What is your top 3?

I'd like to know what is everyone's top three current favorite car designs currently on sale today. It can go anywhere from exotics to GTs or everyday cars. We're not talking about performance but purely aesthethics. I know it's different for everyone but I'd love to see which models come around often.
Per example a Carrera GT or 360 Modena wouldn't count since they're both discontinued models.

I already know Yumchach answer.

My pick:

1-Lamborghini LP640 Roadster
2-Aston Martin V8 Vantage
3-Porsche 997 Carrera4S

And you?
