I'm disappointed no one has mentioned the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione.

Top Gear review of the car:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdiO5sMbqOc

I have to agree with Jeremy Clarkson on this.

"A car can never be art, because for something to be art, it must have no purpose other than itself, no function. Look at this, it doesn't drive very well, it's not been built with much care, and it is hopelessly impractical. What Alfa has built then is not a car, it's a centerfold, what Alfa has built, is fourteen feet of art."
