And this one?
My humble daily driver...An Audi A5 3.0tdi, not exotic but the design is quite equilibrated IMHO.

That audi is very good looking, not on the same level as sports/exotic, but nice. Does it have the V6? If so how does it go?
Anyone on here ever drive an S6 or A8-W12?

Yes it has, 240 bhp and 500nm torque.(later on 300//625)
I have to say this is the first daily car that gives me a lot of fun to drive, it's not like the 997 ,but it's fun to play with the torque and the grip is fantastic too. You can step on it whenever you want...i adore it!

Well it looks 50% goes to Aston Martin.
Props to them!
If I had to chose beauty as a style thing my second choose would definitely be be Jaguar XKR. Similar in looks to AM.
But few had the guts to pick it in a pool with such hard competition.

For me, the best judge of beauty is time - accompanied by a truly individualistic and instantly recognisable form factor.
At the risk of pi55ing on some people's tyres here, I'd have to say that half the cars on this list would not look good 20yrs down the road (with the exception of a 911 which looks timeless on the virtue that Porsche has a moss-like pace in design evolution ). And a couple of names listed (not mentioning any in particular ), are a bit "gimmicky" in design and provides more shock value rather than true timeless beauty.
Hence, I'll put my money where my mouth is and vote for....(see most recent acquisiton below in auto-signature).....
And no....of course, I'm not being biased!! Hehehe.....

beltar, I would advise against chipping your TDI. I have already had the transmission replaced under warranty with stock power and there's no telling what 625 Nm will do to it.

Despite the DBS's top billing for beauty, I'm not sure what possessed AM's designers to substitute (in Mr Clarkson's own words) "a Power Ranger's leg" in lieu of a classier gear knob.
