What's the car that turns YOUR head?

In my area it is extremely rare to see any exotics. That being said, my stock 996 is one of the nicest cars I ever see on the road. 996s are very few and far between in my area as well. I love the lines of the BMW 335i coupe and the Audi S5. I did see a Pontiac Solstice COUPE the other day. Not the convertible, those are everywhere, but the coupe is a really nice looking car. But, the one car that always gets a glance from me is the Dodge Challenger. Of all the retro re-hashes, that car is all kinds of bad-***!

Too long of a list... all classics and exotics including Porsches as I like to see if they did anything custom.

Cheers

Porsche's, Ferrari's, Lambo's etc. I am a huge fan of exotic cars. I jump out of my seat when I see a nice exotic car go by. Then my girlfriend spends the next half hour listening to me go on about the body style etc of the car that has passed. She always gives me the same reply "your obsessed". Now that I think about she should be giving me more of a reply. Oh and she says I love my car more than her

I agree with Purplxd... too long a list.

BMW 850csi, Porsche 356's, BMW Z8.... this could be a long list. Rare & older cars are cool.

I'm sure it changes from time to time for a lot of people but mine for 2010 was this:




Not the fastest or the best but certainly one of the most sexiest imo. This setiment has also been echoed by Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear.

The Mclaren F1, Merc 300 gullwing, and Dino 246 Gt also holds a special place.

I would gladly mortgage my house and sell some organs if the driver were included with the car.

I look at anything that looks like it is tasteful. Whether it be a lambo or a 240sx

Thumbs up

I still think that the Aston Martins have a beautiful body style.
