100 FAVOURITE CARS - PART III

Over the course of releasing pictures and explanations of the first twenty of The Good Car Guy's 100 Favourite Cars, only nine brands have been represented. In other words, based on the alphabetical order in which these cars have been disclosed, you already know that there'll be no Acura NSX in TGCG's 100 Favourite Cars; no Audi R8; no Bentley Continental GT Speed; no Aston Martin V8 Vantage. Four cars dearly loved by The Good Car Guy, they may be, but not to the degree that cars in this 100 Favourite Cars list are.

Ten more cars can be seen in the slideshow, with explanations of why TGCG named those vehicles to GoodCarBadCar.net's 100 Favourite Cars group.

BMW M3 (E46): Good looks help make the E46's case; six cylinders strengthen it; and sublime 50/50 balance seals the deal.
BMW M5 (E39): The E39's successor, though incredible, is a brute. Pretenders to the E39's throne, though frequently impressive, are not the all-around devices the M5 proves to be on each and every drive.
BMW 7-Series (E38): Before BMW turned the 7-Series into a recipe for disaster, the E38 was a clean, classy, very prototypical BMW package: a sport sedan in limo clothes.
BMW Z8: Just prior to the height of the automotive retro craze, BMW's Z8 was the preeminent retro-modern automobile which happened to be.... a junior supercar.
Bugatti Atlantic: Imagine if the Bugatti Veyron in all its W16-quad turbo glory looked good. Ah, that'd require inspiration from the Atlantic, but Bugatti was unfortunately inspired by dual-colour boats.
Bugatti T35: Something like the Caparo T1 of its day, the T35 of the '20s was thoroughly simplistic in its design and thoroughly extreme in its capability.
Cadillac CTS-V (Gen2): Dreadfully ugly in its first version, the CTS-v is now handsome and even more powerful. What more want ye?
Cadillac Eldorado ('59): Generally speaking, when automakers go out of their way to design obnoxiously American cars, they get it wrong. The '59 Eldorado is crazily American yet perfectly formed.
Caparo T1: Something like the Bugatti T35 of its day, the T1 of today is incredibly simplistic in its design and thoroughly extreme in its capability.
Chevrolet Camaro SS ('02): Camaros weren't cool in the early part of this decade. Fast but not sophisticated; sporty but not sporting. On the other hand, it was really fast in SS form and supplied country roads everywhere with awesome burnouts.
