BMW 8 series does look nice.
Holy cow, that thing is almost 20 years old now and it STILL looks as awe inspiring as it did when it was released.
Yeah I cannot think of another car that old that looks new. That doesn't look 80's or 90's at all.

I would have said Ferrari F40 myself but its over 20 years old.

The best car on earth though.

My picks.

Nissan Z32 (original design made over 20 years ago, but made until 1996)
E39 M5
5th generation Prelude
NSX
FD RX-7
original Viper GTS coupe
B7 Audi RS-4

I can probably think of more but these are a few that come to mind.

a lot of people are posting cars that have body kits and other cosmetic mods (wheels, etc) is that really fair game? You can make a lot of cars look modern by that approach

I'll rep the Japanese 90's glory years... all taste best when lowered on classy, expensive wheels.

-MKIV Supra
-Z32 300ZX
-FD3S RX-7

Others I would include would be the Porsches/BMWs/Audis everyone mentioned. Another timeless design, and I don't know the chassis code on this, but the Chevy 1500 truck designs from the early/mid 90's (actually from 88'-00' I'm reading), preferably single-cab. Used to know a guy with one of those - light blue metallic paint, smallish steel silver wheels, built motor, all the side moldings and bullshit removed... sick truck. The 80's generation before that were really good looking as well.

That is a great looking truck.
Another one I've always liked is the 80's Dodge Ramcharger.
