonds cars......except the BMW Z3 and the 740. What were they thinking in those movies?? :lol :cheers

Model T and the Yugo.

When I read cousin, my first thought a guy owning the 57...Then my head started going to bad places too...

 

[ByeEnzo]

AC Cobra 427 is probably the most copied car of all time. How many different companies make a version of this car?
I'd love one myself.

 

[w. mitty]

A few come to mind:

Ferrari 250 GTO
427 Cobra
NSX
D Jag
E Jag
Early 930 Turbo
Early 240/260 Z

Maybe the most beautiful car presently on the road: Aston Martin Vantage v8. Stunning!

'Certainly one of the front runners anyway.

I have to say that every time I see a Maserati GranTurismo I think what a gorgeous car it is.

i might be biased since it's mine, but the 67/68 fastback are classics
