It seems that most of the cars listed so far

are vintage supercars and exotics and part of what makes them beautiful at least in some cases is that they are so atypical to what you see on the street on a daily basis...it is the "exoticness" (just coined the word) that in part makes them attractive. I am going to break with tradition somewhat and go with a few that are a bit more pedestrian.

Datsun 240Z...lowered slightly with a pair of panasport mini lites, rocker decals, and with a 70's orange, yellow, or green paint color. The lines are vaguely similar to a ferrari 250 gto. No spoilers, no bodykits...just the way it left the factory.

2nd Generation 1990-1996 Nissan 300ZX...The 2 seat version...the 2+2 is a mistake IMO. I owned one for 6 years before the boxster and it was a great car. People were always asking me what it was and never could believe it was a 15+ year old design. The arch of the side/quarter window is unique and the car has a very muscular stance even though it is pretty much slab sided with no fender flares. Automobile I think voted it as one of the 25 most beautiful cars of all time. Regret selling it every day.

Karmann Ghia...hard to explain...it just looks like so much more than a VW.

Porsche 993 series...any of the series are awesome but like many the twin turbo reigns supreme in my heart.
