Well, what is the coolest car you have seen in person? Me, a Ferarri F50 or a Lamborghini Diablo. Although this car is not near as expensive or as high perfromance as th other two, I still think it is a close one...Toyota Supra. :drool:
 
I've seen a lot of exotics here in Vegas:
-Lambo Diablo
-Porsche 911 Carrera and Turbo
-Z8
-R33 and R34 Skyline GT-R
-Lotus Elise
-Porsche 959
-etc.

But the most coolest I've seen is a Jaguar XJ220.

The only cool cars I look at are of course, Cobras :D ;) I have seen a lot of replicas, I wonder if there is any originals here in NZ doubt it though.
 
I've seen (And heard)...

TVR Cerbera 4.5 V8
TVR Chimera (Convertible TVR)
Lotus Esprit
Lotus Exige
Aston Martin DB7 Vantage
Mini converted to a pick up with a huge model of a Red Bull can.
 
I've also seen a Suzuki X90 and a converted Vitara (into a pickup) with a Red Bull can on its back.

I hate the replicas, I'll settle with the original even if it costs more and the head office and factory of Shelby American is in here in Las Vegas.
I wish I'm wealthy enough to collect all three (427 S/C CSX4000; 289 FIA; and the Series 1)
 
Ford GT40.
Ferrari F40 GT1 Road Car.
Alot of Z8s
Skyline R33.
Alot of Lambos.
Alot of 355 Challenge cars (like 25 or something)
Ferrari 333P Lemans car.
Plenty of other cars that I don't feel like listing.
 
Actually, thinking about it, at the Albert Park historic meeting in 1994 I saw an XJ220, an XJR-15,an F40 and a Porsche 959 all running nose to tail at fairly close to race speed around the 'old' Albert Park (before they cleaned it up).
 
The coolest car ive seen in person is a ferrari F50 I heard this ROOOOOOOOOORORORO about a block or two away and when it finaly got to me it was an awsome F50 red.
 
The coolest car I've ever seen? The F2001 at the USGP! This McLaren F1 is probably the coolest road-going car I've come in contact with, however. :eek:

I had never seen one, either, and I was simply floored when I saw the two gulf-wing doors above the crowd! It is an absolutely incredible thing to see! :eek:
 
Jag XJ220 was the coolest i've seen, 911 Turbo (993 model) the coolest i drove!
 
Coolest I have seen would be a 1962 Ford Boss Mustang 302, it was quite similar to this one....
When it idles it sounds amazing, but when he stepped on the gas :eek:
I just sat at the intersection in my Viper with my mouth open watching him go down the road a bit....
Cant beat the sound of old American muscle.
 
Eeesh! The coolest? Of all of them? I guess the top of the list would have to be the McLaren F1 (of course, I wasn't much of a car nut back then). Still, I've pretty much seen the gamut of hot cars -- new and old -- listed on supercars.net. Well, everything sold in the US, at least. The only cool car I saw overseas was the F1. Of all the cars to see.... It's a wonder I wasn't into cars earlier. Lamborghinis, Testarossas, DeLoreans, Astons, AMG/MPower, classic American muscle, even my favorite the 959. And none of it struck me as truly cool. What a dork I was back then. :D

Rumple, you drive good 'ol american muscle, but I agree you cant beat the sound of a big-block V8 (thats why I want a cobra 427ci -mmmmm juicy).

I've been to a hell of a lot of car shows (even though Im only 15) and I've seen heaps of the above cars, GT40's, F40's, McF1's, although thinkin about it I havnt seen a TVR :confused: , and PLENTY old cars of the ford -vs- chevy era. But the only car that sticks out at any car show for me is a Cobra.
 
i know i drive american muscle...
i was just saying that to me not even my viper competes with that mustang when it comes to sound
i would love to have that mustang
 
I saw an 87(?) Lamborghini Countach at World Of Wheels last year.......:drool: There was also a totally custom '59 Cadillac there........:bigeye: That car's incredible.:P I saw a Mustang SVT Cobra R a while back.......that was pretty cool.;)
 
It's probably easier to list cars I haven't seen that I'd like to:
Ferrari F50, Enzo
Aston Vanquish.

Err, that's about it. Saw my first Murcielago yesterday, and I have to say that it's the most incredible 4-wheeled thing I've ever seen. I have to have one, and right now isn't soon enough.
