What 'bits' of cars, the detail do you really like and admire?


I've always been impressed with the attention that was paid to the MK1 MX-5 door handles:


The subtle power bulge of a 2.8i Capri:


The sweep of the Cayman's rear wing:


The way a MK1 Tigra's rear light cluster is profiled to match the boot lid:

Love the door line of the Mazda RX-7 FD. One of the simplest, most elegant pieces of modern car design.

Never really noticed that before. But you are right!!! And yes, a damn fine looking car (when not wearing a hideous body kit). This one looks nice though, even with the splitter and wing. smile
