Cars with class

[evil^milk]

What do you consider you favorite classy car?

First we must make the distinction between a sexy car, and a classy car.

Sexy cars are cars that purely have an aesthetic appeal, but not much more than that. Example:

Classy cars are more than just aesthetically appealing. They are both good-looking but also have a sort of personality. They're more than just the looks.

(yes it's clear I don't know much about classy cars)

So what's do you consider a classy car?

A lot of people seem to like old cars and trucks, before they started becoming clones of each other. I mean, you look at sedans these days... and the differences between them are about as varied as the differences between star trek races from humans.

My favorite car so far, at least since playing Forza Motorsport 2, is the Saleen S7. But I guess that would be classified under sexy car.

[Jimmeh]

The Aston Martin DB9 tbh. If only I was a millionaire...

Or - the not so classy race version, the DBR9:

Although I agree with the above post, I think the 2008 DBS is the ultimate aston martin to date.

late 1950s Cadillacs were trying so hard and so excessively to be sexy, that they became classy instead:

And since someone posted a Mercedes SLR, I might as well post its grandfather:

It's like a Delorean, minus the '80s blandness.

And on a more modern note:

You just linked a Sunfire or Cavalier (I don't remember which it is, they look too similar) in a thread for cars with class.

This fails so much it hurts :O

Does this forum have a "let's laugh at ricers" thread? Because I think you meant to post there...

 

[Anthraxxx]

The Amuse S2000 is an awesome machine...

The MCR R34 is also an awesome machine that will rip your face off...

[Dalamari]

STOP POSTING RICER MOBILES IN A "CARS WITH CLASS" THREAD, THERE'S NOTHING CLASSY ABOUT THEM

Also:

 

[Apocalypse89]

Anthraxxx's cars wouldn't be rice if it weren't for those stupid stickers. Never got why import tuners would turn perfectly good cars into rolling advertisements, unless they are actually getting paid for them.

On a more positive note, the new Mercedes S-class is like the ultimate bad guy car:
