What car is more beautiful than an Emira?

Wish the F355 wasn't a maintenance hog, or I'd be driving one right now.

Don’t believe everything you read online.

I had mine for 12 years and apart from one significant issue (which had more to do with an inability to properly diagnose the problem than anything else) it was very reliable.

Like any old Italian supercar, if you buy a poorly maintained shit-box you can expect a nightmare.
Buy a good one and look after it properly and it’ll be fine.

I miss it, but the Emira is a worthy replacement.

Maserati MC20 Cielo is a worthy rival. Mixed reviews on the transmission and sound but the doors go up, lol.

F40 not mine but cared for by the same restoration shop, Classic Jaguar in Austin, TX. My car is Opalescent Silver Blue which is the original color of the car.

Same original color as well!

Perhaps not the most beautiful, but "wow" what a car!

In terms of modern cars I agree (coupe or cielo, they’re both stunning). The styling isn’t overly aggressive and has a slightly feminine look which makes it genuinely beautiful to me.

Perhaps we should consider the age of the car when comparing against the Emira. Going against old established classics like the Miura, Dino, E-type, etc. is a tall order for a modern car. So what "modern" car is more beautiful? And what constitutes "modern"? My personal cutoff for modern would probably be around 1990 or so, but I have younger car friends who weren't even born then. Now if I consider only contemporaries of the Emira, I personally can't think of a more beautiful yet attainable car right now, and it was one of the main reasons I put down my money for one.

Beauty is ageless.

Beauty is ageless.

And also in the eye of the beholder!

Beauty is ageless.

Paradoxically, that would mean to check whether a car's beauty does not age - you would have to wait several years to know...
