The final run of W124 Mercedes in select countries got the "Masterpiece" edition. I happen to agree that the 124 chassis in it's lifespan was a masterpiece of longevity, reliability, quality, and engineering, and was the sunset moment for Mercedes quality before the W210 "nightmare edition" came out. What other cars are worthy of being called a Masterpiece for one reason or another?

The last of the Mustang platforms derived from the original - the Fatstang. Lardy and lumpy, but v-8-stanky and glorious. Benissimo.

I was looking at them on CL and eBay recently - surprisingly affordable. Baby got back, and isn't a pricey date either.

It was lost in a sandstorm, and emerged... changed. Hideous.

One of the winningest production car chassis in racing.
Or pretty much any S-class generation. They all are German engineering at its finest and have introduced many new innovations to the motoring world.
Or any other stunningly beautiful coach built masterpiece. I challenge you to find a single person who thinks that this is ugly.

Mostly because it looks cool *until* you look closer. Also, human misery - infliction thereof.
