I'm sorry but I think that most of the cars now look like hyundais and daewoos

.
(MOST but not all. Even Porsches aren't that beautiful anymore =[

I feel personally offended by such a statement.

Seriously though, the 911's evolution continues to impress in all of its subtlety, especially since last year when they (finally) ditched that awful 995/6 headlight design.

Behold, the 2007 (turbo):

I'll probably get killed for this, but the Toyota Yaris 3 door is as cute as a button and I would gladly own one on looks alone. The FJ Cruiser is a hot truck too, though the design is polarizing to say the least.

From Detroit, Ford has been a little lackluster but they have a solid truck in the F series, plus the Fusion, which is dead sexy (great little mod-car, too). Chrysler is queuing it's styling a little too heavily from their 80s lineage for my tastes, but the 300, Charger and even the new Avenger are very nice. Finally, GM... well, Saturn has a nice car in the Aura...

Honda looks like crap until you hit the Acura line (TSX and TL are simply amazing). Nissan has the new Altima and Altima coupe, plus the (Infinity) G35 series which FINALLY looks good in sedan form, not just the coupe. Lexus, well, I've never liked Lexus cars. Subaru has looked awful across the board since two years ago (they killed the beefy sex-appeal of their Impreza with the horrible grille/headlight designs).

I don't know man, there's a lot to love...

I dunno, there are a few really nice looking cars out recently. The Maserati GranTurismo is one, Audi is the other.

1985 Ferrari

2007 Ferrari

1990 Mercedes-Benz

2007 Mercedes-Benz

1987 Dodge Charger

2007 Dodge Charger

I'm gonna say cars look MUCH better today

Some do, some don't

I like the current honda/toyotas/acuras.

 

[Quaddy]

they are slowly coming out of that trend now, was a stage where they were all boxy clones!

have you sat in one though? Interior is so shoddy locking. I'm not a big guy at 150lb and 5'9" but leg room was terrible. My left foot was hitting the bulge from the wheel well! At least its nice and light and geared so it has a little pep around the city.


The FJ is a nice truck I agree. I wish it had a little more power to go with its weight though. For a truck that heavy it would be nice to have around 350lb of torque vs its stock 280.

Aston Martins look good, but that is IMHO. And no, I don't have one.

 

[saboteur1]

I am practically drooling at that 911 picture... Mmm...

I've always liked the Porsche look, past and present, though, so I may be just a tad biased.

 

[darkninja67]

Acura TL Type S and the new Accord Coupe are some of my favorites without going into exotics.

 

[mb3k]

The Lexus IS-350 looks stunning!

GM is taking a lot of the european platforms like the Skye from the Opel GT.. IMO it degrades the Opel name. Maybe it's b/c I not too fond of North Am cars.

BMW has some amazing design talent at their disposal also!!!

 

[Superpredator]

I'm going to disagree.

 

[JSTpt1022]

In my opinion there are a ton of drop dead gorgeous cars on the road right now. Some have already been posted here.

Yup, it's wonderful, no more than 95% the same as what I remember from the seventies except those parts which have gotten uglier...

I know, beauty is in the eye of the beholder but man, we have some seriously different tastes in cars...
