I hate to say it, but I was thinking of the Deux Chaveaux Tiger Dan mentioned. It was so ugly, it was almost cute. That little 2-popper wouldn't make a bad commuter with todays fuel prices.

Completly rusted out shells of 300SL Benz's sell for over US$200k here.
I actually like 2CV's, they are great City cars, and they go forever too!!! Quite a feat for a French car! (504 and early diesel Peugoets excepted)

You are right, the old DS would be up there as one of the greatest cars ever.
Anyhow, here are 2 more:
Jaguar D-Type XK-SS (Steve McQueen had one, need I say more)

Something a little more modern, TVR Griffin 500:

Shoot, any TVR is gorgeous.

Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder and my sight is always changing, my pick also changes.
Too damn many.
Also, my choice is the car(s) that I rarely see and when I do, I appreciate them more. (that make any sense?)

Glad to see somebody mentioned the old Rivieras. The style right in around 65-66 is just awesome. The 71-73 boat-tails are some of my favorites of the 70s but I don't know if I consider them beautiful.
Most of my favorites have already been mentioned, so I won't repeat those, but I don't think I saw the 39 style Fords or the Lamborghini Miura mentioned.
