Silvia S13 high on my wish list too though,
The first time I encountered the Silvia I thought it was pretty ugly, like a malaise-era US car with its boxy lines. However, this was most likely because the original Playstation didn't allow enough polygons to represent its surfaces any better. On a second encounter in real life at a Japanese used car dealership, it made a much better impression, enough for me to buy it despite being on terrible bouncy coilovers. I loved this car, was a real regret to leave it behind when I left the country. I wouldn't say it's beautiful, but definitely good looking (as per thread title).

Not all of the new Lexus stylings have been sucessful, but I think the LC500 is an amazing looking thing, it could be powered by a neutron star!

Some great suggestions so far.

I'd add the Mazda Cosmo, for me the 90s one but the original is a looker too

Good shout, nice looking car in the metal. There's a particular colour combination that I saw one of these in that I thought was spectacular - silver and something else maybe (getting old, memory going) The white makes it look a bit fat-arsed and much as I like that red it doesn't really suit the car.

I agree, hope Lexus don't stray from this sort of styling when everything is EV as I don't think they need it.
