The Italians Cannot Be Topped...

I am watching EP4 of Top Gear...

Anyway, four reasons why the Italians build the most beautiful cars on earth:

01
02
03
04

I mean, even Audi comes in a longgg second to these!

 
There is nothing quite like the third line of the 15,000 mile maintenance reading "Remove engine mounting bolts and gently jack up engine"

😛
 
I agree with the second 2, but I cannot stand the front end on any Alfa. That shield shaped grill just looks terrible IMO.

To each his own.
 
You are right. Italian styling is definitely the sexiest. Of course it's so crappily put together it probably flies apart when you hit you first bump, lol.

So for the perfect car you'd need:

1. An Italian to style the body and interior
2. A German to design the motor and drive train
3. A Japanese to make the German engineered designs reliable
4. An American to build it inexpensively
5. Profit
 
audi is bland and boring compared to just about anyone. sure, they're exciting for the germans, but that's like saying one sloth is faster than the other sloths.

Personally, I'd take an American engine because the US automakers can make some cheap, reliable engines that put out a lot of HP.

Hence the success of foreign cars with US V8s 🙂

DeTomaso Pantera
Shelby Cobra
Holden Monero
Miatas with a 302
240Zs with Chevy smallblocks

So I'd say
Italian body and interior.
German suspension and frame.
American engine.
Japanese refinement.
Mexican build.

Did you not see the episode of top gear this season where all the cocks have moved out of M3's to RS4's? Thus making the M3 cool and Audi not cool.

No list of the world's most beautiful cars is complete without Aston Martin. The V8 Vantage and the DBS are both absolutely breathtaking.
