Default Coolest car ?

One car (per post) that sums up all that is cool in motoring, I don't meant those who think they are cool who miss the point by 100 miles like Mini and TT owners but cars that make you wish you were in the driving seat. Not always exotiv but exotics allowd, just pure cool, sub zero end of the Top Gear cool wall. Cool with no 'buts', like a

Some examples

Jenson Interceptor
Capri Mk1, 3000E, RS2600, RS 3100
MK Golf GTI, original, no mods
Coralla Twin Cam
Escort RS200 (RS1800 even cooler)
Original Sierra Cosworth
AC Cobra, original, replica, whatever (as long as V8)


Go on !

Aston DB5 'cos it is the coolest by far.

Volvo P500 in sky blue, personally cool.

I think an Ariel Atom would be both the coolest and coldest of all modern cars

69 Dodge Charger
Plymouth Superbird
Hemi Cuda.

If you don't know what they look like or are.... look 'em up on Google...! ;o)
These cars are beasts from a bygone age that ran 12/13sec quater miles out of the showroom. Sometimes I think automotive technology has gone backwards..!
