The most beautiful car ever made.

I never owned a GTO but we do have a 1970 ETYPE coupe. Enzo Ferrari said the XKE was the "most beautiful car in the world".

Very sweet ride! The engineers have turned performance into pleasure as my C-7 gets 30 mpg on the open road. AFM works wonders in the economy area. My B-I-L has a turbo Porsche that doesn't come close to 30 mpg and we run dead-even in the Quarter Mile Grudge Match. Bring on the Italians!!!
When all things are considered, Gas is the LEAST Expensive thing about owning a car!
I agree, modern Corvettes are the best performance Dollar$ you can spend.
They deserve a HUGE,

1953 Jag XK 120 here. Beautiful flowing lines. My wife thinks she should own one. Not happening though.

There’s just something about a GTO. I was a Chevy Malibu SS fan in those days, but, again, there’s something about a GTO. 1967 was a terrific year for these GM models.

Beauty to me is different than performance. I find the handcrafted coachwork and styling of the automobiles of the art-deco age to be classic works of art as well as engineering masterpieces.

The 1963 Chevrolet Corvette split window coupe wasn't a bad looker either. One of my favorites.

Nice, can not imagine taking a car like that out in the winter. I prefer the Isetta!

So many muscle cars from that era.
I had a '68 Firebird 400 4sp so I am partial to Firebirds. All Corvettes, GTOs, Chevelles and some of the Mopar cars are all wonderful. I left out '66 and later Mustang Fastbacks. Add them to my desirable's list.

GTO is nice, but as far as looks go ... the Lanborghini Miura has always been my favorite.

Sure wish I had my bright red 67 GTO back. Thought I was doing good trading it in for a 1971 gold Chevy Monte Carlo. Hindsight is 20/20 isn't it ?

The Lambo is VERY nice (but I’d lose that antenna)
