The Rocinante is an obvious pick.
I also really like the ships in Starfield, mainly because I'm a cassette futurism shill.

Certainly not the Event Horizon ๐
โIโll 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!โ

The Slave I
Sorry I meant: Boba Fett's Ship ๐
How the fuck could they not even give it a new name?! One of my favorites as well.
Space Battleship Yamato, original model
Serenity. Just the nicest "home" you can keep flying.
Penny Royal, from Neal Asher's Technician and Dark Intelligence.

The Kiith Somtaaw Archangel-class Dreadnought
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.
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.
Odyssee class!
Swims Against the Current in a Stream Reflecting the Sun
Despite the many, many problems with the show, I'd say The Lexx.
The Phalanx
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.
The Ebon Hawk
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 Nomandy from Mass Effect
Mega maid. Commence suction.
Lakon Spaceways Diamondback Explorer. Hands down. Like a little cicada with huge fucking engines hanging out of it. Cozy way to map the galaxy.

The wedge ships belonging to the Chitzas in the books from the "quantum series" by Douglas Phillips. they were bad ass ships ran by badass little porcupine dudes. They were able to travel beyond the visible universe in hours. The books were so much fun.
