That's great.

huh
volvo 240 is one my favorites
always has been

 

[Throckmorton]

I agree with the 300zx and the BMW, but the 240Z looks 70s.

 

[Throckmorton]

The Countach is the epitome of 70s-80s sci fi

 

[PricklyPete]

I would say:

Honda S2000
BMW E46 M3 :wub:
NB Miata
1st Gen Audi TT
Lamborghini Gallardo


I've been trying to figure out an American car that i think has lasting style...but off hand I can't think of one. I LOVE the CTS-V wagon...but I'm not sure the style wills till look good in 20 years.

 

[PricklyPete]

FD variants of the RX-7.

Forgot about those...I would agree.

 

[PricklyPete]

alfa 8c

For the love of god I forgot about that one...BEAUTIFUL. Looking forward to the 4C possibly showing up on our shores.

The NA Miata might have only been a good copy of the Elan, but I think the NB Miata was a step backwards in terms of styling. I never liked it. NC is another step forwards.

My top vote would be for the C5 Audi A6 was the first and perhaps best execution of the classic Audi shape from the 90's.

I think the previous generation 3 series and 5 series have ever lasting style also – but would vote against the Ms, which sometimes have too much body cladding for me.

Aston Martin is a no brainer choice.

To pick two “lesser” cars which haven’t been mentioned:
A MK4 VW Golf – I think that was the purest version of the classic hatchback shape.
And the 2nd generation Mazda MX6 – just really well executed coupe.

no way is the z32 timeless especially with tail lights like that... there are some decent styling ques, but not a timeless....

the FD rx7 to me is the ultimate timeless car built in the last 20 yrs

 

[dug777]

I am of course biased, but I think the 90/95 Series Prados have a chunky/rugged-but-without sharp edges look that will continue to stand the test of time

Then of course there's this:

[spaceman]

early to mid 90s f-series

 

[HAL9000]

1964 and 1970...

:hmm:

 

[IronWing]

 

[996GT2]

R32 GT-R

and

R34 GT-R. R33 was kind of the odd one out and looked kinda porky.

 

[Viper GTS]

I'm not sure any supercar can qualify for this. Of course a car that cost $200K is going to be treasured (Save the abandoned XJ220!). Some may age more gracefully than others but for the most part anything in that price range is going to be rare & desirable forever.

Viper GTS

[evident]

just because they've been making the same model for 10 years doesn't mean it's in style

i think OP's first two picks are pretty solid

[Throckmorton]

early to mid 90s f-series

Those were seriously out of style even while they were being built

I would say:

Honda S2000

NB Miata
1st Gen Audi TT
Lamborghini Gallardo

A good condition C5 Vette still looks stylish especially in black or maybe the Viper. The biggest thing that dates any car is the rims and door handles.
