If you had the means, what car(s) would you buy on looks alone? i.e. no test drive necessary.

I would happily buy any of the following and not really care how they drive (although the driving experience is probably least important on the DB5, Karmann Ghia and Mustang), as I might be a little bit disappointed if my Italian exotic didn't drive as well as I expected it to!

All of the above, except the 4c, plus the F-type and McLaren 12c.

used to like the look of the Mitsubishi FTO V6, shame the performance didn't match the looks!

DeLorean all day long!

I know it would be a bitterly disappointing and frustrating experience owning one though. So I just stick to looking at them on the internet.

A bit like Russian mail order brides.

Soft spot for the Dino and Miura but of the cars they make today...



You'd never take an XK over one of these would you?

I love the squat, stout design of the current generation R1



But I also love the lithe 1198



I couldn't give a fk how either of them ride, I'd have them just to look at.

Plenty of cars that could make their way into my Euromillions-win garage on looks alone.

In no particular order:

Facel Vega HK500



And the interior is even better,



Fiat 130 Pininfarina Coupé




For kitsch appeal



There's something about the Mk1 Scirocco Storm




Frequently named as one of the most beautiful cars of all time, the Bugatti Type 35

Forgot the F-Type but it must be the coupe smile



Far from the most beautiful car ever but I'm also in love with the
LF-A, especially in blue!
