Ardent

Very few cars let you look impeccably composed, effortlessly sophisticated and alarmingly violent at the same time. The Ardent somehow makes it look easy. Lose the tail, unleash the twin machine guns, finish whoever’s left, deliver the perfect one-liner, pop the champagne, squeeze in a quickie, drive straight into the sea, immediately regret everything and drown with remarkable efficiency. Elegance really is about timing.
