It never ceases to amaze me, how a thread to find what people's #1 is, that they post 4 or 5 cars?

Choose one!

It is like asking "who is the most beautiful woman in the world"?

Doubt any of us could chose just one (except our wife of course!)

It goes w/o saying, doesn't it.

Reminds me of an interview w/John Fogarty on KSAN radio years ago.
When asked who he thought were the supreme groups of the day, he began to list several.
Ben Fong Torres asked, "What about the Beatles?"
Fogarty said that no other group could be mentioned with the Beatles.

Good choices here, but I like mine better (can't decide between 'em).

These still stop me in my tracks. Regardless of how many I've seen. Timeless in it's truest form.

The Miura is a really pretty car, and is definitely up at the top of the list, but I don't think it's possible to pick a single car that is the most beautiful. That's like going to a rose garden and picking the prettiest flower.

RUF, on our way to a car show. I took that pic in my CaymanS.

There are so many beautifully designed cars out. We need to limited to a certain era. I like the Jags from the late 60s. Not that I would ever buy one but in terms of style, I think they are beautiful.
