beautiful car design appreciation


PQRS7

Recommended Posts

Someone wanna explain how people find the Veyron aesthetically pleasing? It's performance capabilities deserve respect, yes, but the thing looks like a fat, soft, hyper-TT. None of the elegance I would expect from the brand, and definitely not even near the top of the looks department with this generation.

Looking in their history, tried to avoid the obvious Atlantic for something very similar. I dunno why I prefer the Atalante.

Would rather have this than an old Ferrari:

Something very different:

I like the Furai (and a lot of Mazda's recent concepts), just because the design language is so different from nearly everything else out there. It looks so much more organic than other cars these days, and the Furai in particular looks faster than almost any cars out there racing. The fact it's a runner is nice too.
