I would have to say B&M comes first. Sheikra, apollos chariot, and the hulk all come to mind.
Intamin deserves an honorable mention with skyrush and MF to name a couple.
Premier makes very cool looking rides though with their bowl and mr freeze style coasters.
I have always loved the look of arrow mega loopers, and the fluid structure of a gci aswell.

So what do you think?

B%M just have that clean well structured feel. I may be biased because BGW is my home park and 3/5 coasters are B&M.
Intamin is close in my opinion though. A tighter, leaner, feel than B&M.
You expecting something not being here?

GCI. I've always admired their wooden maze layouts, and one of the reasons Grand Duc is one of my favorite No Limits coasters ever.

A real tough decision due to the wood manufacturers being included. Could have been 2 separate polls, 1 steel, 1 wood. So I went with B&M as an overall. Minimal supports, almost always 2 toned, with bright, eye catching colors and that damn sound they make. Otherwise I would go with GCI as a number 2 choice.

GCI has some seriously good-looking wooden coasters. They look less "natural" than CCI/GG, but they are so insanely beautiful. It's just so perfect and swoopy and twisted.

Arrow Megaloopers were in my opinion the most beautiful (scream machine looked great, especially with the lights on at night lighting up all the white support) although B&M hypers like nitro are also great looking.

B&M is always going to win this when it goes out to a general consensus. Even if you asked the general public actually at theme parks with the different type of coasters in front of them, I'm sure the answer would be the B&M roller coaster.

I haven't posted in a while, so here's my opinion:

B&M's coaster look really delicious and smooth, and you gotta love the sounds of the roars when the trains rush through the tracks.

Even though Arrows aren't that smooth, almost all of them are geometrically appealing, which is a major plus for me.

Intamin is a win, for sure.

However, I think my vote has to go to Rocky Mountain Construction for making layouts for their coasters look futuristic.

This ride has a special place in my heart, and despite being only about 125 feet tall, it feels massive when near it and driving by it just looks beautiful.

I still remember when Shivering Timbers was all over the Discovery channel. Out of the whole ride, they seemed to talk about the trick track the most.

Seriously? B&M? Let's talk about Nitro.

But I voted for B&M because they are beyond beautiful.
