The 10 most beautiful cars of all time

[A.Rafay]

In celebration of the classic and exotic car events Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance and the Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit, Total Car Score has weighed in on the car world’s all-time best looking rides.
Normally, Total Car Score creates its top 10 lists by crunching the numbers on specifications like horsepower, top speed, zero-to-60 acceleration, MSRP and fuel efficiency.
Beauty, of course, is ephemeral and subjective. However, while acknowledging individual tastes, certain model names tend to come up again and again in terms of their slick and iconic looks.

1. 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300SL
It was the fastest top-speed production car at the time. The 1954 edition was the first consumer-oriented (non-racing) car sold with fuel injection.

2. 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California
A red ’61 Ferrari 250 GT California was immortalized, sometimes in midair, as Cameron’s dad’s prized possession in the 1986 film “Ferris Bueller's Day Off.” Brauer says it’s not only considered by many the most beautiful car ever created, but it’s one of the most valuable collector cars today.

3. 1963 Chevrolet Corvette
The 1963 Chevrolet Corvette is distinguished as the first year of second-generation (or "mid-year") Corvette; only year with "split window" rear glass. It was also the first Corvette with hidden headlamps and independent rear suspension.

4. 1964 Aston Martin DB5
The car Brauer calls one of the most famous ever was a major presence in James Bond films, first appearing in “Goldfinger,” followed by appearances in “Thunderball,” “GoldenEye,” “Casino Royale” and “Tomorrow Never Dies”.

5. 1965 Jaguar E-Type
The 1965 Jaguar E-Type’s important advancement was its in-board rear disc brakes. At least one expert praised it as “the most beautiful car ever made”—it was Enzo Ferrari, who should know about such matters.

6. 1966 Ford GT40
The only car to win the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race in first, second and third place, Brauer notes it is also one of the lowest cars ever made, at 40 inches tall.

7. 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4
The 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 could go 165 mph and was the first Ferrari to use an integrated transmission and rear axle for improved balance.

8. 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T
A white 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T famously starred in the 1971 film “Vanishing Point” (and because of that, a plot device in Quentin Tarantino’s “Death Proof&#8221. Brauer points out other noteworthy aspects of this model: It was also the first for “E-Body,” it offered with 426 Hemi engine and it was available in "high-impact" colors like "Plum Crazy Purple."

9. 1971 Lamborghini Miura SV
The first exotic car—Brauer says this was due to the Lamborghini Miura SV’s mid-engine V12, making it one of the fastest production cars available in 1971.

10. 1973 Porsche Carrera RS
The 1973 Carrera RS has the large rear tires, wider rear fenders, a spoiler, as well as larger brakes and fuel injection, resulting in a lighter, more powerful Porsche.

If anyone say Lamborghini Gallardo, Murcielago, or Aventador is beautiful, i consider him drunk or not in right frame of mind.

How many of you love this beauty?

I admire the collection by the op, but as some1 here already said.... “beauty lies in the eye of the beholder” ... my choice might be a bit unpopular. The only reason of my selection of this beauty is because of some nostalgic childhood memories.

Bentley......

Bentley......

Yes, that's the pinnacle of British automobile engineering. The picture you posted is actually a R-type concept, which resembles 2012 Bentley Continental GT to some extent.

One of my favorite, Bentley Continental GT, 2007.

WTF? how can you find that beautiful? I am worried for you. I am worried that you might end up marrying a sheep cause you think it might be beautiful.

Oh come on, Duesenbergs used to make some of the most beautiful cars. Their cars sells for millions in auctions in recent times. Either the buyers are stupid to spend millions on fugly cars, or you don't have any sense of cars at all. I like Ferraris, Maseratis and Aston Martin.

How many of you guys think it is an ugly car?

If your car doesn't have a story to tell, that's not a car at all.

If I was rich enough -- uh, when I get rich enough -- I would commission a custom car with the above body and all the latest engine/suspension/safety technology under the hood.
