Old vs New. Which looks better?

[Emsman]

Mainly as im bored, but which is the better looking to you?

In my eyes, the Ranger classic was superb, the new one looks bloated and ungainly.
The current 6 series looks awful, the original is one of my favourites.
Likewise the 3 series, an E36 with the sport options looks great, the new ones just dont have the visual clout that the old one does.

Also,

Escort cosworth vs focus rs
mondeo vs er, new mondeo- st vs current range topper
civic type r vs current type r
saab- any of them really.
Porsche 911 vs 997
Ferrari 355 vs 430
Impreza.
Monaro
Evo



I realise that legislation and fashions change, but to me its the old ones all the way.
Please dont think im knocking anyone that owns any of the above, im really not, I just seem to have got old early, and yearn for the older examples.

Anyone agree/disagree? Or just care to call me an old git (at 36)

Ferrari 355 > everything.

[paulmoonraker]

Old Impreza much better than the new one.

[Grey Ghost]

Having ascertained this is not a thread about a new BBQ you may have purchased I'll plump for a tastefully modified Cossie out of the list you provided

Ah but does it look better than an original Elan?

[El Capitano]

I literally can't think of a new model which i personally think looks better than the original.

Yank Muscle especially. Classic Mustang etc, heaps better than the new gens.
Beetle
Fiat 500
Mini
etc etc...

Mk1 Golf better than Mk6 imo

[Negative Creep]

Pretty much always the older models. I hate the bloated wheelarches and massive wrap around headlights in modern cars

Except the 308 and 328, which were far prettier cars...

It varies some but tend to like older motors more.

964/993 over 996/997 any day!

Nope, sorry, the 355 is beyond perfect, the 308 and 328 certainly aren't (though they're still exceedingly pretty).

(Also aware it's an opinion, so you can't technically be wrong, but still...)

Looks better than:




I may or may not be biased imo the same applies to mk1, and starts going down from the mk3.

I do think the new one is very photogenic, looks worse in flesh.
