1. 1950s - This is the Cadillac Cyclone. You can thank me for saying that later.

2. 1960s - Not as glamorous as the 50s, but they had cleaner, more restrained lines. Also muscle cars.

3. 1970s - yeah they got slower, but up until about 1977, the American luxobarges still had the panache of the 60s. I know there were other smaller cars, but I still think of something like this when someone says “’70s”

4. 2010s - I was born in ‘99, so these cars are part of my “heyday”

5. 1930s: Oh yes. oh yes indeed.

6. 1920s: When someone uses the term “bank vault” to describe a luxury car, I think this is what they really mean:

7. Pre-1920: It’s impossible to not at least have some interest in a car like this:

8. 1940s - Mostly due to lack of diversity in the second half of the decade, and WWII shutting down car production in the first, this is my least favorite vintage car era. Then this beast came along at the end of the decade:

9. 2000s: 8th, 9th, and 10th place all have few exceptions, cars that stood out to me in an era of general unappeal.

10. 1990s - would be at the bottom of the list if this magnificent beast didn’t exist at the time:

11. 1980s - What seems to be the favorite decade of many oppos is my least favorite. Sorry guys, nothing except the concept cars really did it for me:
