BTW - this century is only 8yrs old...........................

If you want to get anal retentive about it, its technically 7.75 years old.

My vote goes to the Lamborghini Reventon. Its the only car I can think of that wouldn't ever need a bodykit or wheels, and the overall shape as well as the small details are amazing.

If you want to get anal retentive about it, its technically 7.75 years old.

On that thought I agree with you.

And on that note of not having to put a body kit on a car would be the R35 GTR IMO.

To be fair, though, a Reventon is just a riced up Murcielago. I would agree with GTS-4 dreamer that a Gallardo is a better looking car than the regular Murcielago.

Since prototype designs are acceptable, I'd vote for the GT-R Proto over the production model. Holden's Efigy is also an amazing piece of work.

I reckon the Veyron looks horrible. It looks bloated, like its in a sumo suit. That Bugatti horseshoe front grille looks like it belongs on the front of an oldschool car that had long, narrow bodies with the wheels sticking out (like the ones Bugatti is famous for).

Veyron like a pirhana... effective, frightening... but UGLY!

I also like the FD RX7, but since we're talking THIS century I go budget conscious

(and prob very unpopular as it's not a sports car or rwd) and say

the new....... VW Scirocco.

Mmmm... exterior and interior... class! Just needs the RS4 V8!

Ferrari 458 Italia looking real sexy

Shit yeah. What a hottie.

As an aside I think the Ferrari California is leading my "worst car design this century" list though.

the new....... VW Scirocco

I didn't think much of these rebodied Golfs when I first saw them, but after seeing a few in the metal while I was in Europe I've changed my mind. They look great.

From a non-aesthetic perspective, I quite like the design of the Toyota iQ as well. It's cute, and it can carry 3 people in something with a tiny footprint. The perfect city car.

Edited by scathing

My vote would go towards the GT40. They have the history behind them, they have power, they look awesome and they are not like assholes where everyone has one. sure they arent the best car for handling etc, but there is no perfect car.

coming close second would be the Revention.

Ferraris. The F430 is gorgeous and the 360 was sweet too, plus the bonus of having the goods to back up the looks.

I loved Lambos when I was younger, was unimpressed when I actually rode in a Countach.

Oh and used to agree with Gallardos looking nicer than the Murcie, till I saw one in real life parked next to a Corolla. God damn they're small! Looked much better in photos!

And Astons are very sexy for a relatively simple design, so they'll age well.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
