afx Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 What is your favorite F1 car of all time. Mine is the Tyrrell P34. Not necessarily the most beautiful but I think it was very innovative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace-Garageguy Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Ferrari 312. Not very successful, but sure was pretty. And the sound...mamma mia!! Edited February 24, 2014 by Ace-Garageguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett Barrow Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Based on looks?: Ferrari Sharknose - Honorable mention goes to Jordan F191 which I think is the best looking car of the modern "covered in sponsor decals" era: My favorite based on performance and my level of fandom at the time - Williams FW14B, but i never though it was that good looking.

RancheroSteve Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 All good choices! I've built the Jordan and the Williams, and have the Lotus lined up on the bench for "soon". And I like this one, too: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
om617 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Matra MS11 because of the glorious sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Gordon Murray's masterpiece (for the time) the BT-44; http:// And the previously mentioned Matra: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigphoto Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) For beauty my faves were the JPS Lotus cars and the Benetton Ford 87-91 Also I respect the DF series Cosworth/Fords as they ran the same basic configuration from 1967 to 1991 I believe. Though outclassed by the V-10s they were still competitive in the right hands. Edited February 24, 2014 by bigphoto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunajammer Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Sentimental favorite. F1 in my mind is always this car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZTony8 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'll go for the Brabham BT52.Clean,simple,effective shape.It was that way because of a late rules package change that left little time for creativity.The rear wing wasn't even adjustable!

Scuderia Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'm not that old in the relative scheme of things, but I was always partial to the Benetton B195. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM485 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 What is your favorite F1 car of all time. Mine is the Tyrrell P34. Not necessarily the most beautiful but I think it was very innovative. I would have to say the Tyrrell as well (that sounds pretty funny ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modelmartin Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I would add myself to the list of Ferrari 156 Shark Nose aficianados. I love the Tyrell six wheelers too. If you had asked for favorite GP cars I would, of course had to go with my Bugattis: Brescia, T35, T59. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afx Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) I also liked the Benneton B188 mainly for the color scheme/graphics. Thierry Boutsen in Detroit(!) 1988 Edited February 25, 2014 by afx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58 Impala Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) The F2003ga.Beautiful car, one of my all time favorites and there's nothing like the sound of a V10 screaming at 22,000 rpm.
