F-Type wins it, IMHO.

Gotta say, for all its technology, the BMW I8 looks a lot like a 90's 300ZX with a funky body kit!

You nailed what my unconscious was trying to figure out. It wanted to be a Tron car, it felt like a Tron car, but it knew it was just dressed up for Halloween.

That VW is not ugly. A comment someone made... calling some of those cars "beautiful" is like saying the Terminator is pretty.

Since we are talking opinions...

The f type is a good choice for #1

The la Ferrari should be higher. That thing is absolutely magnificent in real life. I mean, just wow!!

What's a pagani? It's different, it's not beautiful.

The vanquish? Yeah, I see that. But that French thingy... come on... Just no!

Meaning although verts are nice, only hard top coupes could make that list IMO.

I'll agree the coupe is prettier.....but not prettier enough to make me want to loose the ability to drop the top. Nothing like that open air feeling IMO. ;-)

F-type coupe is nicer than the vert with the top up.
The vert with the top down is prettier than the coupe.

That may sound like an opinion, but it's not. It's a fact. Don't believe me? Google it.

Thought I've heard it all. It doesn't sound like an opinion...it is. Please tell me how someone's opinion can be called fact.

The kind of guy who's so concerned about others finding his car "beautiful" is probably better off with a vert.

That way everyone can get to see exactly which member of Village People he's decided to be that day.

Presumptuous, and a tad bit racist... Let's be friends!
