Surprises me that the rookies didn't reply to this topic. It's a Talbot-Lago T26 GS Cabriolet by Stabilamente Farina, 1951. This is really a gorgeous car, I put it on my wish list  ;D

In black it's even more beautiful, regrettably they don't make such cars anymore nowadays

Yes, I believe black is its current colour.
It does seem that the art of making such classically elegant beautiful cars has been lost, even if some of today's cars are very attractive (e.g. Ferrari 458 Italia).  They're just very different..
