Matra M670.
Matra entered racing to win "for the honour of France".
This car won Le Mans 3 years running - 1972,73, 74 and then withdrew after 74 having achieved what they set out to do in F1 and Sportscars.
In the process they had developed the F1 V12 engine to a screaming success. A sound you HAVE to experience once in our life
Has to make it one of the best ever.

best car . probably the Pug 905 ..
altough the 330 P4 didn;t won LeMans . i rate them higher then the GT40
There is no terrible way of winning
there is just winning

Well, I would have to say that the absolute best Le Mans car of all time is the Porsche 917. There were multiple entries the two years that this car won (1970 (Hans Hermann and Dickie Atwood) and 1971 (Dr. Helmut Marko and Gijs Van Lennep)) at Le Mans, but I have one particular car that I would like to point out. Obviously, there is much credit owed to the two winning Porsches, but I have to give praise to the No. 25 Porsche 917LH (LH stands for Lang Heck, which is German for long tail) raced at Le Mans by the Salzburg team in 1970 with the driver lineup of Vic Elford and Kurt Ahrens Jr. This car was ahead of its time and changed Le Mans racing forever. Porsche was the most radical manufacturer in the early 70's, and this is a fine example of their brilliance.

The Porsche 917 LH of 1970 could easily make a mess of the Ford GT 40
