I don't follow any series, so I have no idea if the car was any good, but it is one of my favorite race car designs, if not the favorite. Beautiful car.
 
I'm sooooo seriously uncool...















Wait...there's actually 4 cool and 5 sub zero votes? Hmmmmmm....
 
This thing is just too amazing to give it anything lower than a cool.
 
I remember grinding countless hours doing that final license test in GT3 using this car. But in the end, its a legendary race car that I think looks a lot better than some of the LMPs today.

Sub-Zero
 
Seriously Uncool because unsuccessful race car.
 
Sure, right, yeah, just, yeah, put the luggage in the fuel tank, that'll work, yeah.
 
SUBRC
 
Toyota's second loophole-hunt racer of the 90's. Even resorting to all manner of tricks didn't secure them a win.

SUBURC.
 
My fifth favorite Le Mans racer.

1. Mazda 787B
2. Nissan R390 GT1
3. Peugeot 905
4. Audi R8
5. Toyota GT-One
 
This car was a failure in my eyes and a lot of people as well do to it not winning anything at all. Meh.
 
One of the best-looking LMP cars out there. Just look at that amazing, flowing bodywork.

...However, even with refinements for 3 years straight, Toyota still didn't manage to secure a win at Le Mans.

Low Cool for me.
