I got inspired by the Science cruiser request thread. And my love for the Vesta is also partly to thank/blame (choose whichever you like) for this thread.
I own both the T5 and T6 Vesta packs and, while I do like how they look and perform, I don't consider them to even be the best-looking or performing science ships in the game, far less the best overall ships.
Personally I think both performance wise and looks they are meh. Far better looking ships in game, but each to their own I guess.

Actually most awesome and best looking ships are from RD Promotions and Lockboxes.
Still, the T6 variants with both console sets are one (or three) mean ships... if you compare them with other Zen store ships...
They're not BAD, per se, but there are definitely cooler ships for looks (Scimitar-Class, Acheros-Class, etc), and generally more powerful ones out there.

Scimitard is quite possibly the ugliest Trek ship of all time.
Base model isn't super pretty, but when you work with the T6s, you can make a very, VERY cool beast.

I disagree.
I've always heard people say how good they look, and I really can't disagree with them.
But I do mean the T5 skins btw.
I do wish I could remove my vote since it's not at all what I actually think.

I have hated the Scim since the very first time I saw it on screen in Nemesis. Nothing had changed that opinion.
Have you seen the beauty of the Flambard, Khopesh, and Shamsir? MUCH prettier 'Birds, and the kitbash is nice
The Vesta was proof on how STO make the new z-store ships uglier and fuglier.
While it is obviously not the best looking nor the best performing ship I really have to disagree with you on it being fugly as far as the T5 variants are concerned, there's plenty of worse looking ships out there and the T5 Vesta is in no way one of them.

To me the only thing better than a canon Scimitar is Cryptic's Tulwar. I don't like the T6 Scimitar skins, although kitbashing with all 6 can be fun.
Vestas are among my favorite ship models, alongside so many others, canon and Cryptic designs alike. I can't say they are the best since that would imply others are somehow lesser when they are just as good in their own unique way.

Well, there are some that I would call "lesser", if only in the aesthetics and creativity department. (Looking at you, APU Cruiser and Lukari N'kamm)
Lesser and Lukari Flying Saucer is a grave typo. It is the closest vessel to that piloted by our alien overlords and saviors, next to the Lukari triangular craft. We must beg for Vanu's forgiveness and to tirelessly proceed to enlighten the rest of the galaxy.

The tactical variant of the T6 Vesta was the first science ship I used on a tactical toon.
You have an excellent taste when it comes to virtual starships, dear sir or madam
Srsly though, both are highly subjective and don't have a right or wrong anwser.

You forgot to add the -X.
