If you look at cars from their inception until about the 80s, most cars, even lower end models were aesthetically very pleasing. That's not true of most cars today. The ones you've cited are all luxury sedans and are rare to see on the road (at least where I live). Also, the cheapest is $40k. That's not practical for most people, and that's not even including operating expenses.

I disagree, and most people living when those cars were new would, I suspect, disagree. I would guess this is either a nostalgia-driven (positive for older designs) or overexposure-driven (negative for newer common designs) aesthetic preference.


You have clearly forgotten about the Chrysler/Dodge K-Car series.
