Maybe I should change my mind....my favorite view is my car BACK IN THE GARAGE! It's home today, hopefully fixed for good. I've been chasing electrical gremlins in the ignition and w/ the clutch for the AC compressor. I managed to sneak it to the shop and get it back while my wife was out of town. She'll never know. |

Peter...that has to be one of the cleanest 308GT4 engine bays that I've ever seen -- fabulous job! |

After I got my 328, I drove everywhere I could just enjoying the driver's view. Then, while at a stop light, I happened to look to my right and see my reflection in a store window. I just thought the car looked awesome. I've always loved the profile. I felt like that guy in the commercial who drives around the mirrored building, looking at himself. |

Although not my favorite, this view is one I'm most familiar with:

File must be too large... and shrinking it distorts the picture. Oh well, picture this.... it's a the side view similar to Ric's below. :-) |

Ric, agreed. I always liked this one of the 328.

Best is from behind the steering wheel looking out over the hood at 100+ mph. |

Kneeling on the hood; Bobbing up and down as was suggested on another thread.  |

I like Front 3/4 at ground level looking up. A professional photographer showed me this angle and I think it looks great for most cars. |

The only view that isn't great on my F355 is the view from the rear. The car looks a little frumpy. Every other angle is dreamworthy. |

i agree on the rear 3/4 for most fcars, and especially my 512. but another view i love in that car is out the drivers side mirror, over the rear 'haunches' - it looks very le mans like and powerful. |

I agree from the driver seat outside the window.

For me its generally the rear 3/4 on most cars I've owned or liked to own, one exception, the earlier 928 Porker (S or S2) is just fine from that fat rear (don't like the S4/GT/GTS I think the spoilers killed the pure lines of the original design)! |

I love the front and rear 3/4 angles on the TR specially when seen from a low angle. I guess those strakes really add to the agressive stance. A client once told me that the car look "Ominous" when seen from the back. Great word for a license plate. |

I love my 360 from the front. I enjoy those big, untraditional scoops in the front with no fake central grill... Ernesto |

Top view, you can see the width and length of car. But I also like all angles of most exotics. |

Today as I watched my car go down the street returning to the shop yet again, it dawned on me that my favorite view of the car is the rear 3/4. Not that I dislike the others, but I just think it looks very purposeful from that angle. So, other than the view from behind the wheel, whats your favorite viewing angle? Damn I miss my car. |
