When it comes to what kind of car we like to see depicted in car art, every one of us has a different favorite. This differs based on a number of issues. Some of us want to see paintings of the cars we own, or would like to own. Likeability and quality of cars are both subjective issues. Yet there are certain areas of consensus. There are very few individuals who do not admire the Alfa Romeo marque and everything associated with it. Whether you are a sports car obsessive or a lover of fine construction, it is hard to beat an Alfa. But not everyone wants to drive one, due to their temperamental nature.

As far as possible, most people would prefer to drive a car that oozes class and looks good depicted in a photo or on canvas hung in a room somewhere you can guarantee people will see it and ask about it. Among the very best cars in this category would be the Jaguar E-Type, the car that is such a treat for the eyes that it has made it, as an exhibit, into the New York Museum of Modern Art. You see, a car does not need to be painted to be art!
