I would love to have a 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner.

[visionist]

NSU RO80. Dainty and sophisticated. Massively ahead of its time.

Its light, modern chassis & innovative powertrain were a breath of fresh air in the 1960s




Facel Vega Excellence. The clue's in the name. Like a French Bentley.

Seamlessly joined coachwork, lightweight alloy dash hand painted to mimic walnut burl.




Mercedes Benz 600. The finest automobile ever made. Ever.

Hydraulic windows. Hydraulic doors. Hydraulic sunroof. Hydraulic decklid. Hydraulic seats.




Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale. I challenge anyone to find a better looking car.

That exposed diff is the automotive equivalent of a girl's thong peeking out her shorts.




Maserati Quattroporte II. Jesus, Mary & Joseph, I want one. The only one.

Citroen's oleopneumatic suspension, steering & brakes meets quintessential 70s styling.




Iso Grifo. Look at it. Just f*cking look at it.

Car design is a compromise between butch and slinky. Aggressive and demure. Not here.




Shelby Cobra Daytona. That is all I need to say.

My first words were "ass", "want" and "jizzed" in that order. I was 11 months old.


Can't wait for the Goodwood Revival! Time to order me a nice Purple Zoot Suit.

Lancia Fulvia:




Lancia Stratos:



With the Stratos, Lancia managed to win 3 world rally championships in a row from ’74 to ’76.

Lancia Delta:



The Delta Integrale dominated the WRC from 1987 to 1992, and this is the proof that Lancia was an excellent car manufacturer.



Sadly they merged Lancia into Fiat

[Togrul]

Mercedes-Benz 300SL


1967 Ford Mustang GT500 (Tuned ones)


1953 Cadillac Eldorado


1960 Cadillac Series 62


1962 Volkswagen Karmann-Ghia

[Mr.Funny12]

Datsun 240z and 510:

[visionist]

Toyota 2000GT. Spiritual forebear to the GT86, but with an interior that kicks arse rather than licking it.

Wonderful little touring car.

Challenge accepted. Whilst I absolutely adore the 33 Stradale, I always thought it's Ferrari brothers were better looking cars.

The Ferrari 330 P4, for instance

[Togrul]

Umm.

Front
1964 Ferrari 250 GTO

1968 Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale


Rear
1964 Ferrari 250 GTO

1968 Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale


Alfa Romeo stole the design

Reported!

[sivispacem]

They look absolutely nothing alike. For Christ's sake, the engine isn't even in the same portion of the damn car.

Just....no.

[Lurch]

I've always thought they looked somewhat similar. Or least a lot of similarly styled bits even if the basic shapes of the cars themselves differed. The wide haunches of the mid-engined alfa really do suite that shape quite nicely.

You can see quite a few similar styling cues in any number of Italian cars of that era. Bizzarinni 5300 GT Strada for example.

The 1936-Bugatti-Type-57SC-Atlantic painted in Black is possibly one of the best looking cars in the world.

Also, I see your Ferrari 330 P4 and raise you a:

Won the 1967 12 Hours of Sebring and the 1967 Le Mans 24 hours.
1967 Ford GT40 MKIV.
