This poll is going to be interesting. Gonna have a lot of people on the "uncool" side because Ferrari, though. Personally, I'm going to vote Sub Zero. Beautiful car is beautiful.

I don't recall anyone voting a Ferrari uncool simply because of its marque, either.

Can we please try to leave discussion of the nominations for when the threads come up. Otherwise this thread gets clogged up and it makes things harder for @White & Nerdy.

LaFerrari is the only Ferrari example polled where I can understand that sort of sentiment. Otherwise it's just a case of "supercar = uncool" as opposed to Ferrari in particular.
I just thought it was slightly odd that someone expects a far-from-modern Ferrari produced 45 years ago to get a boatload of uncool votes just because it's a Ferrari (underneath at least). Though I expect it to get plenty because it's technically a concept.

There will be three posts tomorrow to catch up. Then, if he's willing, I may allow @Jahgee1124 to take over for a week after that. Depending on how I'm feeling afterwards, I may not take it back.

I'm leaving town the 3rd and I'm not gonna be back until the 21st, so if you leave it to me, someone will have to post nominations during that time.
But after that I can do it

So when I take this over from @White & Nerdy , I'll be doing 2 nominations a day up until the 1st to try and decrease the logjam that is the nominations queue, after that @Azure Flare or whomever else would like to do it can take it over until I return from my vacation around the 20th. Unless White & Nerdy wants to take it back at any point, in which case it is his.
If White & Nerdy does permanently stop, my first plan is to introduce daily nominations and a uniform request template

Sorry for the missing third post last night. The site seems to have decided it was done cooperating, as it was loading stuff wrong and taking ages to do it.

Go ahead. Not sure if I was ready yet, but you can definitely do that one as it seems GTP is still goofing up for me.

I hate to do this, but for now nominations are closed until @White & Nerdy returns to take over, or July 24th, whichever comes first.
The last two nominations will be allowed, after that though there will be none

Which ones are customs? Haven't been paying attention to nominations lately.
Also, I think you have some inkling where the Pinto is going to go.

Technically a coachbuild, assuming the mechanicals haven't actually been changed.
