Default sexiest car of all time??

I was just wanting to get a sort of list of what you guys/gals rate as the best LOOKING car ever made? Im not worried about performance or whether it was a lemon etc.. its all about the looks.

I have only one rule. One car per person.

Here is mine. Aston martin v12 vantage

I could be persuaded otherwise, but at the moment it is the Ferrari California. I don't think it is perfect, but I like that it has style and character.

I know someone who merged a vk commodore (backend) with a
Vl commodore front end. He bought it from auction and didnt realise it was two different cars welded together. We called it the minotaur.

He still has it today, i should go take a picture of it and post it up to walk away with a win... Otherwise my pic is the au series 1 forte closely followed by just about any ferrari.

You had me scratching my head for the last 30 minutes or so on this one.
As much as I hate to admit this, if there was ever one car I always wanted and think fits into this category as well is this one.

One of the rules should be that you have to post a picture of the car.

My pic is the Reventon. God damn pinacle of Lamborghini hyper car styling

Sorry, It is called Chezzoom. Built by Boyd Coddington in about 1995 or so. From memory, it was designed by either Chip Foose or Thom Taylor. (Was a '57 Chev).
