Reminds me of the time my ex-wife texted me for some money for the kids for something. I responded "Y" meaning yes. She responded with a reason (thinking Y meant why) I texted "I said Y". That's when the fight started.

How the hell did the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione make the list? It smacks of an old TVR.

I would have added a 246 Dino, a series 1 xke coupe, auburn boatail speedster, and to make it a little more interesting my vote for the ugliest car ever produced, the Pontiac Aztec.

911 Top 10 Sexiest Cars

This list is pretty spot on. Although I'd eliminate these 4

Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione1957
Cadillac Eldorado Brougham
Mercedes-Benz SSK,
Jaguar XKSS

Corrected List:

1)550Spyder

2)Mercedes C-111

3)Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer

4)1973 Carrera RS

Jaguar XKSS needs to stay. It is an iron stif*ie.

The 911/930 is questionable with 74-89 bumpers. The RS is a better fit. 550/904 even better.

Ferrari Testa Rossa vs the GTO? I know which way I would vote.

Excellent point. I stand corrected.

They show the 930's side profile when it should be from a frontish angle to accentuate those hips.

Does my M491 count as sexy???? It has the hips...It might not have the balls, though.

Edit: On another note, Dr. Porsche's design for Mercedes-Benz (the SSK) made the list, too.
