Those things are just beautiful, despite the fact they want to take off at over 100mph and also spontaneously burst in to flames.

Sometimes you look back at car designs and it's surprising how dated they look. The Muira looks like it could have been designed last week.

Marcello Gandini is a living legend!
It's very difficult for me to name his best creation, but if we rule out anything with the raging bull on the bonnet, I would be tempted to say that the Montreal still looks stunning after almost 50 years!

Sorry if I gave the wrong impression guys, Maestro Gandini got that award a few years ago now, but I simply posted it as video reminder of the genius of the man who many may not have ever seen in the flesh. Interesting that Maser tie up with Citroen referred to in Jay Leno's piece.
Anyway the Montreal.
