    Whats the oldest car design (exterior) that you think wouldnt look out of place in a car showroom today? Whats the most enduring car design in recent history?

    I think the celica looks well considering it was launched in 1999. It still looks like it would sell new today :D.

    Ah come on drunk monkey, I know its subjective and all. But if this:

    peugeot_205_ozd293.jpg

    was sold on the Peugeot model line up now today it would look out of place.

    the E36 bmw surely is a top design of em all

    meh, if you saw a nice example.

    so credit to the designers.
