Since !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! had us all drooling over red cars, I'm going to follow on with the most beautiful white cars.
When I was a little kid, I remember coming out of a restaurant that hasn't existed for about 30 years now and seeing a white MG TC in the parking lot. Already an aspiring Jalop, I knew what it was, and I knew the difference between it and the green TD next to it. Those oh-so-low doorsills, the fenders (wings, I suppose), the so-long hood and the so-teensy boot — ever since then, a white TC has been equal to a certain sort of elegant sporting attitude to me. What are your white favorites?

You need a Delahaye.

That does not look classy in the slightest. And certainly not fit for royalty.

I have an Aurelia model by Burrago in a beautiful blue, but that white's pretty sweet. As to the Jag?

That is lovely, but conflicts with my British Racing Green fantasy Sprite image. Such a happy little froggy:

Who said anything about classy? A coachbuilt Delahaye, or a Delage for that matter, is about ostentation and being noticed. It's got a long bonnet and relatively short boot so there's that.

I was being sarcastic — that thing looks stupendous.

I'd have to put yellow stripes on that green car :) The white one might could use some blue stripes too.

You and your stripes! WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM WITH UNINTERRUPTED EXPANSES OF BEAUTIFUL SHEET METAL?
