Inspired by the CF Enzo
 

I know the enzo hasn't been that outdated from when it has come out in 2002.

But what cars do you think that styling is still relevant for supercars? I find that those styles ever 4-5 years are completely different and re-worked due to aerodynamics.


Mclaren F1 comes to my mind, but the older ferrari's say even the 399 while still looks great, they don't seem very relevant now a days.

Ferrari F50 looks still very supercar'ish
They are from 1995-97, so over 10 years old and look still sick as hell.

I think zonda's started being produced in like 2000 or 99? not sure but that's a 10 year old style that they still look quite simular today.

how about the Ferarri F40?

That was more hard to understand than a russian teaching math.

Anyways, I agree with the above posts, Zonda will always remain a supercar icon. I think its the recipe on how to build a supercar. You need a low roof, low belly, wide stance and long wheel base.

F40 FTW.

^ hahahaha wtf.. is that real? LOl made me laugh

512tr, 348, 355, still look sick as hell even though those designs were created during the 90's

Not the most exotic car out there but its still pretty nice for a car from the mid 90s

NSX. Supra, and FD are truly timeless design in the land of the rising sun



anyone wonna explain why 300zx fairlady was not mentioned often?


isnt fairlady in the same league as the above, yet nissan decided to go out and produce a sinmilar car inline 6 with twin turbo but in AWD plateform? hence why skyline??


it seems ppl focus and concentrate in skyline more vs 300zx

why is that?
:confused:

because in vancouver the 300zx was fairly common, and up until recently the skylines were non-existant.

not sure how either of those two are relevant to the topic of 'supercar' styling...

at the end of the day, there is a certain shape that all super fast super cars must have, and if you look at any of the ridiculously fast cars like; McLaren F1, Dauer 962, Lambo Diablo, Murceilago, Veyron, Zonda, Konigsegg... they all have a very similar side profile - low, long, and a forward cockpit.

I google "the first supercar" just out of curiosity ..
it is in the 1950 - 1960 Mercedes 300SL Gullwing

not sure what is the OP questions is.. I thought I just throw it out there

and many believe that it is Ford that created the first True supercar in 1966 - 1969
