I heavily considered two cars that didn't make my honorable mentions list which I'm kinda feeling guilty for not mentioning: Jaguar XJR-15 and the Aston Martin DB5...
But, I guess, my list are my for-sures on any given day...not pending mood.

I usually pan Toyotas, but the JDM Toyota Chaser from the early/mid 1990s is pretty nice for a sedan. It looks like a 4-door Toyota Soarer [Lexus SC300].

And speaking of Studebaker, even though I don't think the Avanti was a beautiful car many of its styling elements inspired other luxury coupes.
^^The creased front fender and angular face vaguely remind me of the CL-S.

I am just to young..
unlike most youngsters i like to read up on the old school cars to see how far ahead their thinking was even though the technology might not have been there.

Yeah, the avanti was another car that while not widely known about (by the general public) was a little ahead of it's time...
Ghia designed many vehicles for other companies... (Karmann assembled alot of vehicles too)...
If you look at the wiki entries for Ghia and Karmann you'll see alot of references to other vehicles....
I might have even listed the De Tomaso Pantera, which also has links to Ghia...
