I think that the Murcielago is the best looking car!

Porsche 993 Turbo all the way.....

I just can't help thinking it's the perfect sports car....
I mean, just look at it...The whale tail fits in perfectly with the 993 Body...And a friend of mine has one in Bugatti Blue...which is downright stunning...

Sorry guys, it has to be the new Ferrari 430. Even tho i am yet to see it in the carbon and aluminum.... i dont think anything can beat it for new cars. yes the db9 is sexy as all hell, but it aint a ferrari, and its not the new F430. My vote goes to the king of cars, ferrari.

I'm all over the DB9 - I think that's the most georgous car that's come out in the past few years. Nearly flipped out when I saw one on the road a few days ago.

The Gallardo might be a close second - the straight lines and agressive corners blended into the comely, aerodynamic shape are a design-masterpiece. The Miura Corse body packages (aftermarket) add some nice styling to the Lambo line (esp. the Murcielago - it gives it "round" rear tail lights, for one).

The new AMV8 is something to look forward to as well.

You're kidding right??The Diablo just got replaced by the Murci and the GT40 just came out this year....F355 is still modern. The 90's arent that far past...Maybe the topic should have said current cars instead of modern
The GT40 was launched in the 60's. That's 40 years ago. I wouldn't call something which is 40 years old modern

The Diablio and F355 are already replaced by a newer one. That defines them a bit as not modern anymore.

I love it), Honda S2000, Audi TT, Merc SLK55, Ford GT, Mazda RX-8, Mazda 3, Mazda 6 speed, Pagani Zonda, 612 Scag, 575mm, Bentley Conti GT/ Arnage, Rolls Phantom, Merc E-Class, Land Rover Ranger Rover, Porsche 996/997, Maser GT coupe, Nissan 350Z, Mini Cooper. Chrysler 300c (but the interior sucks balls). And thats about all I can think of...

I'd pick any modern Aston Martin. A typical british coupe with classic lines.

Second place goes to the Alfa Romeo Brera.

There're a lot more Alfa fans than I would have thought - I'm not sure I see the appeal (mostly cuz I hardly see any of them on the street, and they don't get much magazine coverage). Is it something to do with that triangle on the nose...?

Everything after 1987 is a post-script to the final chapter in automotive history..

Ford GT, Aston Vanquish S, Pagani Zonda C12S, Maserati MC12, Ferrari 430....
and if the Alfa 8C Competizione was on the market, it would be up there too.


these are without a doubt the best looking vehicles on the market at the moment. The Phantom deserves some recognition for its stately appearance, but it's too Germanic in its design influences. The Bentley Arnage is a better-looking more British car, so I'd rather have one of those in my drive.
