Sub Zero'd before noticing how much it looks like the precursor to the Cobra (hardtop). Far more elegant from the windscreen back though.


The AC Ace, the real precursor to the Cobra, came out a year before this. So maybe this was influenced by the Ace?

More likely influenced by the spider-bodied A6GCS which was also built in 1953. Although the front grill on that did look more AC Ace than Cobra, while the gaunt front end shape on the Berlinetta has more in common with a Cobra than an Ace.
 
The lower part of Sub-Zero. It's a beautiful car no doubt and it would turn heads. The only problem I have is that the roof could be higher. Though, I just don't think that's enough to lower down the vote to cool.
 
The front kind of reminds me of this...

Overall the styling just doesn't do anything for me.
Still it looks like it would be an absolute blast to drive so I'll give it a low Cool.
 
Glad it got SZ, pity I missed the vote, nice blue too. I love how low the roof is, and how much the tyre and wheels occupy that gap in the body work, its just a well designed car.
