| The Z3 was much better-looking than the Z4 has been. | |
somewhat, the Z3 was certainly better looking than the current Z4 but it doesn't compare to the new Z4 (E89) IMO.

Replying to: fintail (Apr 24, 2008 6:08 pm) Would agree. The 90-93 4-door Accord is probably the best ever designed Accord. We had 86, 95 and 98 4-door Accords. The 94-97 series was ungainly. The 98 was clean but too plain-Jane. |

There was a time when General Motors was producing styling that rivaled the world's best, the Bill Mitchell era during the 1960s was perhaps GM Design's finest era and this is my candidate for the best looking Buick ever-made> 1966 Buick Riviera Gran Sport >  Notice how restrained the use of chrome and other details is, this car is all about form and proportion. I think it's even better than the '63-'65 Rivs. Sadly it only took a couple of years to screw it up completely: link

That 66 looks a little bulbous in front. I'll take a Riv from the 63-65 vintage. I suggest that the 58 Buick Roadmaster is the worst Buick styling ever and probably in the top 10 all time ugliest American cars.

Replying to: fezo (Feb 21, 2009 12:35 pm) Think that the 57 Chev black hardtop has survived the test of time of good styling for that era.
