Two in the top 10 and Ian's brother gets a nod as well. Not to shabby for Clan Callum.

OK, not that Base Model though, but indeed the F-Type is Nr. 1 coupe for design! Great that many agree with US!

Nice! But, cannot believe they put that puny 4 banger with the single exhaust outlet for the rear view pic. Dissapointing.

Actually the pictures themselves arent really flattering of the f type, they make it look too stubby from that elevated angle.

The F-Type is as wide as my full-size pickup. It IS stubby.

Interesting list though for me its hard to take it too seriously with the Mercedes AMG GT being left off. IMHO.

The AMG GT is really an acquired taste.

funny you say that, there was one parked across from me today in our office garage. Nice and aggressive looking rather than a classic beauty.

That's uncanny. Still love the look though, but to each his own. One thing we can all agree in on the F-Type is a looker

No, it's the other way around. This is an archaic Mercedes racing design element





Hermann Lang 1938 @ Leghorn - 1st place (Manfred von Brauchitsch going into the hay bales)


Herman Lang 1939 @ Tripoli Grand Prix - 1st place


Hermann Lang, Karl Kling & Fritz Riess 1952 @ German Grand Prix for Sportscars - 1st, 2nd & 3rd places in 300SLs


Karl Kling 1952 @ Carrera Panamerica Mexico - 1st place

Yes, the new grille is a retro nod to the 1951-2 300SL.

Quite an interesting collection to include the F-Type in, and especially to have as #1.
