Poll: What car best describes your taste in how a car "should" look...

What car was it that you feel defines the ultimate "look" in a car...maybe not the car you want or the best car but the one that you STILL look at and say..."man...that's just BEAUTIFUL"?
Here's mine. Porsche 917K

it looks so retro :) I mean look at those fins
For me it's pure function, a car that's form is a by-product of maximum speed and performance. A car should look like it just came out of a wind tunnel, nothing should be for show, everything should be functional. Do that and the end result will ALWAYS be a beautiful car. That's why the ugliest vehicle on the road is the Asstek, it has no harmony between components everything is just slapped together.
That's just my humble opinion anyway.

there's a vague family resemblance...

Just wondering what other folks use as the basis for their ideas of beauty in a car. It seems to me that current automotive design is tending towards...
"The appearance of a bunch of angry appliances having a fight".
hehehehe.

993 Turbo, still my favorite.
Just look at it. Sexy. I need one. I think the E39 M5 and 360 are definitely hot looking cars too.
