I think its the Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe, one of the sleekest designs I have ever seen on a racecar
 
Jaguar XJR-9 (specifically without the rear wheel covers - I hate those) '88:

In my opinion, one of the best looking modern Formula One cars: The BMW F1.08.

Mclaren F1 GTR/LM 95-96

Sauber Mercedes C9

1968_Ford_GT40_Mk_I.jpg

68 GT40

Not going to repost but others I would have included:
Ferrari 250GTO (I never really paid attention to this car till recently and think it is the best looking Ferrari ever created)

Bentley Speed 8 (nicest Leman's car of recent times)

and any of the F1 cars from around 87-95. I got so used to the ugly complexity of F1 cars the last few years I forgot how good they used to look and was reminded with this years F1 cars (Don't get me wrong the Rear wing looks rediculous but from front to rear wheel, the cars look so much nicer now)

Finally, can't find a picture of it but the Audi R8 from 24h of Nurb last week
 
The UenoClinic McLaren was definitely one of the more stunning McLaren racers.

The new LP560-4 Super Trofeo cars are pretty good looking as well.

No pictures but the 1989 Ferrari 640 F1 car and the 1967 Ferrari 330 P4 are the two best looking cars ever for me.
 
Toyota GTone TSO20 '99

Seconded. It was the first racecar I saw live on a TV, and I was astonished how it looked more like a airplane than our cars looked. From then and onwards, I've always been amazed by its simple looks, yet the monstrous speed it carried at the Le Mans track.
 
OK, just watched the Le Mans Legends race, and saw the most beautiful racecar ever to turn a wheel!
Lister Jaguar Costin coupé GT (I think)

Windscreen is too small, and the side windows are too big. Would look better as a spyder.
