Yea what the hell is that? It doesn't look that beautiful to me. I personally like the way the E46 M3 looks.

Does anyone else wonder how in the hell the Bugatti Veyron made the list? Thats one ugly car, IMO.

I've heard alot of adjectives describing Veyron and "beautiful" was never one of them. I am also a little discontent with the lack of Japanese representation on that list. Toyota 2000GT, Hakosuka, and Ken-Mary anyone?

How can you like japaneese cars and tuners and such? Nothing beats good old american muscle cars and hotrods

Different strokes for different folks my friend. However, I don't fully agree with the American veiw on imports and tend to conform more to the Japanese (proper noun, capitalized) philosophy on tuning (function over style). I don't really have any interest in seeing how big of a sound system and how many video monitors I can stuff into an economy car. I'm also going to assume that you have no idea what a 2000GT, Hakosuka, or Ken-Mary is. I think if you did, you'd realize how closely akin they are to American-made made muscle cars (maybe not so much the 2000GT as it was made to compete with European sports cars). Thus, I think its time for a history lesson.
First, what is, hands-down, my favorite car of all time--The 1971 Skyline GT-R, the Hakosuka.
http://no28.cocolog-nifty.com/no281750gtv/images/HAKOSUKA.jpg
It's successor the C110 model. This example is a 1973 GTR. Less than 200 KPGC110 were produced between 1972 and 1973.
http://www.leblogauto.com/images/skyline_gtr_1973.jpg
Finally, the Toyota 2000GT.
http://perso.orange.fr/20100/imgautos/2000GT-3.jpg
Being that there are 8 Hakosukas in the US (and not too many more in Japan) and production numbers for both the Ken-mary and 2000GT were in the sub-500 range, I would hardly place any of the three in the same category with Civics and such.

Ya but I just am 100% against japanese cars even if I got a free one I would refuse to drive it.There just not nice cars.With those little 4 cylinder engines these hondas and such have where muscle cars come out of the factory with 420 big blocks and the shound of these tuners with those pipes that you can fir your head through is ridiculous they sound like my r/c nitro cars and muscle cars have nothing but a beautiful sound coming from those 3'' pipes and when they idle the sound is just to hard to resist but like you said different strokes for different folks

Well, I'm not exactly sure how they came up with that list, and I would definantly have to argue with a couple of them. Nevertheless, they are all excelent cars. I think it would be about impossible to pick the top 10 most beautiful cars, there are just to many sickly hot rides that I'll never own. Those old Astons and Jags, though I'm not a huge British car fan, are very sexy, I have to say.

nothing prettier than a completely restored 66 vw ghia...
but i really really like opel gt's, i think they look pretty sweet... maybe some of the 60's rolls royces too...

i can believe it. if my dad wants to fully restore his bug then he will have to spend at least $50 grand. he wants it stripped and everything re-done
the mustang is still the best.....

yeah... but you can also completely resto a bug for around $5 grand... all depends on the parts and whether they are oem or actual year-made parts... a stock 1952 1200cc engine in new condition will sell for $10 grand...

i know he wants a mix of parts. some new and others older. like the body on it.....
