It was only a few years ago that I started really started appreciating that some cars have very pleasing curves from a driver's perspective. The first car that I really noticed this was on an Alfa Romeo Spider I had about 10 years ago. I was driving along and leaned forward for some reason and looked out across the hood. Wow! It really struck me how beautiful the lines were and how mesmerizing the reflections were as they moved along and over the curved fenders and cowl.
Now I look at the hood (or bonnet for my English cars) almost every time I drive on a back road. The older cars have beautiful lines and curves....
1976 911: I love the way the fenders are so pronounced . The dropping hood really accentuates the curves of the fender.
1957 MGA: What can I say? Cars from the '50's were some of the most beautiful cars ever designed. Look at the detail...
1969 MGCGT: This is the rare 6 cylinder version of the MGB. Notice the extra bump on the bonnet required to clear the carbs. I love the multiple curves...
1986 Ferrari Mondial: The car makes beautiful sounds; however, the curve action is MIA
