Coolest car you've ever owned

[Icy Gull]

Following on from the 1st car you ever had.....

Complete rust bucket but what could be cooler than the car that became a legend because of Dustin Hoffman in the Graduate

Evo 6

I had one of these and I don't think any of the rather bigger cars I had in the US would be considered cool although one was faster.

1962 Cadillac Coupe De Ville. Mine was long and dark, shiny and black, but it was basically the same model as this;

A VW Beetle Karman Cabriolet a little bit like the one below. I'm not sure I have any pictures of mine actually, which is a little bit sad.

Had what was basically a Porsche engine in the back so went like anything and some decent Alpine sounds inside. Absolute Summertime bliss...

You probably have a normal everyday life, but cannot imagine that some people do not have a life the same as yours.

To answer your question, no, I hung around with Zulus, and they needed room for their spears.

WTF ?

It's all about the sound system for me...

 

[NMH]

WTF ?

Ho hum.

Here's a car I couldn't afford to buy outright for cash, and the finance co. charged way too much interest. I was test-driving it and people actually stopped to wave! (it was an eggshell yellow, this shiny red is TOO ostentatious darling) 1948 Pontiac convertible.
Imagine the big stars that would have all clung to my aura as I lived the life of a poseur riding down Sunset Blvd!

One needs to be a proper star to carry that off.... or maybe just love to own a brilliant ride? In England it would get 'keyed' within a day. In Cuba however, they curse the fact that these heaps are all they can own, since imports have been banned by their capitolist enemy USA. They have been known to turn them into boats, to escape the island.

This one...

All right, so it was only two inches long, but the doors opened AND the wheels went round and everything...

There were several that looked just like that one, passing me down the London Rd yesterday!
I believe I saw the Arkansas Chuggabug, and Dick Dastardly and Muttley were in there somewhere as well.

Anyone here watch the crocks?

 

[JJ McClure]

I had one of these

You seem to be confusing cool with chavy
