    Some great answers so far, but I’ll always have the hots for the Fairlady Z.

    Edit: better pics here.

      Someone in my neighborhood has one just like this picture. I always stop and stare when it drives by.

      Apparently my mother in law had one as well, but I haven’t a seen a picture of it or anything.

    Hard to link images for me on mobile, but for me it’s the classic Corvette Stingray. Late 60s early 70s were the pinnacle; they still supposedly make them but they don’t look like themselves anymore.

    1964 Pontiac Grand Prix.

    While the GTO is legendary for pretty much sparking the era of the muscle car, the Grand Prix’s looks are just so much more understated. To me, the GTO is like an Affliction t-shirt while the Grand Prix is more like a nice button down. The GTO goes out and gets life. The GP kicks back and lets life happen.

    I still love the classic GTO in much the same way that I love an Affliction shirt. But there’s one of them I’d rather my mother see me in.

      these rides were soooooo smooth, my greaser friend collects cars from this era and has one - although he makes his cars as loud as possible with crazy and huge exhausts

      Great choice. They’ve aged so gracefully relative to their peers.

        Right on. Sure the interiors might show their age. But for a car that’s pushing 30 years old, it is still incredibly sharp.

      The FD is honestly such a timeless design. Even my non-gearhead wife thinks they’re beautiful.

    Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale (not sure that one is totally original) is one of the most-beautiful, in my opinion. Dat ass.

      Goddamn that is gorgeous. It’s all the swoopy curves I love about the Stingray but, like, more so.

        Engine sound is what seals the deal. Just perfect. I discovered it via Assetto Corsa in VR. So nice to drive, listen to, and look at.
