I'll start this off. The number one car over the past 50 years is probably the Porsche 956/962. For the following reasons:
- Most successful race car of all time.
- Most victories and podium finishes of any car in history
- Dominated Group C racing in Europe and then went on to dominate IMSA racing here in the US
- Wins:141, Second place finishes:134, Third place finishes:140
- Engine and drivetrain are based upon the Mezger engine, whose design originated with the 1964 911.
- Still holds the record time at the Nürburgring (6:25.91 West Germany Stefan Bellof, Porsche 956, 1983, WEC)
- Great looking piece of autmotive history:
