10 most beautiful cars of this decade
 
Mercedes-Benz CLS — Though it might not be the most outrageously beautiful car ever, the CLS paved the way for other four-door coupe-styled vehicles like the Volkswagen CC and even the 2011 Hyundai Sonata[/B].

Maserati GranTurismo — This long, lean, sassy two-plus-two is an Italian masterpiece. Great to look at, and even better to drive, it has breathed new life into the Maserati brand.

Aston Martin DB9 — Aston's signature styling language has never looked better on this stunning Grand Tourer. A stylish, elegant coupe that is sure to turn heads at every stoplight.

Alfa Romeo 8C Competizone — Art on wheels, pure and simple. Alfa's 8C could easily go down in history as one of the best-looking cars of all time.

Audi R8 — The R8 is a few years old now, but it's still one of the most striking vehicles on sale today. It doesn't look like anything else on the road and it was the first to wear Audi's now-signature LED daytime running lamps.

Nissan 350Z (2004-2008) — When Nissan re-launched the Z sports car in the early 2000s, its unique shape and cunning design helped set it apart from other two-seaters, and rekindled our fondness for one of Japan's best enthusiast machines.

Audi TT (2000-2006) — Audi's TT, in its current form, is a pretty little sports car, but it's the original TT's design that steals our hearts. As far as iconic designs of the twenty-first century go, this one will easily be remembered for decades to come.

Lamborghini Murciélago — At first glance, it is obvious that the Murciélago is nothing short of Italian supercar goodness. As good to drive as it is great to look at, the Murc created a whole new design language for Lamborghini, and its strong design is sure to age well in the coming decades.

Ferrari 599 — The 599 two-plus-two is elegant, sophisticated, and pure Ferrari, as is the sweet-sounding V-12 under the bonnet.

Porsche Cayman — Porsche's 911 may be one of the most recognizable designs of all time, but its gotten quite large over the years. The smaller, nimbler Cayman is an even better driver's car with classic Porsche style.

Damn good list... A couple others that deserved mention, but I don't disagree with any of those, esp the Benz and the Audis.

I wouldn't personally include the TT or the Gran Turismo. But generally a good list and to me the CLS and the Aston are just stunning

I agree about the TT and Gran Turismo not necessarily deserving to be on the list. I love the CLS, but I would take the Cigarette behind it every time (plus it is worth more than any car on this list).

Why doesn't the Gran Turismo belong? I think it looks great, as does the Aston.

Neither of the Audis belong, IMO........The TT looks like an upside down bathtub.. Its doors are too slab-sided, and the dash is too high (the disadvantages of being built off a Golf platform). And as for the R8, its front end belongs on a sedan, not a supercar.

As for the Ferrari 599, it has none of the classic Ferrari style. I'd rather have an old 328 or GTO, or a 360 Modena.

And the Murcielago? Too many sharp edges and slab-sided features. The Diablo was better looking.

None of 'em really appeal to me at all.
Guess it must be cause foreign super cars don't do anything for me.

Sweet I own one on the list. Too bad it doesn't appreciate in value because of it.

Why do all of those cars look like electric shavers? Is that what passes for beautiful now?
