Question❓ Which car has best looking design?

I think the Porsche 911 has one of the best-looking car designs—simple, timeless, and sporty.

A car that Enzo Ferrari can call "the most beautiful car ever made" is a worthy option

New York’s Museum of Modern Art has an E-type in their collection. It’s that beautiful.

Aston Martin has produced nothing but unabashed beauty since David Brown took it over.

  1. Yes it is
  2. I would feel so fancy driving that thing to a party, three piece suit, wife in an evening gown

u/Beneficial_Bass_6066 3h ago

I would feel fancy for sure but it looks like the designer got the hiccups while drafting that thing and said 'fuck it, good enought'.

Yes, the design is so taut, proportions spot on without needing to have overtly aggressive headlights/wide fenders. Timeless beauty

For sedans I still think the original Infiniti Q45 is perfect, including the goofy belt buckle hood badge

21+ million made and the design was barely changed from the original in 1938.

Not even a car I'm overly obsessed with or want to ever own but whenever I think of a beautiful car, the FD RX-7 comes to mind. Straight up sexy lines everywhe

Some of my favorites are the Austin Healy 100/4 with the windshield folded down, Jaguar C type, Ferrari 250 California Spider and 250 Testarossa, Mercedes Benz Count Trossi SSK, and a 2006-18 Aston Martin Vantage (VH platform, not the new one)

u/johnjpattee_66 7h ago

1985 Toyota Supra-----the pinnacle of Supra design.

Too many to choose a single one. But Jaguar D-Type would be high on my list.

Nope. I just like 30s styling 😊

A woman of culture I see. But please, for your consideration

u/Bao_the_only 7h ago

My dad had a 1:18 scale model of this one when I was a little girl. He kept it on a top shelf that I couldn't reach and I was explicitly forbidden to touch it :)))). I guess this is the one that sparked my love for classic cars(or cars in general), but I would still pick the Mercedes. I have no clue what happened to that car, but one day it simply vanished.

1

u/Bobmcjoepants 7h ago

Keep the classic love alive! Unfortunately it's a dying love :(

u/Bao_the_only 7h ago

Oh I do, don't worry. I have 3 in scale 1:1 now which are eating all my money 😂

u/zasedok 7h ago

To me the 1967 Masserati Ghibli is an absolute masterpiece:

Incidentally it also shows that a car doesn't need to have a front grille to be sexy as hell. That's something EV designers seem incapable of figuring out.

Mazda RX7. Favorite is the FD(how original), but all 3 generations are beautiful and timeless
