What Makes A Car Beautiful?

Toyota concept car

I don't like that very much at all.

It looks like half of the concept cars from the late twentieth.

Rolls Royce Wraith (concept car I think):

I desperately need one of those!

Lamborghini Asterion

That's a gorgeous car. And it's a hybrid! 300 hp electric and 600 hp internal combustion.
Unfortunately, there may be no chance of it being built.

Its replacement, thw Lamborghini Urus, announced today, is pretty much butt-ugly. Even the name looks fecal.

OK, the Pininfarina-designed Ferrari Sergio is gorgeous. Looks totally impractical for any use, but gorgeous. And if you were one of the lucky invitees, it probably only cost 3 or 4 million. But we are not any of the (6) invitees.

Posh-posh. I already have one.

Sure you do. I have several.

You need to imagine the uses for which it is practical. Those are the only ones that count.

You would think - *I* would think - that for $4 million they could afford a windscreen.

What are you talking about? It has a perfectly adequate windscreen. It just doesn't require one of station wagon size.

There's no front windscreen on this.

I don't generally like Fords, but this one actually looks good, and I like the color.

The 2018 Ford Mustang Bullitt Is Real And It Looks Perfect

Speaking of car colors I saw something like this on the street recently, an iridescent wrap. Massively cool.

Saw one of these on the street today. Startlingly beautiful car.

Innovative car door designs

The disappearing doors and vertical sliders are really cool - I didn't think that sort of thing was possible. I wonder how good they are in crash situations, but in normal use they look very smooth.

The original "strange door" car is still the best.

What’s that, a 300SL? Them are classics fer sure.
