Easy, Agera R. Only one that checks all the boxes. It is sexy, it is powerful, it is fast, it is fun.
The Agera is a brute supercar. THAT is what a sports car is all about to me. Something that demands respect from the driver. If a 6 year old girl can drive it, what is the point? The fact that the Agera is RWD is a selling point. You can play with it. There is danger involved if you drive like a moron. It is not a car any idiot can hop in and drive. Not sure if the Agera is still sold in manual like the CCX, but that would be a HUGE benefit. I know the others aren't. Bottom line, best looking and most fun to drive.
Second would be the Huayra. The major problem with it is the looks. I'd take a Zonda over it any day. The Huayra is going to have a level of detail you won't see elsewhere. It will be the second most fun to drive here. The engine sound is also lacking here.
Third is the Veyron SS. In fact, it would be 20th or more in other lists. It just embodies everything I don't like in a sports car. Over 4000lbs, looks like a squished VW Beetle, has AWD, too many electronic controls, etc. The only thing that the Veyron does good, imo, is reliability. This car will last a long time of hard driving. Bottom line, for double the price you get half the fun.

CF body looks great but also black or white would look good, or maybe something more exotic and special like yellow or blue. Definitely a hard decision! are you thinking about getting one? the waiting list is very long from what i know
