    For looks, I would say the Saleen S7 or Zonda but I still voted for my favorite, the mighty Mclaren F1.

    I think that Pagani is exotic for people cause it isn't wide spread like our loved Ferrari.

    Hands down a tie between the CLK GTR (750bhp version) and the Panoz GTR1. Street legal versions of course.

    Those are real Supercars. The rest just catch their vapors

    Maybe the 911 GT1 too, but it doesn't look as good.

    [trying to suck up for another shotgun ride] I didn't say that I like the car less then an Enzo.. :p I think its styling isn't as outlandish.... but, still, after that shotgun ride, I'd choose the F40 over the Enzo in terms of everything ;) [/trying to suck up for another shotgun ride]

    I see your point, but IMHO the 360 example isn't a good analogy. to me, comparing a 360 to a zonda is like comparing a mustang to a 599.
    I see 360's and 430's all the time. I don't bother turning my head for a 360, 430, etc. The only ferrari's that turn my head are the "super" ferraris. The others have lost the exotic proportions
    The zonda is a very rare beast. It doesn't really need a redesign. When the roads become flooded (relatively speaking), then it is time for a redesign. The 360 is a common sight, and the 430 is becoming more common. So pretty soon they will be due for a redesign..

    Lamborghini's Design of the Countach made Ferrari build the Boxer?
    No, no, no!
    Wasn't the Boxer at the time of the Miura and teh Countach comes later!

    Why the CLK GTR? Because it has a tendency to fly?! :)

    I cant vote, I believe I'm still to new to the forums a.k.a. noob but I thought I'd voice my opinion anyways...

    For me the answer is and will always be the McLaren F1 on all levels!

    Only 100 produced in 4 years. *72 street versions* The remaining being GTR cars.

    Formerly the fastest street legal production car in the world. (A span of 12 years since initial production in 1993 until 2005 when the record was broken by the Koenigsegg CCR. The record was the longest for any street legal / production car in the history of automobiles.) Yes I know there's contention, especially because of the term "production car" and what that actually means.

    There’s so much more that could be written but I'm at work and need to keep my answer short. Plus I'd hate to preach since I'm a new member :)

    That’s a tough choice. With each one you see you instantly know that it’s a one of a kind. Every time I stand next to one of these masterful pieces of machinery that someone has managed to harness all that is evil, put it on 4 wheels and give it a steering wheel, I have to take a moment and just gaze. As for most exotic looking, each was the best for their time slot. It really is a tough choice.

    There are others that are not on this list that have the same effect. Hence the “others” option.

    Personally I don’t like the Vyron, its look only comes from the big a$$ front grill thingy and the wing on the back, other than that is a coupe with a really big engine. It still stands out but its got nothing on the looks of the CLK GTR, Mc F1, S7, Zonda, Enzo ect ect ect.

    Zonda. Incredibly stunning and I haven't even seen one in person. I recommend checking out evo's article on the roadster.

    The car and photography is to die for.

    An all carbon Zonda Roadster with a red interior on top of the immaculate attention to detail?? I get palpitations...

    OTOH, the Enzo in person is quite striking. Pictures do not do it justice at all.

    You don't think the F40 is exotic looking? I actually laughed out loud....

    If you ask me the F40 is exotic as they come without looking cartoonish like many others.

    +1. The F40 got my vote. My favourie is the Macca but its not as "exotic" looking in real life as an F40, F50, Enzo etc.

    A Mangusta looks more exotic then an F40, as does a Diablo. The F40 has exotic styled elements, such as the wing, and rear end in general with all the duct work; and once you lift the body, it looks like a race car pure and simple. That said, it does look fantastic. But not as exotic. Does it look plain? Far from it.

    While the F40 didn't get my vote, I agree with the rest of this.

    I've heard that both 5 and 6 LM versions exist. And weren't they all originally Papaya Orange? I could be wrong.

    I have really heard arguments for both 5 and 6 for quite a while now.

    I voted for the Countach.

    I know that there are quicker, more exotic cars by today's standards, but when the Countach was first launched in 1974 it looked like a spaceship from another planet with performance to match.

    It subsequently remained one of the most iconic, brutal and high performance supercars for over a decade until the arrival of the F40........

    I feel like if you showed the average person them all, someone would say that the S7 looks like a "race car"

    I said F50 I think it is exactly what an exotic is, it also seems to be the most unseen.
