100 Coolest Cars...
 

From Automobile magazine. Two Zs made it, the Z32TT (#99) and the 240Z (#55).

The VW Bus came in at #100! FTW!!!:icon_super:

Heres the complete list:

the TT is always winning stuff like that, glad to see a S30 do some justice though.

The 240z & 300zxtt were also in the SportCompact top 100 a couple years ago:

.....and some nice words for the Tree Fiddy also :038:

I was surprised at some of the autos left off the Automobile mag. list: No Supra or RX-7 or NSX. And where's the Pantera?? :021:

NSX usually makes it, i hardly ever see supra or RX-7 in there though, never a pantera.

interesting
 

not sure what qualifies a car as "coolest" but you do have to wonder if whenever you leave a car parked in one place long enough someone leaves a note on the windshield asking if you "are interested in selling this car" makes it cool, then the Z32 should be higher on that list!

That list was weak. Citroen had 3 cars. No NSX Z32 #99. Hell a vw bug and a miata were in the 70's. I will never buy that magazine.

the miata is a pretty amazing car, it may not have alot of balls, but its one of teh best handling cars out of the factory, they are VERY well balanced, the VW bus though is kinda weak, and there were a coupe OK citroen's.

fully agree. the GT5-S is one of my all time favorites, and one of these days, i will buy one.

no you wont ^^^ lol

i'll have one before you get a Z32TT :D.

I would bet good money on that too :D


Snwy = PanteraPwnd

Rod.

i wouldnt, unless he is going to build his pantera. buying one isnt cheap nore is it in any way easy to find one for sale.

i have no problem going out of state to get one. i know of a few good places to get them. and they are not terribly expensive. i could get a mild restoration project for well under $20k.

Stingray #1 porka 911 #2? Who are these morons?

I agree! While 911s and old Vettes are definitely cool cars.....NO WAY they are cooler than Ferraris, Lambos....or the aforementioned Pantera.

at least a De Tomaso made the list. the Mangusta was a nice car, and the predecessor to the Pantera, but i still prefer the Pantera.

And where the heck is the Alfa 33 Stradale??? first production car with Dihedral Doors. 10,000 rpm 2.0l V8, fuel injected, 2 plugs per cyilnder, 270hp. and all this in 1967. and lets not forget it is one of the sexiest cars ever made. WTF??

tell me that's not cooler than a Stingray.

Gullwing doors?!??! Yummah!

That list was in an issue last year. The current issue has the 25 most beutifull cars ever broken down to 5 cars in 5 categories. Off the top of my head I think they listed the top 5 drivers cars as E30 M3, Ferrari F430, Lotus Elan, 1st gen VW GTi?, don't remember the last one.

edit: yes, I want a Pantera too.

hmmm, any one else see the resemblance to and ultima GTR ??? or is it just me?

just you. the Alfa looks WAY better.

no it doesnt. ultima GTR FTW
