the 2005 Marcos TSO is probably one of my favorite looking cars

i've always thought of the enzo ferrari as one of the coolest looking supercars ever

You can't talk about Ferrari's without mentioning the most iconic one of them all.
[IMG]http://pictures.topspeed.com/IMG/crop/201308/1987-ferrari-f40-37_800x0w.jpg[/IMG]
The F40.
No unnecessary gubbins. Even the radio has been spared away in order to make it as light as possible.
Besides, why would you want a radio to disrupt the sound of one of the most iconic cars from the 80's?

This is terrible
As someone who used to drive a jeep about, I can say that I don't like how "bloated" the new jeeps are compared to the older ones, the jeep is a great design, don't weigh it down with a bunch of pointless gubbins, leave it as a rugged little utility runabout, please. :surrender:

Here's another wedge. The Vector W-8. Can't believe I forgot this one.

It's impossible to get more 80's than the Vector W8
And that amber display has got to be the most radical UI ever
Here have a pretty truck:

Heck, modern cars would look a lot better if they were more boxy, and had monochrome amber LCD screens
I actually really like a lot of supercar designs, BUT, and this may be a very unpopular opinion and/or make me a heathen, there is one that always makes me produce a strange involuntary sound of disgust upon seeing:
The Pagani Zonda.

Who remembers the Ford Credit AU Falcon from Gran Turismo 3 and 4?

The AU Falcon V8 Supercar had some amazing liveries. The Green-Eyed Monster is always worth sharing:

Marcus Ambrose also had a pretty cool Pirtek AU Falcon:

In it, he created one of the greatest moments in V8 Supercars history:

But to give Holden some attention, here's the Garry Rogers Motorsport Holden Monaro race car; the formula was simple: Grab a coupe version of the Holden Commodore (the 00's Holden Monaro), drop a 7.0L race-tuned Corvette engine under the bonnet, fit it with a V8 Supercars-derived bodykit, and watch it devour Ferrari 360s, Porsche 911s, Lamborghini Diablos and BMW M3 GTRs (it won outright at the Bathurst 24 hour - twice):

The car actually looks really good in person, trust me. Usually when they're not sitting in a shed, they're at a car show, but I was lucky enough to have one at my work for a week getting repaired (cos it had been sitting in a shed for so long)
Also how good is that logo

2nd Generation Toyota Prius
[IMG]http://toyotanews.pressroom.toyota.com/images/toyota/photo//06_2004_Prius-prv.jpg[/IMG]
Not an exciting car by any means but still a handsome well designed car. The design is simple, efficient, and proportioned good.
Then skipping the third generation we get to the current fourth generation.
And what the fuck is this
[IMG]http://media.treehugger.com/assets/images/2015/10/2016-toyota-prius-hybrid-4th-gen-01.jpg.662x0_q70_crop-scale.jpg[/IMG]
It looks like a bug that get stepped on.
Look at the nose that juts out.
The almost 3 headlamps.
The A Pillar that looks like it's glued to the side.
The windows that were replaced with plastic panels.
The rear end that curves in and out 3 times.
The taillights mounted at the driver's eye level.
The ungodly amount of lines.
And those lines starting, stopping, and turning for unknown reasons.
Looking at these two is like comparing modernism and post-modernism.
remember the cool prius

This is my first choice should I ever have to resort to driving an electric car. It's like the perfect Prius before designers went and fucked it so badly they didn't leave cab fare.
