you know, i often disagree with what people think about these kind of things but i feel like if you say anything other than sub zero for this car, you should be kicked off the forum.

Kelbyat07 · 10-10-2013, 02:45 AM

Just look how low that car is.

easily one of the coolest

Sonolin · 10-10-2013, 02:27 PM

This car is definitely sub-zero. Personally I find some of the picks for the "cool wall" lame but this one is definitely legendary.

If nobody has seen it check out this video of Chris Harris driving this (and an f50) I watched few weeks ago

Genuinely the only "not new" fezza i'd actually like to own. All the old 275's 250's even the GTO's, yes they are rare, and yes they are pretty, but none of them make me really want one. F40 yes, 458 yes, FF no, California no, F12 maybe.

Subzero for sure.

Who the hell voted Uncool? Or even Cool? They should be slapped.

It's pretty simple: if one thinks this isn't one of the freaking coolest cars evar, they just plain don't like cars. Octane isn't in their blood.

Joakim3 · 10-10-2013, 07:27 PM

I swear the people who voted "cool" and "uncool" have to be trolls.... it's simply no other way you can be on a SPORTS CAR FORUM and vote that for an F40 out of all cars

.... it's sacrilege

dem00n · 10-10-2013, 08:18 PM

I wanna say Sub zero, but the car has taken a bit of a cult turn. Women don't like cults.

Cool, but most likely one of the best drives of your life.

Fast, fun, and technologically impressive does not equal "Cool Car".

Would I do unspeakable things to drive one on a track for a day? Absolutely.

Would I show off on a date/in public/at a party/at work with it? Shoot me first. It's not something I would be terribly proud of in the driveway.

Great car is not synonymous with "sub-zero" or "cool"

Of course not.... which is why I'd never vote an 458, R35, 997 Turbo or really any other of today's standard selection of super-cars SS. There all great but they just lack that "something" I've seen just about every super car in life.. and NONE of them really "did" anything for me. It was just a "oooo look, it's a Veyron".... *moves forward with his day*

This, this is different. This is genesis, this is Nirvana. When you see an F40... you know, even if you don't know why... that theres something different, something special about it...

.... and that cannot be any cooler
