360 Modena there is no "sexier" car (for the lack of a better word) than it.

It is followed very close by the Aston DB9; understated elegance with a hint of muscle lying underneath it is the quintessential British sports car.

I've dreamed of a Black Maranello ever since it came out. My favorite Ferrari of all time.

The Aston DB7 and DB9 are the most refined cars in the world.

I love BMW so i'll give the Z8 my #4

Re: Best Looking Car?

damn, this is a hard choice. b/w the modena, the DB9, the SL55, the murcielago......hmmmm. i think i'll agree with Neutrino and vote for the modena coz it's what a car would look like if i had any artistic ability and designed it myself. haha

Re: Best Looking Car?

the modena, like neutrino said, is so sexy looking. the sexiest looking car out there. pininfarina needs all the awards in the world for desiging the 360.

Re: Best Looking Car?

P.S. Did you know that the BMW Z8 and the Aston Martin DB9 are designed by the same guy(Henrik Fisker)? Both are gorgeous cars though, man he IS good!

Ian Callum IS the 'effin man. As much as I love Pininfarina, everytime I see the DB7 I see a car that is a rarified classic that will only grow prettier as the years go on. Callum's true baby, the F-Type, never made it to production (Ford, in its infinite wisdom, decided that the Lincoln Navigator and Aviator would be better ways to invest its money) but the DB7, his breakout design, remains a classy and breath-taking testament to everything that has made GT cars beautiful.

Oh, and just in case some folks aren't too familiar with these cars, I think it'd be a wise idea to post some pictures.


Ferrari 456GTM


Ferrari 360 Modena


Ferrari 550 Maranello


Lamborghini Murcielago


Lotus Espirit


Maserati 3200GT


BMW Z8 (technically the Z07 concept, but all you have to do is delete the 50's style headrest fairing to see a Z8)


Porsche 911 (996 generation, GT3 version)


Aston Martin DB7 (my vote, sexy car)


Aston Martin DB9 (cute, but really not a worthy follow up to the DB7)


Aston Martin Vanquish

There you have it. A pretty collection of some of the finest Europe has to offer. True, we left out lovelies like the Spyker, the Morgan Aero 8, the Marcos Mantula, the TVR 350C, Cerbera, Tuscan, and Tamora, the Noble M12 GTO, and so on. But hey, I didn't write the poll. I just gave some nice pictures from one of my favorite sites.

Re: Best Looking Car?

I'm going with the Vanquish, looks like it has balls, does have balls.

Followed ever so closely by the 360 Modena and DB7

It's so great that I live in Southern California and have the opportunity to see most of these cars in person. I have to say that any pictures of Ferrari 360 in magazines and on the internet does not do it justice (although still looks very good), but when you see the car in person, it's like WOW what an absolutely beautiful car.

Porsche has my vote. I think Porsche has its styling nailed. That GT3 is enough to make me squirm in my seat. Driving one was an experience that I will never forget.

Re: Best Looking Car?

i have never seen a 360 up close, but if you say it looks better in real life than in pictures, holy mother of god it has to be the best looking car ever. astons look awesome but IMO they can't touch ferrari's design. and i also love the look of tvr's, especially the tuscan.
