Older cars usually bring up a lot of good memories, while people who find ways to keep older cars on the road deserve nothing but respect. In today's video we are taking a look at some of the most exciting new cars that rock amazing vintage looks. Which of these is your top pick?
The Ares Modena and the Donkervoorst👍
Wow amazing cars!
Glad you like them! Which of these is your fave:?
I Love Morgan cars.
They are nice indeed
Nice design, Lalique
Is it your favorite of them all?
@@automotiveterritory one of my favs
More, simply more
Noted, thanks!
🔥🔥🔥
They were different and interesting!
Glad you liked them. Which of these is your top pick?
My top 2 were the vontervoort and the Weissman!!!
Sorry, the donkervoot and weismann
Hope the Healey got rack and pinion instead of that chest crushing spear that probably killed off the Healey 3000.
Car No 1, the return of the Frog Face.
Not a fan of the design?
The last thing you want to hear after spending this kind of money is "What is that?"...Pass on all of these vanity projects.
I think their is a market for these factory built restomods . I don't as a rule like EVs but that second car the roadster AWD with limited slip differential and 800 PLUS HP and a 1000 PLUS FT LBS TORQUE looks awesome.
Of course they are vanity projects nothing to wrong with that. The owners don't care if everyone knows what they are.
It's sometimes hard to understand the wealthy folk. But for some unique models may be more valuable than Lambos and Ferraris.
Caterham = k Ter Ram .
Alpha motors.... what are your thoughts? As they seem to generate CGI models but nothing more?
There were some media outlets asking the same question. But Alpha Motors have actually brought some prototypes to autoshows.
What happened to the jaguar sports coup?
What do you mean?
The A[tera is an affordable sports car
Weissmann please
Is it your favorite of them all?
@@automotiveterritory the Healy is nice as is the Ares (I particularly like that, it’s multimedia screen is retractable , something all car manufacturers should seriously, consider)… But there is something extra about the Weismann especially if it still has BMW underpinnings
I'm with you on this one. I find Weissmann especially appealing too.
The narrator sounds like he has no idea what he is reading...
did you say bargain? $571,000?
Compared to the original...
The AI voice is obnoxious and often wrong.
What device are you using that made you feel that it's an AI?
"English Oak dashboard" oh yeah? Funny, I can't see it.....czcams.com/video/9dufD3_mM54/video.html are you sure?
Can you please elaborat?
@@automotiveterritory The commentator says it's based on "the original AUSTNI HEALEY.....it's like a verbal typo....easy to do when typing, pretty weird if it's spoken.
the Ares concept of modernized retro vehicles of the past ain't working . . . the modified design of the original are too outrageous & EV credentials just don't blend with the customer . . . retro classics should never ever be EV . . . or else what's a classic . . . a retro classic means resurrecting one to it's original specifications . . . do you find any original here??? for e.g. the Hurtan Grand Albaycin . . . in all fairness what on earth is this thing??? even MAZDA probably thinkin . . . something on wheels, who built it??? if they knew it's based on a MAZDA MX-5 . . .
What if original motors are not available anymore? I think that EV powertrain is a better option than an LS swap.
Awful styling
Which of the models are you referring to?
The Kamm, Morgan and Caterham are the only ones not gaudy and full of psuedo-nostalgic kitsch. Wierd mix of vaporware and concepts.
Are there any models that you can suggest adding to this list?
Absolutely agree with you. There’s some truly awful cars here with the exception of the ones you mentioned. The Hurtan for example , they’ve managed to take a popular little Mazda sports car and ruin it.
No interest in electric cars
It's the future though
