World's Most Beautiful Car - 4th ROUND CLOSED!!

Okay, so voting for the final elimination round is over, and this one was, well, just "a bit" of a blowout, with thewinner amassing nearly half again the point total of the next highest contender... So from Round 4 to the final go..... 1970 Plymouth Barracuda AAR Coupe 1961 Ferrari 250GT SWB Berlinetta 1967 Chevrolet Corvette I knew the 'Cuda was gonna' be a strong finisher, but I'm really blown away that it's THAT popular!! We mightas well just crown it the winner right now! And only one wildcard from this round: 1968 Shelby (Ford) GT Fastback So now it's time for THE FINALS!! Since I have more than 20 cars, I'm going to hold a wildcard "playoff"first, take the three top vote-getters from that, which will give us 12 cars for the final. I am, again in my scientific way, taking the other 'Cuda outof the running as the body style is represented by the AAR. And by the way, if my reasoning in any of this doesn't make sense, someone please tell me, okay? ___________________________________ And So on to Round 4 and the FINAL ELIMINATION - WHOOO HOOOOOO!!So here it is... the fourth, and FINALELIMINATION ROUND - WHOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!!! This round includes the car that started this whole mess - the Citroën DS, which was named by "Classic & Sports Car" magazine, in an articlepolling journalists and designers, to be the world's most beautiful car, ever!! Also, for those of you who were disappointed by the Barracuda and Challenger twins showing up in the same poll and having their votes cancel each other out,the body style is represented again in this round in the form of the 'Cuda AAR coupe. So if it doesn't make the top three, I'll take the highestvote-getter of the three and it'll be included in the final. Make sense? So without further ado, the last group of niceys to choose from....

Ah, good eye, Matt! But the 'Vette in Round 1 was the '63 split-window variety.

All the same to me lol j/k I couldn't quite remember what it was. I hope it loses one corvette with the same type of stingray styling in the final isenough.
