Elegant beautiful roof line

The problem for me about the original TT shape (pre-spoiler) is that I'm so used to seeing them with spoilers now that just the empty curve is like looking at a supermodel without a nose, or a Golden Retriever without a tail. Just seems off and empty now.
I understand that and have to careful not to agree. But I remember the spoiler appearing and thinking that it lived up to its name! I used to laugh at the Ford Scorpio, especially the saloon, and the first Ka, but now they seen almost attractive. Well maybe not the rear of the Scorpio, that was awful.
The old Renault Fuego was thought beautiful once, but now it looks quite conservative.

For a mainstream car, I seem to remember that the curved roofline of the c5 Audi A6 / b5 VW Passat saloons caused a bit of swooning back when they were launched.
I don't think there's a wrong line on the C5 Avant. The swollen arches on the pokey versions detract from the cleaness of lines in my opinion.ess said:
