What are your picks for the coolest, the sexiest, the wackiest, and the wildest spaceships in sci-fi?

Some of my choices…

E.T. phone home: The TARDIS from Dr. Who has to be one of the best conceived (especially considering their limited TV budget). It’s a true spatial marvel. If you want to “reach out and touch someone”, then the Doctor’s time/space police call box is for you.

Meals on wheels: The Bistromath from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy books. Designed like an upturned Italian restaurant, it’s the perfect ship for those that want to eat and run.

The soft-light holographic ship from Red Dwarf (the one Rimmer wanted to become crew of): de[i]light[/i]ful.

The Heart of Gold from the Hitchhiker’s books: the most improbable ship in existence. Can change size as Zaphod learned on the Frogstar world… “Is that a rocket in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?" (NOT Zarniwoop).

The Lexx: It’s a giant bug that blows up planets… Watch out for its patented Golden Shower. Kaboom!
