What is the most aesthetic classic engine?

It doesn't have to be American or a V8. Post your favorites.

DeSoto Firedome V8 is pretty handsome, desu

...how?

Show an average person that wagon, how many people do you think are going to call it a classic? I'm willing to bet the majority of them will be calling it an old car.

Show an average person a VTEC engine, they most likely won't think of it as an old engine. Now show an average person an old v8 with a chromed air cleaner, or a flathead i6, packard straight 8, essentially anything with a carb on it, they'll most likely be able to tell you that it's an old engine from the look of it alone.

and the definition of 'classic' doesn't mean anything 25 years or older.

I've always loved the Espace F1, obviously because of GT2 but also because it was driven by Jean Ragnotti and was an insane concept that was actually built and driven.
