2005 Sexy Car Buyer's Guide


by Martha Hindes

Sexy cars. They can make one green with envy. They can take the breath away. They can make one lust at the very sound of a well-tuned throaty exhaust, at the sight of five-spoke sport wheels poised to surge away from a stop, at the sultry profile of molded steel like the carved lines of a classic Renaissance statue.

Sporty, sexy, alluring automobiles have a way of firing up passionate pursuits that can make personal daydreams pale in comparison. They toy with emotions, and tease with a stolen touch through the guarded perimeter at an auto show, or a vision through a dealership window.

Did a ripple-toned Kevin Sorbo, internationally famed as Hercules, ever have the persuasive power of a thunder-pumped Ford GT? Does a cougar-bait Ashton Kutcher stand a chance against the lure of Porsche, or Maserati, or Corvette? They might simply be teasers that fade with the emergence of a new generation of unattainable boy toys (for the distaff side, at least).

But cars. Whether man or woman, boy or girl, one can feel their unyielding siren spell. After all, they say lovers may come and lovers may go, but the passionate lure of a tempting auto can seem to go on forever. For RTM's Ninth Annual Sexy Car Buyers Guide, we offer some of the outstanding sexy cars that have proven their ability to cast such a spell.
