I saw every single new car on display at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed. The one that made me stop, turn and take in its lines was the new Mercedes S Coupe. It's absolutely fabulous.

So pretty is it I reckon the 2014 S Coupe will be considered in years to come as a highlight of Mercedes output in the 2000s.
Under the S Coupe photos are my other contenders for best looking new car or concept.
