He was not based on any specific model, he was invented based on the designs of many other vehicles. He is simply a 'race car'.

Lightning McQueen is an anthropomorphic racecar. Meaning "ascribing human characteristics to nonhuman things". Lightning is no particular model car, but has elements of many sports cars. His headlights are just stickers and he has many sponsor decals on his sides, both similarities to NASCAR cars. Pixar was shown a Corvette by GM, which influenced his design. His overall profile was inspired by the Ford GT40. His tail resembles that of a Dodge Viper, while the tail lenses and roof are consistent with a Ford Mustang. The full size tour car is based on a Pontiac Firebird. His custom two-tone paint and tires are from a 50s Chevrolet Corvette. Overall, his appearance is a hybrid between a stock car and various other sports cars, but tilted slightly towards the stock car style. He can be considered an overall generic race car.

Lightning McQueen is a race car that races for a piston cup. It is not a real car and is not designed from a real car. The only car where you see some design influences present on McQueen is the Chevy Corvette. But Lightning is not a Corvette. He is no one car at all.
