The one from Mercedes looks like something out of The Thunderbirds.

like the saab turbo x and that laguna coupe looks nice.

 

I like this one best.

 

I very like the unpainted Veyron "pur sang". Always loved the idea of an unpainted car a la the old Merc racers, which apparently was to save weight. Also I generally hate the two colour Veyron paint jobs.

I quite like the Veyron but thought that it might pose a danger to other road users due to glare. I know I is sad.

I remember one or 2 motoring journalists saying something about Lamborghini Espada when it was first unveiled. I.e. it was so beautiful that is could distract people and cause an accident. HA!

 

Mmm, maybe almost as beautiful as this Lambo, the F-22 Raptor inspired Lamborghini Reventon:

Is this a candidate for THE most awesome road car?

 

I wouldn't say the Lambo is beautiful. It is a very striking and dramatic shape, but beautiful? I don't know. Here is the Espada:-

 

Muira is the perfect Lambo for me. Who cares if it broke down at the side of the road. Passers by would just stop and drool and you could then borrow their cars to go get spares.....
