Gorgeous, Sexy, Amazing, Beautiful.
I am not talking about women (although this blog could apply to them too). I am am talking about, you guessed cars. All the words you see here can be and have been used to describe cars for many decades now. There have been many discussions on what exactly is the most beautiful car in history. This post is going to be another one of those discussions.
First of all what is it exactly that makes a car Beautiful. Taking into account only looks (which is all I am focusing on in this post). The car has to make jaws drop every where it goes, being very exclusive will help in this pursuit. It has to look unique, nothing can look like it because if there is a clone out there, what is to stop some one from saying that the other car looks better. It must have a certain sex appeal, whether it attracts men or women doesn't matter. What matters is how many of each sex it attracts. First and foremost though is what I like to call the wall factor, This basically means how good a picture of this car would look hanging on your wall (simple right).
Many cars over the century old automotive landscape have fit the criteria for world's sexiest car, For this reason I cannot cover all of them. To do this my blog post would have to be about 150 pages. I could theoretically write a completely separate blog on the subject. I will more than likely revisit this at a later date, but for now let's get down to it.

The Jaguar E-Type. How many ten most beautiful car lists has this dame been on. For good reason, It is all but automotive perfection as far as looks go. I however do not believe it to be the most gorgeous car out there. Why? well for a few reasons. It is gorgeous but with the roof up it looks a little odd, It's hood screams....ahem....compensation. It's wall factor could be much higher in my books, I mean how many twelve year old boys have this hung on their wall, I could be wrong but I'm guessing not many. It does however OOOOZZZE sex appeal, It's curvacious hips, It's low hunkered down stance. You don't see cars from the early sixties that look like this in stock form, They didn't really exist. So as far as being unique. At the time nothing could touch it and generations to come have borrowed from it. Hell there is even a company that makes a modern version of it called the Eagle Speedster ($500,000+ dollars). So yeah it's on the list but (sorry Jeremy Clarkson) it doesn't win.

I cannot in my right mind write a blog about the best looking car in the world and not include the SRT/Dodge Viper. I am probably going to take flak for this but I don't care. I know it's not pretty, it may not even be sexy. No one can deny however, this car looks BADASS!. It looks like it is going to beat the hell out of you for no reason (from the reviews I've seen, while driving, it does just that). This car does one thing very very well. It evokes emotion. From almost every angle this car looks, More than any other car, scary. The best looking car in the world should evoke some form of emotion in the viewer and the Viper does just that, so it's on the list.

I am normally not a huge fan of 20's and 30's car's, I am more of an exotic car guy. One car that I would own in a heart beat though would be the Cord 810 convertible. This car is breathtaking. Nothing looks like it now nor has anything ever looked like it. Definitely a unique ride, The wall hang factor is not high however, again you won't see these in the bedrooms of any ten year old. The styling on this car, with the coffin hood and the breather pipes coming out the side make it look both elegant and menacing at the same time. Which is something many car's try to do but fail miserably. If only they weren't somewhere around 800 thousand dollars.

This is another car that isn't so much pretty as it is; get in, sit down and shut up badass. If ever the muscle car "look" was perfected. It would have been on this beast. The sixty seven Pontiac GTO. wall hang factor is high for this one, It would and does look great on a wall. The smooth lines and the hood mounted tach along with the nostrils on the hood make this car one of the best looking bad boys in automotive history. The best looking muscle car period, in my humble opinion.

Let's face it. Horacio Pagani Knows how to design cars. The Zonda is and was gorgeous For many years. The new Huayra however. Now that is his crowning achievement. It is one of very few cars that can be called a rolling work of art. Every angle on this car is stunning. It doesn't stop on the interior either. In the automotive world there is not a damn thing that looks like this. The swept back roof line and the bug eye mirror's. The beauty is in the details in this car, The name badge is milled out of solid chunk of aircraft grade aluminum and takes twenty four hours to craft. The wheels are also made out of a (much larger) piece of aluminum, they take 4 days though. The only other car that could maybe compete with this in the details would be the Spyker C8 laviolette. I even think that may be beaten by this. it is easily on any looks based car list and could very well win if not for the next two cars.

The 2013 Aston Martin Vanquish. This car is all but the epitome of "art-on-wheels". It was designed specifically to be beautiful. It is not the fastest car, nor is it the best handling. When you buy this car, you are paying 397 thousand dollars for a painting that you can drive to the golf course. The wall hang factor is sky high, It is the only car that looks like this and when you see it you instantly love it. It's curvy, It's sexy and it's mean all at the same time. It also sounds intoxicating. Why isn't it the best looking car than, It does everything that is required of it. The reason it is not the best looking car is because of it's big brother...

The Aston Martin One-77 is in my opinion, the most beautiful car ever made. It's exclusive, it's breathtakingly gorgeous, kids hang it on they're wall, it's unique (only 77 were made) and it evokes emotions like no other car. Who cares if it cost a million dollars and who cares if it's "trunk" can only fit a small purse (maybe). Look at it! Do yourself a favor, Google images of this car. The air vents on the front and the slats on the side. Everything about this car says touch me. For these reason's and many more. I believe this to be the pinnacle of automotive design. Aston Martin has been creating sculpture for many years, They are unrivaled at doing this. They have out done themselves with this one though. The Pagani Huayra came close but I still think the One-77 is the king of the automotive supermodels.
