You have a point - the LS60 is a homage to the legendary sports-racing prototypes of the 60s and 70s, but built using some of the advanced technology available in the 90s. In fact, if the GMA T.33 (scheduled to enter production in 2024) existed in 1999, this is what it may have looked like.
Now for the LS60’s predecessor - the LS50, originally made for Cool Wall 5.
Its brutalist '80s wedge profile is a complete contrast to the later LS60’s more curvaceous shape, but it’s still a full-blooded supercar in the truest sense, as anything with a 430-bhp 5.0L naturally aspirated V12 should be.
It scored quite well across the board in most categories, except in service costs, in which it ranked dead last - but then again, I was expecting such an outcome.
It did, however, have best-in-class prestige, which partly explains its strong top-5 finish.
Ultimately, I am as proud of this one as I am of its successor.
