I was gonna say MY Fer-de-lance. That thing is so fun to fly around and wreck shit in.

The Rocinante is an obvious pick.
I also really like the ships in Starfield, mainly because I'm a cassette futurism shill.
Hard sci-fi: The Rocinante
Floppy sci-f: The A-Wing
There's a lot of ships I like in sci-fi, but the one that comes to mind at the moment is the garfish-class cruiser in robotech
Or if we're talking about real spacecraft here, I like the soyuz (and really the whole r-7 derived rocket family to be honest), as I like the look of it's side boosters and the four engine bells on each engine
Space Battleship Yamato, original model
Serenity. Just the nicest "home" you can keep flying.

I'll pick the Bowie from Guardians of the Galaxy.
It's a fast ship that can flown solo, but also comfortably carry six people with their own quarters. It's fast, can cloak itself and defend itself from anything it can't outrun or hide from.
I don't want a big starship that needs a big crew to fly. But, I don't want a small ship that can't carry guests.
Certainly not the Event Horizon π
βIβll take the Lewis and Clark to a safe distance, and then I will launch TAC missiles at the Event Horizon until I'm satisfied she's vaporized. Fuck this ship!β

The Slave I
Sorry I meant: Boba Fett's Ship π
How the fuck could they not even give it a new name?! One of my favorites as well.
The Ebon Hawk
Odyssee class!
The Phalanx
Despite the many, many problems with the show, I'd say The Lexx.
Rebel Blockade Runner, mostly because it's the first ship you really see in A New Hope and my first interaction with the Star Wars franchise as a kid in the early 90s.

The lexx of course it's the most powerful ship in both universes.
Discovery (2001) and Leonov (2010).
Or, from system shock 2, the Von Braun and the Rickenbacker.
... you know what, they're spaceships, so all of them.
Since Roci is everywhere...
Do Gundam count? Aerial or Quiet Zero are pretty baller
It's "favorite," not "OP," so sure. I like the ST film Birds of Prey, just for sheer awesome aesthetic.
The Nomandy from Mass Effect
I always liked the Nostromo's design.
Swims Against the Current in a Stream Reflecting the Sun
Francisco Franco's PM, Luis Carrero Blanco's car turning him into a Good Fascistβ’ and Spain's first astronaut
I have real soft spots for the Ghost from Star Wars Rebels and the Normandy from Mass Effect.
For the Ghost though, I really love its strange shape, the WW2 bomber tail gun, and the attached shuttle. It's both so typically Star Wars and yet still new.
