The way I typed it out made it seem contradicting. I was meaning I don't see any beauty at all in those cars except for a little and only reason SOME people would think they're beautiful is because they are antiques and classics. I just worded my sentence wrong.

i see nothing wrong with the wheel relationship on the XKE. I like it in fact. It's a gorgeous car in every proportion. Even better is the fact it performs like few cars of its generation.

I don't find it gorgeous from every angle, and it's more exotic than sexy. But then, this is about personal preference.

About the funky wheel relationship, I too think it can be cool, but not on a sportscar so much.

it's a difference of opinion then. But here is one thing i'll say, it is the most feminine car i can think of. Its soft curves make it feel alive. To me, the XKE is a beautiful woman in a black chanel dress. It's the charlize theron of cars, whereas the 507, with harder lines is more an uma thurman. It's all taste. Aesthetics in cars are like aesthetics in women. To me, the charlize theron like lines of an XKE cannot be topped.

See it?
