@Joakim3, any chance you could post up to here when you make a new Cool Wall Thread, or at least mention it in your "Reason for editing?" I've missed quite a few I would have liked to weigh in on.

Yeah I'll probably do that on the initial thread page

Something along the lines of "Current cars being voted on - end/start - date etc.."

Blame it on the voters

At least be happy when the R34 or R32 get polled, at worst the former will go into it's own fridge section, and the latter will be subzero as well

I think the voting system is a bit flawed. Take the Mustang (S197) for example:

Sub-zero: 1
Cool: 15
Uncool: 14
Seriously Uncool: 14

Your final result shows the Mustang as "Cool", with only 33% of the votes. Roughly 66% of the votes are in the "uncool" territory. So, why would the Mustang be "Cool"?

I think you need to do more of an average, which would make the Mustang "Uncool"...bordering on "Seriously Uncool".

Just some food for thought...
