Cool cars are a highly subjective topic I'm sure. But for me a cool car must be something interesting and different while not being too flashy or coming across as a rich show off. Something that people will let you out of junctions in and something that will make people smile should you turn up somewhere and offer them a ride in it.

And above all it has to be a car that someone has deliberately chosen to drive because it's different and because they like it, not because they care what others might think is trendy or whatever is the current flavour of the month is with the in click.

My nominations would be:

Citroën DS



Porsche 356



Mustang Convertible 1964-66

Volvo P1800 gets my vote. Or the similar-looking Karmann Ghia.



The fact they are slow cruisers but with such awesome great looks really does it for me.

I really don't like French cars but that Citroen is cool. If it was black then it would be uber cool, think the opening scenes of "Day of the Jackel"

I actually like these (espcially the M Coupe Z3), but I would also say they are prime candidates for the phrase "rich wker", "tosser", "city accountant" and highly likely to not be let out of a side turning in heavy traffic.
