Among current coupes, I gotta go with the Aston DBS as the best-looking, though, of course, it costs am arm and a leg. There have been several recent production coupes, though, that I though were almost as good-looking for far less money, starting with the 1994-1999 Toyota Celica (I myself had one), the last-generation Jaguar XK8, the first-generation Volvo C70, the first-generation Mercedes CLK, and the current Ford Mustang.

That's right Pacer it was! I'd kill to see a commercial with that. I'd love to see how they marketed that thing. That car is so medieval.

We must have similar tastes because I really liked the 4 eyed Celica, and the old Jag XK8 is one of the nicest looking cars I've laid eyes on. I was really close to buying one last summer in a beautiful blue color, but I decided on a GS400 instead because I wasn't looking forward to paying for the Jag's repairs when something inevitably went wrong. In hindsight I blew about $2000 on the GS in the 8 months I had it so I might as well have went with the Jaguar
