I agree, almost everycar beautiful car is the best looking out of the box, after that come all the add-ons to keep sales going, however may of the add-ons are performance and refinments, so fast forward 25 years, when we look back to buy the model, the latest is usually the most preferred because of all the refinement.

I would love a 74 Countach periscope with an 87 V-12 quattrovalvole motor,
a 76 Alffetta GT with a 3.0 in it. I do prefer the later 308's vs the early one, but more due to wheels and tires. I think the 8c will also be this kind of car.

My rambling thoughts!

Mark
