    Anything with TWICE the power to weight ratio than a Bugatti Veyron, is cool in my eyes.

    Wouldn't be half as cool if Peugeot had fitted sunvisors at 3:27 :D

    If you look through the comments you'll find an arument i had about looks VS downforce.
    I was on the DF side of things.
    I'd rather have a massive wing than be dead. :pac:

    Its partly because of the wing that makes it so cool! The Suzuki Pikes Peak was the ultimate car in Gran Turismo! What size engines are in them things?!

    A 2L with 4 turbos, or so i've been told.
    4 of them seems a bit mad like, but hell, what's not mad about rally?

    Yes, and it can't handle corners at a normal speed, so even my '97 Fiesta could overtake it on a normal road...it gives the rest of us mortals hope...very cool :cool:

    Only cool if you don't replace the engine with one from a Porsche and have an enormous tongue....

    Soooooooooooooooooo seriously uncool. Never gets driven, lives it whole life in a garage. You don't lie on your death bed thinking "If only I had spent more time locked in my house and never did anything". Sorry mate, it's a gorgeous car and probably excellent to drive but it's not cool.

    You need to stop pretending your on Top Gear. That is one of the coolest cars going but in fairness you do seem to have an obsession with diesel CLS' so I'll let your opinion slip.

    How could an Enzo be anything other than cool? That and the Carrera GT, if I drive both I'll die happy!!!

    Ah the ZR1 has potential.
    It's one of the only good modern American cars every built and it looks sweet. AND 600+bhp is always cool.

    The cossie is cool for what it is too, the massive wing use to put my off, but you learn to love it.

    I think people are getting what the idea of cool is, I think Clarkson (even though he is a complete tool) may have hit the nail on the head for once when he described the cool wall.

    If you picked up some classy women in a Escort RS/Skyline do you think she would be impressed? Coolness has nothing to do with how many ponies are under the bonnet or how much downforce its 10 wings can produce.


    Hmm... You using your car to compensate for something?

    Coolness, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. Any one using a car to impress women/men is just sad in my opinion.
    A car being a great drivers car makes it cool in my books. Regardless of its looks or what others think.

    Good point that Clarkson makes and i hate admitting myself too, but is this the Top Gear cool wall or the oards cool wall.

    When i think cool i don't think "oh if a 'classy' lady was getting into this car would she be impressed", i think more like "that car will make me sh*t my pants"...

    Well I drive a Punto so thats a big no on that onesmile.gif As for your reason on why a car is cool, alot of really cool cars dont drive particularly well. Pretty much all american muscle cars handle like boats!
    Yes - but they do make you sh*t your pants! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,538 ✭✭✭niceirishfella


    All YES!


    LOL.......HashSlinging, I respect you an stuff, but NO.

    New Minis aint cool because only slightly over weight estate agents drive them

    I would like to take exception to this... Not ALL minis are driven by overweight estate agents, mine for example:

    Cooper S JCW. A bit cool, I think anyway...

    Ok so maybe mines only slightly cool, but this is very cool:
