Which of these decades do you think had the best looking cars? Personaly, I say the 50's!

Crimson and Clover · 12-01-2002, 10:16 PM

the 60s but that only because i love the Volkswagon vans

fr00ti · 12-01-2002, 10:30 PM

80's!!!!!!!

DarleneIllyria · 12-01-2002, 10:57 PM

50s

Fleet · 12-01-2002, 11:02 PM

I would also pick '50s. I like those long, swooping fins, the huge grilles and front ends, and all that chrome. My favorites from that decade: '57 Chrysler 300C (375 and 390 horsepower), '59 Cadillac (any model), '57-'59 Imperial, '57-'58 Plymouth Fury and '57 DeSoto (345 hp). I also like the fact that '50s cars don't crumple up in a 10 mph. collision. The steel was about 4 times thicker than in today's cars.

The 90's. I just think they look classy. I had a 93 that still looked as if it could have been new in 2002.

50's cars actualy were made of steel, modern cars a fiberglass and plastic with metal chasis. It's sad, but true.

I voted for the 1960s. The 1950s had the best car (or, at least, the best car designs.)

Yeah, it is sad. I'm sure Fonzie is upset, too. He's still probably wondering what happened to cars.

Georgia's on my Mind · 12-01-2002, 11:32 PM

Kristina · 12-01-2002, 11:47 PM

50's cars, they looked nicer and they weren't as complicated as todays cars...

1950's are my fav. Of course the new ones too. I always though the 80s ones were ugly though LOl. Oh, but I LOVE those Volgswagon ShagVans!!!!!!

Cactus Jack · 12-01-2002, 11:55 PM
