The 2D F-Zero games never caught much of my interest, but I can see why the SNES version is so highly regarded; great soundtrack and groundbreaking gameplay.
F-Zero X had the best music, but was heavily limited by the hardware. The gameplay feels relatively slow and dull after playing the more recent entry:
F-Zero GX had by far the most exciting gameplay (better than any racer I've ever played), best visuals and best course design. And the massive learning curve with each vehicle added tons of replayability. The story mode and custom vehicles were nothing special, but is easily overlooked by the core modes and gameplay. (I still can't think of a more satisfactory feat than taking out your opponents in splitscreen mode, only to race to the finish line by yourself.)
GX gets my vote.
