Something about the BMW Sauber.08 grabs my undivided attention...especially the Transformer look :)

Also love the F2008

Image

But as per the previous post(s) the F2004 is my all time favourite :D

Best Looking car for me has always been the Super Aguri SA07.

Image

But another beautiful car is also the Spyker.

C'mon, these have barely been mentioned (if not at all!)

Westlake Eagle Mk1 - 1966 The nose, wheels, and single racing strip set this cigar-tube above the rest in terms of elegant styling.
Image

Mclaren M7C - 1969 Anything in orange usually looks good, but not THIS good!
Image

Brabham BT44 (non Minadri livery) - 1974 Simple, epic front wing, great offset to the black wheels/tires
Image

Arrows A2 - 1979 Looks like a cross between a spaceship and WWII tank. Stunning!
Image

Jordan 191 - 1991 Especially from the back, this car is sleek, very unique, amazing livery with the 7UP sponsor

I would add
The Ferrari 126, especially the C version
The Arrows A19 (bulged sidepods version)

Almost all the Lotus 'JPS' cars, especially this one

I love all the early 90's cars because of the front of the cockpit having the really nice shape toward the front wing and just admire the Jordan 191 for its sheer beauty, two favourites:

Two others I absolutely love are the F2007 and the MP4-23, I think the darker red of the Ferrari was a striking colour and for both cases, I really like the amount of aero trickery in these cars, especially the huge winglets on the cockpit of the Ferrari. I know winglets and flow conditioners aren't everyone's kettle of fish, but the amount of engineering behind it really appealed to me.
