Several times I've tried to design the site in those colours but could never do it justice.
The best looking cars in motorsport (outside of F1)

Close to my heart rather than being 'the best looking.' These Daytonas won their class back in the eighties in what was the fantastic IMSA series and somehow i've ended up owning not just one, but two of them!

The GT-R is one of my modern favourites, it might not have the smooth curves of the GT40 but my all time favourite does...
The classic XJ220 LM....
Jaguar in green... she wears it so well. 
Although unlike some of the others, that livery is awful. Was it ever called a carrot car?
engine to the top step at Le Mans!

All the Chaparrals should be in here. Pure function over form.
Are the chaparrals the ones that look like cardboard boxes built around rocket engines? They are strangely cool

Ah yes, the Chaparral 2J: Fan-generated, sliding-skirt assisted downforce 8 YEARS before Gordon Murray used the idea on the Brabham BT46 and was proclaimed a genius.
The Chaparrals were among the most innovative cars ever, as well as being, to my eyes at least, among the best-looking as well (the 2J is no looker, but, as was said at the time, it bore as much relationship to current cars as the first steam ship bore to the sailing vessels of the day).

The 1966 Eagle Indy car. The F1 version, which appeared with the Weslake V-12 engine in 1967, is, to me the prettiest open-wheel racer of all time.
Then, for Alfa fans, there is the T33/3
