https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/gtp-cool-wall-1999-2002-pagani-zonda-c12-6-0.330071/"All projects become intriguing the very moment they cease to be so to turn into reality”.
1999 - 2002 Pagani Zonda C12 6.0
Source.
Born from the passion of a little boy, the Zonda C12 is the first Pagani supercar to be constructed at the atelier of San Cesario sul Panaro.
The bodywork, inspired to the Silver arrows of the Mercedes C group, encloses the essence of an unmistakable wind, where art and science beautifully combine to create a unique symphony, fascinating and bewildering at the same time.
And like a passionate lover, the melodious performance arises from the engine and gradually grows to a fascinating and vertiginous crescendo until blazing bright blue flames come spurting out from the 4–stroke exhaust system.
Production Year: 1999 - 2002
Body Style: 2-door berlinetta.
Price: $280,000.
Engine: 6 liter, Mercedes AMG V12.
Power Output: 389 Horsepower.
Torque: 420 lb ft.
Top speed: 185 MPH (298 KM/H)
0-60: 4.2 seconds.
Transmission: 6-speed manual.
Length: 4,345 mm (171.1 in)
Width: 1,933 mm (76.1 in)
Height: 1,151 mm (45.3 in)
Weight: 1350 kg
Drivetrain: Rear mid-Engined, rear Wheel Drive.
My Take On This: The original Zonda that was destined a Seriously Uncool in the real Cool Wall, thanks to the genuine love of one 'bumbling idiot' Richard Hammond. But this is the GTPlanet Cool Wall: this is the big time. Where will the first and original Zonda end up this time?
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/gtp-cool-wall-1975-1996-jaguar-xjs.330072/1975-1996 Jaguar XJS
Body Style: 2-door grand tourer
Engines: 5.3L V12 (1975-96), 3.6L I6 (1984-90), 4.0L I6 (1990-96), 6.0L V12 (1990-96)
Power: 282hp (5.3L V12), 221hp (3.6L I6), 245hp (4.0L I6), 318hp (6.0L V12)
Torque: 300lbs/ft (5.3L V12), 240lbs/ft (3.6L I6), 289lbs/ft (4.0L I6), 353lbs/ft (6.0L V12)
Weight: 1,770kg / 3,883lbs - 1,824kg / 4,022lbs
Transmission: 5-speed manual, 4-speed automatic
Drivetrain: Front engine, rear wheel drive
Notes: Initially known as the XJ-S before the name was restyled in 1990, this is a classic example of beautiful British design and engineering; something which may very well work against it in polling. Commercially available as a hardtop, targa or convertible, the car was renowned for its big V12 engines and ultimate driving comfort. It was very successful in touring car racing and had a total production run of 21 years, with the slightly less beautiful facelift arriving in 1990.
Rare models include an estate with coachwork by Lynx, a super sports cabriolet and the one-off prototype Daimler badged model.

Production Year: 2011 - present.
Body Style: 2-door coupe.
Price: ÂŁ300,000
Engine: 4.4 liter, twin-turbo Yamaha-derived Volvo V8
Power Output: 450 (Road setting), 550 (Track setting), 650 (Race setting) Horsepower
Torque: 604 lb ft
Top speed: Estimated at 225 MPH (362 KM/H)
0-60: 3 seconds
Transmission: Graziano 6-speed manual
Length: 4,360 mm (172 in)
Width: 1910 mm (75 in)
Height: 1,140 mm (45 in)
Weight: 1198 kg
Tires: Michelin Pilot Sport (Front: 255/30-19, Rear:335/30-20)
Drivetrain: Mid engined, longitudinal, rear wheel drive.
Additional Information/My Take On This:
Like some cars today, I conclude that this car is daring and unafraid, and keeps insisting the term "freedom".
Noble gives it a motto with one of Gandhi's quotes "I want the freedom for the full expression of my personality"
Has a vivid choice of colors, if you're not into bespoke (which it offers).
Has no ABS. Unlike the majority of it's supercar species today, the car isn't fully carbon fiber.
And like many British icons: is handbuilt.
There's so much riling up for debate towards a car like this. Also: WHY ISN'T THERE A NOBLE IN THE COOL WALL YET?!

Well, the stuff you see on the nomination came from the online brochure on their website, so I didn't actually write any of that down; just copied it.
But I respect your opinion, and might consider getting rid of the promotion stuff (the header and the paragraph?).

Yes. In my view the nominations should include the name of the car and a picture of it and nothing more, but I know that's unreasonable. Calling for neutrality, however, is more than reasonable.

Ok full post (it isn't there)
2011 Alfa Romeo Disco Volante
The Alfa Romeo Disco Volante by Touring is a two-seater coupé with front-central engine and transaxle drivetrain. Showcased at 2012 Geneva Motor Show as a full scale style model, now is coach built in the Touring atelier in Milan as a very limited series for discerning customers: collectors, sporting drivers and design aficionados with appreciation for a tailor-made car based on individual passion and taste. It is inspired by the Touring designed Alfa Romeo C52 of 1952: a design icon, so innovative that it influenced a number of celebrated sports cars of the decades ahead.
The excellent Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione supplies the rolling chassis and drivetrain with the electrics and electronics systems. With its light and stiff structure, the compact 4.7 litre, 450 PS V8 engine coupled to a sequential paddle-shift transaxle gearbox, the limited slip differential and double wishbones suspension, the package provides stunning performance together with precise, dynamic and proactive drive.
The design language is that of a sports berlinetta by Touring, in this case extrovert, clearly pronounced, and tempting. The refined proportions are those of a classic Berlinetta by Touring, with extended rear overhang and a retracted greenhouse. Elements of drama are the wide front section with integrated bonnet and wings, and the pronounced muscular rear end treatment leaving no doubts about the car’s intentions.
The final result combines power and elegance in a car bound to set another Touring milestone in the automobile history.

That comment is redundant, due to the fact I did. It is coach built and there were several produced. (at least three, one normal, one with ugly green paint, and an open-top, as well as a silver one that I think was mentioned on top gear but I can't be sure about)

It is inspired by the Touring designed Alfa Romeo C52 of 1952: a design icon, so innovative that it influenced a number of celebrated sports cars of the decades ahead.
The excellent Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione supplies the rolling chassis and drivetrain with the electrics and electronics systems. With its light and stiff structure, the compact 4.7 litre, 450 PS V8 engine coupled to a sequential paddle-shift transaxle gearbox, the limited slip differential and double wishbones suspension, the package provides stunning performance together with precise, dynamic and proactive drive.
The design language is that of a sports berlinetta by Touring, in this case extrovert, clearly pronounced, and tempting. The refined proportions are those of a classic Berlinetta by Touring, with extended rear overhang and a retracted greenhouse. Elements of drama are the wide front section with integrated bonnet and wings, and the pronounced muscular rear end treatment leaving no doubts about the car’s intentions.
The final result combines power and elegance in a car bound to set another Touring milestone in the automobile history.
