Cars that are worshipped by many petrolheads around the globe :

So these are the cars that in my opinion, are respected by each of their enthusiasts. These are some famous and highly regarded cars that have many fans in the world. I believe that you’ll find at least 2 or 3 cars that you love.
So let’s get started!!!!

1. Hot Hatchbacks

Small, practical, affordable, usable, and fun to drive. Those are the elements that makes Hot Hatches attractive for most people.

2. Classic Race cars

250 GTO, Porsche 956, Bugatti Type 35 and many others classic racer. Some of These cars has exceptional history : owners, racing history and victories.
Racing History, originality, and desirability adds the value of these cars. There are many classic race car/road racer fans in the world. But due to the value of some of the cars, they usually owned only by the most elite petrolheads in the world.

European cars :

3. Jaguar E-Type

Why? just look at it!
It has been deemed the most beautiful car of all time, over and over again since 1960’s.

4. Aston Martin

Power. Beauty. Soul.
Vastly related to James Bond, this car posses many fans thanks to it’s elegant look, and fine image. And Aston Martin always have distinct personality that you won’t find in anything Italian, American, or Japanese.

5. Mclaren F1

Used to be the fastest production car in the world, this car will give you a driving experience like nothing else!
For a Driving worshiper, this car is superior. Here’s why : You seat in the middle like you do in an F1 car, it has a racing BMW V12 engine, it is lightweight, has no driving aids, and it is fitted with manual transmission, what else do you want?

6. Porsche Carrera GT

Arguably the last proper German Analog Supercar, it is definitely one of the best and memorable supercar in 21st century. I think it safe to say that this is every petrolhead’s favorite analog supercar.

7. BMW M

BMW M, “M” (for Motorsport) was initially created to facilitate BMW’s racing program, which was very successful in the 1960s and 1970s.
There are reasons why M cars are truly lovable:
All Ms are good, and each and every one of them will provide driving pleasure for years to come.
And the fact that there are so many choices: 5 generations of M3 & M5, not to mention the M6,M1, and other M cars. That’s why there are so many BMW M enthusiast out there.

8. AMG

AMGs are famous for their racing history (and wins). They are very successful in Le mans, DTM, and other Motorsports. But they even more famous for making or tuning high performance mercedes road cars. Those cars usually compete with their German rivals.
Their cars are definitely more diverse than M divison. Ranging from small hatchbacks, sport car, supercars, and even 4x4s (and 6x6!).

9. Ferrari

I know, it sounds a bit obvious. With Racing pedigree and some of the best sportcars, undeniably this is the most worshipped car brands in the world with the largest amount of enthusiast. Ferrari branded perfumes, hats, or shirts are the things that are very salable, right?

10. Lamborghini Countach

There was a time where almost every young boys have a poster of this car in their bedrooms.

11. Pagani & Koenigseggs

Why? Because the fact that they can compete with major car manufacturer with such limited budget and resources. That forced them to make some innovation over the years(some of them are tremendous). Calling Pagani a car manufacturer is a bit of understatement, since their cars are always deemed pieces of art. And I believe that Koenigsegg will always be included in most people’s dream garage. They are everyone’s heroes.

12. Porsche 911s

The most iconic sports car in the world, with the most famous name, with an iconic shape, and with probably the largest amount of fans across the globe. Not to mention the variety of models, and special editions.This car has become a benchmark for all sports car since 1963.

Let's continue to Japanese Cars

13. Japanese sports cars

Needless to say, cars like GTR, Supra, RX7, etc, are highly regarded in the world of JDM. Loved by many people, these cars are tunable, have great value, and vastly used in Motorsports. They love it so much, some people actually prefer this type of car than anything else. It’s easy to see why though.

14. AE86

Some might say that this car is a bit overrated. But If you’re a fan of JDM and Initial D, chances are you’ll worship this car. And this is a good car indeed….

15. Mazda MX-5 Miata

No fancy badge, no luxury interior, and no complicated electronics. It’s just a simple, Rear wheel drive, analog, front engine sports car. It doesn’t need to be fast, it is about the driving pleasure that the car gives you. If you’re a driving enthusiast, this is the right car for you.

16. Honda/Acura NSX

Let’s not forget the NSX! The Japanese Ferrari! (sort of)

What about American cars?

17. Ford Mustangs

This car is an absolute icon for muscle cars. For a car enthusiast, knowing the history of the Ford Mustang is as basic as knowing the laws of thermodynamics are to a physicist. This is the car that brought sporting dash and styling at a price almost anyone could afford. Racing History and special editions just makes this car even more lovable to some people.

18. Dodge Challenger & Charger

Old or new, these cars are always regarded as american muscle icons, with so many fans around the world. The new Hellcat version just make both of them even better.

19. Viper & Corvette

Definitely The most famous American sport cars. Corvette are always famous for it’s “bang-for-your-bucks” value. While the Viper (especially the old ones) are famous for it’s purest driving experience. No wonder, these cars attracts a lot of car guys around the world. (Especially in the US)

Ford GT

This car is a prove that American Car can outdo the blue blooded Ferrari and their European rivals in Motorsport (Le Mans). Surely this car will be written in the history book as one of the most successful Race cars ever. And The 2005 version is definitely one of the most beautiful looking car ever made.
Ford GT deserve the respect from every American car enthusiast that regard it as their patriot.

AC Cobra

AC Cobra or Shelby Cobra is a British sports car with an American Ford V8, produced intermittently in both the US and UK since 1962. This car is loved by many petrolheads, that’s why you’ll see many of them in car events. So why people love it? Because Driving a Lightweight car with a big engine, that must be a lot of fun.
