The 100 sexiest cars


Definitive? We doubt it. Debatable? Definitely. Somehow or other we've thrashed it out, though. It's not what's cool, nor what's great. It's just a feeling you get...

Click your way through the gallery to find out which models made it into our top 100.


BMW 507: the car that nearly broke BMW

Elvis bought a white one. Does that make the 507 sexy? Not until you know that this gorgeous roadster was supposed to revive BMW's sporting image in the late Fifties, but was so expensive that nobody could afford to buy it. As a result, BMW lost money on every car made between '56 and '59. Ouch.

To add insult to injury, Elvis eventually ended up giving his away to the actress Ursula Andress during one of his famous fits of generosity, but even that doesn't undermine the fact that this is one of the very few BMWs ever that could make its owner seem attractive. Uh-huh-huh.


Audi 100 Coupe S: the Audi coupe that isn't a TT

It doesn't look like an Audi. That's the first thing that strikes you when you see a Coupe 100 S. Styled like a fastback, front-engined and front-wheel drive, the 100 S used a relatively small 1.9-litre four-pot motor to motivate itself, but even for 1969, 110bhp was pretty weak. So why sexy? Because it's an Audi that doesn't look like it. Weird, but attractive.


Lamborghini Muira

Needs no explanation whatsoever - just look at it.


Lamborghini Countach

Few cars engender such emotion as the Countach. An exotic and aggressive wedge with gad-fly doors that even a Trappist monk wouldn't fail to get excited at.

Emma Parker Bowles explains why the Countach still gets her juices flowing


Mercedes C111

Aerodynamics were king for the C111, the Lockheed Blackbird of the car world. The MkIII was the slipperiest version of all - it had a Cd of just 0.191. Beautiful.


Mercedes 300 SL Coupe

The handsome 300SL is nicknamed the Gullwing. It's an obvious choice but is SO glam


Mercedes SLR Coupe

If rarity is sexy, this should be number one. Only two were made - one for Mercedes' head of racing. What a perk.


Mercedes T80

From the totalitarian nightmare of pre-WW2 Germany, this incredible, futuristic fantasy emerged. The Merc T80 was an Earth-going spaceship designed for a land-speed record attempt. Sadly it never had its day thanks to the war.


BMW 3.0 CSL Batmobile

The first car built by BMW Motorsport GmbH, the Batmobile was another homologation special. Bee-Em needed to produce a car to get its 3.2 and 3.5-litre race engines homologated. Said car was sold with an aero pack and became the 'Batmobile'.


BMW M1: Italian glamour, German porn

A supercar with a reputation that greatly outweighs its scarcity. In all only 456 BMW M1 road cars were built, all with a tubular chassis by Lamborghini, a mid-mounted, 24-valve in-line six that came courtesy of BMW and sleek, chiseled, heart-palpitating styling penned by Guigiaro.

The one piece of pseudo-Italian Seventies' exotica that won't beat you up and dump you at the roadside once it's done with you. It's proper tuning to excess, and not a clever engine in sight. Just American muscle injected with German steroids.

Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder: if ever there was a time to lose your head...

The car that made a Lambo a temptation over the equivalent Ferrari eventually lost its head a couple of years after the Coupe first snarled and spat its way into the collective imagination.

Powered by the same 520bhp, V10 engine, the - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER can mince your hairdo at 190mph with the roof down, but better than that, it comes in the kind of colour pallet that takes it from just impressive to downright outrageous.

Sally Carrera: it's all in the voice, dear

This is ridiculous. How can a cartoon car make it into the top 10? Well, just listen to Sally the 911 Carrera and you'll see. Voiced by Bonnie Hunt in Pixar's movie Cars, Sally Carrera is the love interest for Lightning McQueen - the story's hero.

Quite apart from the fact that Sally sounds like what you imagine a 911 might in your weirdest fantasy, she also has some rather interesting pinstriping which would suggest intimate tattoos.
SHE'S HOT FOR SURE !! I'd HIT HER!

Aston Martin DB5
Even discounting its 'Bond, James Bond' connotations, the DB5 is a seriously sexy car. It's an Aston for pity's sake. Hell, it's THE Aston, and it's our number one Brit.




Fiat Cinqueciento

And, yes, ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. A car that embodies the essence of sexiness; a car that drips desirability from its every curve. Yes, it's Italian. Yes, it's a classic. And yes, we want one. Each.
