That looks like a picture of my old E-type, currently for sale via Eagle?
Sorry TT9, only just seen your reply.I think it popped up in a Google search as I wanted a specific angle. It's definitely an Eagle car, but I can't find any they currently have for sale with this image.
Is yours the one they currently have with the blue leather interior?

The DS is very nice, especially with the second front (not the faired-in lights, that was the third), but it isn't even the most beautiful Citroen ever made.

So which is the most beautiful Citroen ever made? Surely you aren't suggesting the one in the picture ![](http://www.larevueautomobile.com/images/Citroen/Ami-6/Exterieur/Citroen_Ami_6_003.jpg)

The Ami 6.
Styled by the same sculptor - Flaminio Bertoni (no typo, no relation) - as the DS, Traction, 2cv and H-van.

If we really must sink to the level of the Ferrari 250, then I can't believe nobody's mentioned the Lusso yet - nor any mention of the Lamborghini 350GT.

Well, as is said, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The Ami 6.

I'm still thinking about my top 5 but keep putting them into categories - difficult! I keep coming back to the word beautiful and what this means...

SS100. Maybe some bias as my father had one. ![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)

Hence the proliferation of beautiful cars as design studies that never make it to production.
If you're talking design studies, Koenigsegg engineer Mattias Vöcks' P1800 concept.![](http://cache.jalopnik.com/assets/images/gallery/12/2009/05/medium_3507689112_5b08417632_o.jpg)

I would say a good way to see if a car is beautiful is to put it next to a contender.I would probably say miura but a 308 gtb is more beautiful than a boxer and a 288 gto ,and a dino. ![](http://thumbsnap.com/sc/LZfYUv5e.jpg)
I'm not particularly into Ferraris so I don't know all the numbers but IMO the yellow one is better looking than the red one. ![](http://thumbsnap.com/sc/LZfYUv5e.jpg)
