The Lamborghini Miura was a beautifull car when it was released pre 1970, and still today, not many cars could match her beauty

Besides the obvious XA/XB/XC/Landau Coupes I'd have to say the 1970 Ford Torino.
I just love the old school muscle cars of the 70's. I think that there is more of a personal touch from the designers in these cars than the super cars of today. Pure art. Just my 2c worth. Wayne ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Any Australian muscle car (with the exception of the Torana) gets my vote over anything else, especially Eurojap stuff.
