The saddle tilt on all those bikes hurts my chode just looking at them. Other than that, the first 3 are hot, the next 3 are not. The last one is mild.

HOT
...Because you made it look good with updated components. Normally I dislike colored saddles and tape, but for some reason it looks okay here. Maybe because you stuck with mostly black parts.
Also, jumping on the bandwagon, 2002 Tecnos with 9 speed Record titanium group.

The skewers are DT Swiss. They come with their Tricon Wheels. They don't swing out and in to open and close. Rather, you rotate the scewer lever to tighten or loosen. By pulling out on the lever, it releases and you can adjust the position without tightening or loosening. Takes a minute to get used to, but I like it. the weels are alson tubeless, although I am only running Conti GP 4000S at the moment. I think I will give the tubeless a try when racing season starts next year. sorry if I gave TMI.

Finally! A hot bike AND it's Ti! Well done. Really nice! I love the teal graphics contrast against the grey Ti.
I'm gonna break the rules (I can because its my thread. 
) and post a bike thats not mine. I found this when I was checking out Firefly bicycles. This, for me anyway, is one of the hottest bikes I've seen. It's more amazing because its a cross bike:
Check out the cable routing. It's Di2 btw:
The brake housing actually runs through a titanium tube welded inside the top tube.
The Di2 battery is housed in the seat post.
Probably my favorite thing about the frame is that the labels are all anodized on. Gorgeous:
More anodizing:
More pics and details here.

I was so worried I would disappoint once again. In the automotive world you take pictures at funky angles and it looks good. Apparently what's good for one doesn't translate to the other...

you are close to nice but not there
here is what you need to make it look "good":
road pedals
cut steerer
rotate bars down
slimmer saddle
sexier bottle cage(s)
hot will take a larger investment
here is what you need for hot:
all of the above
sexy deep and/or light wheels
it is an issue of scale
