Best looking sports car?
I've always thought the Austin-Healy 3000 to be the best looking sports car ever. You can see the bloodline in this new Z4.
Classy. Classic. |

There isn't much resemblance but there is a conceptual similarity beteween the big Healeys and the Z4s. Both cars began as more or less pure sports cars using four cylinder and then straight six powerplants and then morphed into slighly larger, more powerful GT/Sports cars.

There is the similarity in general roadster design, long hood and short rear with seats near rear axle. Always loved the AH 3000 appearance but the ride was brutal on rough roads.
