Is your car on the cool wall?
Do you agree with the cool wall rating?
Do you think your car is cool (by cool wall standards)?

Feel free to discuss how cool or uncool your car is and elaborate on why you love your uncool car or how you hate your sub-zero scrap box (or whatever mix or feelings you might have about what you drive).

:D
 
I think my pickup is cool. And the Daihatsu is awesome and funny.

What anyone else thinks about them, I could not care one tiny 🤬 what so ever.

Yep super cool. I always get compliments when I am in traffic and at the gas station.

My car was not but there was a version on the Cool wall. 95 Cobra R. (my car is a 95 Cobra but not the R version)

Mine isn't in the list and it's probably super uncool. But I kinda like it that way. :p
 
I have yet to put mine on the cool wall. Simply because it's highly modded.
 
Is your car on the cool wall?: No.

Do you agree with the cool wall rating?: N/A

Do you think your car is cool (by cool wall standards)?: Probably not. The stereotypical owner is either a pimp or an old person, neither of which are cool. If you don't vote by stereotypes, then it could possibly creep into cool territory, but I wouldn't see very many people (besides the usual Ford and American car fans) voting for cool on it. I'd love to be proven wrong, though. :D

Do you think your car is cool (by your own standards)?: Extremely. My standards of a car's coolness is very broad. I like everything from Beetles to Continentals to Ferraris, and unlike some people, I believe liking a car and the coolness of it are related.
 
The 1964-1966 Mustang before mine got Sub Zero on the Cool Wall. I think that a simple, understated Mustang that stays vaguely true to the original design and avoids super fat tires, loud exhaust and big wheels is a cool car.

My car specifically? My car rolls on 17" wheels with spin-ons that look like the love-child of cowboy spurs and a scythed chariot. It has an aggressive stance, white war-paint stripes, a Shelby-style bumper that looks like it's screaming at you (bearing its aluminum radiator like teeth), and announces its presence with dual exhaust complete with chrome tips the size of grapefruits. It's aggressive personality is further complimented by the... erm... flamboyant driving that... somebody who drives it... partake in.

So yeah, it's pretty uncool. Maybe even Seriously Uncool. Aggressiveness in cars tends to be tool-tastic. This is no exception.

Damn though, writing all about how uncool my car is really makes me want to go drive it.
 
2003 Corolla.
  • Hasn't been on the cool wall.
  • It's not cool.
  • I don't think it's cool.
  • I would agree if the cool wall rated it Uncool or Seriously Uncool.
 
Is my everyday driver cool and or on the cool wall? No. It's not seriously uncool, it's just meh. I like it, it's done a heck of a lot of work over the past four years, as a throaty V8 and doesn't look too bad to boot. But it isn't cool - 1999 Dodge Durango 318ci V8.
 
My car is popular with old men and lesbians (no, not those sorts of lesbians. Proper short hair/sensible shoes lesbians) So no, and that's fine by me.

I don't care. If I cared about cool on any level at all I wouldn't be sat at my computer of a night in my pants.
 
Techincally my car is my mom's car, I do not use it. Does it count? (If not, just delete message for me, thank you.)

1. Well, no.

2. I...guess? Maybe not.

3. Pfft. Not a damn bit.

4. I don't really care much if I think it's cool. It's pretty much an average car, but gets the job done.
 
2006 BMW 530i

Wall: no.

For all the people I know (high schoolers) it's pretty cool. There are only a few other cars that can complete which are mostly lifted trucks and mustangs, but that's all personal opinion. Over all while it may have some problems I think it's cool. At least in my situation as well the body and styling should keep it cool at least for a while.
 
Is your car on the cool wall? Variants of it are but, no.

Do you think your car is cool (by cool wall standards)? No, because of Europeans who hate pickups. If only Americans voted, maybe.
Do you think your car is cool (by your own standards)? Yes, very.

Anyway, I could be wrong about the cool wall standard- I've listed my truck in the "Car Reviews" thread, if anyone would like to critique it.

3/4. Any/All Subaru are cool right?! :)

I sure think so :D

...But some people in the ''Cool Wall'' worry about who drives them and here all the d-bags, hoolingans and drug dealers or how we call them here ''flaites'' have subaru's so that would make them s.uncool

:rolleyes:

:lol::lol::lol: I love you dude. Also you forgot about the guys that must pester you about having Shelby-style tail-lamps and lettering on a coupe and such stuff. Pure uncool magnet.
 
My car is dead.

Like James Dean
Like Steve McQueen
Like Mister Clean

Can't get any cooler than that.

-

But seriously: No. Maybe. Maybe. Yes.

If it were the truck: No. Yes (because I know what it'll get). No. No.

My favourite part is that when you call a spade a spade in other threads people jump on you for daring to besmirch the name of the Mustang.

Do you agree with the cool wall rating? not quite, most enthusiast find it cool but most other people will fin it meh
Do you think your car is cool (by cool wall standards)? Don't really understand what this means but I guess it was overrated when it got judged just like it's a little overrated everywhere online, it's not THAT great to drive through the corners
Do you think your car is cool (by your own standards)? I don't really know nor do I care much, I just like my car a lot because of (almost) every other reason
 
Is your car on the cool wall?
No

Do you think your car is cool (by cool wall standards)?
Why would I think a lunch box (2007 Honda Element) is cool by the cool wall standards.

Do you think your car is cool (by your own standards)?
🤬 Yes. It's a lunch box for crying out loud.
 
@edawg456 I think elements are really cool, you don't see many around and they are very underrated for how practical they are. I'd rather have one of those instead of the newer equivalent vehicles (except maybe the cube)
 
Is your car on the cool wall?
No, it isn't. If it were, it'd be the ST205 model, not the ST204 I have. Because there were cooler things outside North America.​
Do you agree with the cool wall rating?
Well, if there was one, who the hell really knows. If we did an ST205, I'd expect a solid cool. That's nice. An ST204? NOPE.​
Do you think your car is cool (by cool wall standards)?
Eh. See above. Its the midget Camry Coupe. With a Camry engine. And transmission. And brakes. And almost everything else. But hey, it's the best-looking Celica they did. But also the heaviest. And slowest. And that sucks. So, it would probably be uncool. But kids think I drive a Supra sometimes. So that makes me feel better.​
Do you think your car is cool (by your own standards)?
I like it. That's all that matters. Its cooler than my friends Eclipse. Also, cooler than my friends GTI. So, relatively cool. But, definitely not as cool as my brother's '78 Bonneville. Crap...​
 
2007 Volvo S80 3.2, ice white over tan.

1. Hasn't been polled yet, but is nominated.
2. N/A
3. See 2
4. Yes. I used to have an '01 S60 with absolutely nothing on it in terms of options. Cloth interior, no power seats, no keyless, etc., but it had an aftermarket Alpine deck. Upgrading to this S80 was a mighty leap. The car is more modern compared to the S60 they made in 2007. It's bigger. It has more standard equipment. It has the optional chrome rims. It has the optional heated/cooled seats. It has AUX input for my iPhone. It has more power. It's overall more comfortable and better to drive than my S60. But, it is not the overall best car I have driven. That title goes to a fully loaded 2014 Chrysler 300C I had for two weeks last fall while my S60 was getting body work done to it. For now, the S80 is the second best. The only downside to the S80 is that it's slightly worse on gas mileage compared to my S60.
 
Waiting for 1989-1998 Mazda MX-5 to get polled. That's borderline cool looking at opinions about it. Mine's a 94' with revolving headdies.

And i seriously doubt anyone would vote my 320d at cool because BMW. Although, TopGear did use a 330d of the same generation to run a 24hr race.

To me, cool isn't important, but the Bimmer gets a meh, while the Miata is Sub-Zero.

Yes, unfortunately.

No.

Probably not. An economy car built for A-to-B driving, but with the twin GTP-offenders of a low-rent interior and a relatively larger, low-specific-output engine.

Do you think your car is cool (by your own standards)?

Not really, but (despite what the GTP CW people think) it's still one of the coolest economy cars around because 1. displacement, 2. torque, and 3. reverse snob appeal.
