...Lamborghini?
The Gallardo was released in 2003, mid way through the F360's life cycle. Based on looks, I know I'd still have a Gallardo in a heart beat, but I'm not sure I'd as happy putting my money down on a 360 now as it looks rather dated.
The Murcielago was out in 2001, before even the 575M and 612, yet both these look mega dated in comparison.
In my eyes at least, the Aventador is the nicest looking car on sale today, which is lucky as knowing Lamborghini it will be around for a long time...
I'm not sure any other marque could get away with those sort of new model refresh rates...

Do you think the Gallardo doesn't look as dated, because it hasn't been replaced?
And do you think the 360 would look as dated as you think it is, had it not been replaced?
There's certainly the potential for that, however the G has had a facelift in it's time. And do you think the 360 would look as dated as you think it is, had it not been replaced?
I like to think the 360 would look dated now even if the 430 hadn't come out, it's just a bit difficultly proportioned in my eyes, but I couldn't say for certain.
New lambos do come about all too infrequently though!
Can't agree. Definitely not in comparing them with Ferrari. The Gallardo became a lot younger with it becoming the LP-560, but the original one does look dated and old-ish.
On the other hand, do you really think this is "rather dated" for an actual 2003 car?

I think you got a bit carried away with the idea that it is still being made, mate.
The (already from 1998) 206 is still a strong contender for this title I think. Although we got very used to it, it actually still looks fresh.
