There is no doubt, in my mind, that the 330 P4 is indeed sexiest; HOWEVER, I might actually be able to buy the Aston! The Ferrari has to be $2+million...

The Finn's P4 car **** shots win the prize, I think. When I saw the thread title, the P4 was the car that leapt to mind.

But here are a couple more candidates. First, one of the most beautiful racecars ever built, imo:



.. and an obvious choice for most sexy, uniquely in silver:



And the two cars that I lust after most of all, together:

Not a bad one in the lot.

Well, the Pinto could use some work.

I submit:

get rid of that BMW. that is not sexy, its ugly and its famous! cool history!

i think they finally have some sexy cars in GRAND AM DP, and its not the car pictured. its the new Vet DP.

dont forget the old 908 and 917s of lemans. Love the GT40 in Gulf colors!

now, my vote goes to the new porsche v8 racer.

I'm a bit partial to Sports Racers - Love the old CanAm cars. Here is a pic of Stohr D Sports Racer from 2011 Runoffs. The Stohr WF1 has the advantage of being sexy, fast, and available for a reasonable amount of $. Note how low the rear wing is mounted, also lots of carbon fiber. This SCCA class encourages innovation. Lots to be learned from these drivers/builders.

I like the street version of the 962 when it comes to this category of cars. Because it looks the same as the race car sans graphics.
