Yeah, but it looks like a cross between a Mustang and a Jag FFS, what's not to like?

Well........ you're right! When you think of haw many beautiful and really good cars the British Car industry has made over the years, and how it was sold down the river, it really makes you weep! Where did it all go wrong????

By the way, is it true Giovanni Michilotti ( Designer of the Triumph Stag, TR6 and others..) penned one of the original designs for the 300?

They advertised it with abilities to go on rough terrain

That playlist at right side is quite nice, time travel of some sort.

I thought that this was thread for best cars, not for ugliest cars that run over single track fastests, otherwise I would have been posting this British sports car, it is very very fast car and road legal, it was driven from UK to Germany for that record drive:

If you don't mind looks and other problems that car has, then it is the ultimate car to road, only it's low top speed is sometimes a issue, but it does slow down and accelerate really really fast.
