Cars you will never get tired of looking at...

Besides the Focus of course, there is a whole gallery in Rigz for that.

I was just reading the "cars that should never have been made" thread and got to thinking about some of my favorite cars over the years. Not just supercars and exotics, but cars that everytime I see them I seem to like them more.

Volkwagen Corrado - I still consider this car the pinnacle of VW design and I still want one.

Subaru SVX - This is still one of my favorite cars, though most people I know hate the side windows I thought they looked very different, which I can't say about alot of cars from the era.

SVT Contour - One of the best cars ford ever made, then swiftly kicked it to the curb after decontenting it to death

This list could be massive, but here is a quick run down.

Ford GT40
Daytona Coupe
Ferrari 250 GTO, or GTB
1969 Boss 302 in Trans Am race trim
Ferrari 430GT
Astin Martin DB9
1996-1998 JDM Integra Type R in Championship White
Lotus Exige
BMW M3 (1995-1998 vintage coupe)

Those cars are probably the cleanest and most purposeful cars I have ever seen. I think a lot of the cars on my list were never intended to be great looking cars, but they all seem to have a special look of purpose to them that is lost in just about everything made today. The current M3 is a mechanically superior car to the 95-98 car, but it just looks overstyled and overdone.

The same could be said of the e36 M3 vs the e30 M3

I'm not going to give a list, since most of my list has already been posted, but one omission is a mid-late 60's 'Vette Grand Sport.
I'm thinking '67 or so?
I'm bad with the details, but I can see it in my head.
:eek:
:cool:
