So many new cars have those damn LEDs up front, including the new Kia Sportage, Nissan GT-R, and most of the 2011 Mercedes line-up. They are becoming overplayed. But yes, the Audi ones do catch your attention the most.

This question took quite a bit of thought. But yup, C6 Z06. Very few cars aside from exotics make me stop in my tracks like a Z06 does, and it usually does so without fail.
Audi S4, S5. It's not just because of the LEDs either. Even from the back, my eyes just automatically follow these cars.
any Viper
GT500
Challenger SRT8
CTS-V
AC Cobra
1G, '70-'73 F-Body
'64-'70 Mustang
big VIP cars, like the GS and LS past and present
Yes, it is an exotic, but I can't help but mention widebody Porsches

Someday, an RS6 Avant+
AS most have said, the list would be longer than John Holmes pecker. But the ones that come to mind without getting exotic:
SL63 AMG Those big Merc 2 door SL's have always made my head turn.
Buick Grand National Always able to pick it out of a crowd.
R34 GTR - I see the R34's here, but every time it's a GT-R, I damn near hurt myself looking.

A lot of the cars mentioned are pushing the exotic car definition. Maybe a better term would be "everyday car"? Like something under $60,000, for example.

I see a C6 Zo6 weekly, even in the winter. The owner has snow tires on it. I have also seen a new A8 running around town quite a bit lately so your 60k cap needs to be raised.

FWIW, Corvettes of any kind up here are pretty rare.

8-series = good one. Every time I see one, its like wow. Love those pillarless windows on such a big coupe and I've always been a sucker for hideaway headlights. If I wasn't so damn scared of electrical gremlins.........
X6 has road presence too, as much as I dislike it now.

could be just me but...
i almost bought one but decided against it because of reliability issues. then i bought my 2G TL and found out about the tranny soon after
the new Range Rovers are too common where I live. the amount i see here rivals Beverly Hills.
