  | Best current production car design is…  As part of our recent survey, we asked Car Design News readers to vote for their favourite current production car design. The response produced some fascinating results, with the Aston Martin V8 Vantage being voted the clear favourite from over a thousand responses. While other 'Best Design' contests are largely made up of votes from journalists, the voters for this survey were mostly automotive designers and students of car design. The top ten rankings are: 1st: Aston Martin V8 Vantage 2nd: Mercedes CLS 3rd: Aston Martin DB9 4th: Bugatti Veyron 5th: Lamborghini Gallardo 6th: BMW 5 Series 7th: Audi TT 8th: Alfa Romeo Brera 9th: BMW 6-Series 10th: Lotus Elise Source

| Re: Best current production car design is… I agree with everything with the exception of the DB9 and Veyron. IMO the A6 and 997 should take their places. Edit: and the TT...Z4 or SLK should take it's place.  |

| Re: Best current production car design is… I'm missing The A6 and the Z4. Other than that I agree with all.

| Re: Best current production car design is… I can't understand how CLS and Veyron made it to that list. Both cars are certainly not well designed IMO. Also TT looks dated to me. It's obvious that Mercedes fans voted for CLS, BMW fans for 5 and 6 series and Audi fans for TT.

| Re: Best current production car design is… My list would have been quite different, the CLS would have been the only one on that list to make it.
