Styling and desirability are subjective measures.

It's probably blasphemous of me to say this, but if you gave me the choice of a GTHO III and an EB GT, I'd choose the EB every day of the week. I'm just not that into cars which are older than me. It's not from my era; I don't remember it tearing down the track growing up, so I don't feel the least bit nostalgic about it.

The EB, on the other hand ... I remember when it was brand spanking new. I remember reading about it in Wheels, hearing that it was only built in limited numbers and I barely see any genuine EB GTs around Perth.
