Default Your top 10 most beautiful modern cars (1980-onwards)

In no particular order...
  • Ferrari 575M Maranello (and the roadster variation as well)
  • Maserati Quattroporte (V)
  • Wiesmann GT (I take back what I said about this car not being beautiful, especially after this photo<link>!)
  • Rolls-Royce Phantom
  • BMW Z8
  • Lamborghini Murcielago
  • Aston Martin DB9
  • Lancia Delta Integrale (pure form dictated solely by function)
  • McLaren F1 GTR (still looks good after all this time)
  • Audi TT (hairdresser's car or not, it has established it's own trademark look)
  • BMW Z4 Coupe (I'm going out on a limb on this one... but I suspect that it will become a modern classic... the only BMW to ever get the infamous "flame surfacing" style right)

Thoughts? Comments? Reactions?
