**** you, an evo better than a subaru ..I..
Hang on, how is "cool" determined?

The Kristin Scott-Thomas standard?
The Fiona Bruce Standard?
The TristianCliffe standard? (God help us...:razz

Or is it something else? By Top Gear standards, that Porsche and that EVO would be uncool. Only mouth breathing car dorks like us like those cars. Same with the X Bow. Only engineers and petrolheads would think that is cool.

In the LFS world by Top Gear standards, the XFG, UF1, XRG would be cool cars. The XRT would be seriously uncool. Any one seater or race versions would be off the scales uncool.

So again, who is going to set the standard?
Quote from chanoman315 :**** you, an evo better than a subaru ..I..

You're right; the Evo IS a better car to drive....
...if you're a mediocre driver with no talent. That is why automotive journalists so like them.

Quote from squidhead :Seriously Cool

a COCK MOBILE (I have never seen an Aston without a 50+ year old businessman in it driving 15kph not to damage the car and giving everyone around him "the OH YEAH, Im COOL" Look)

I'm not sure if that's quite the definition of Cockmobile they intended on Top Gear. Footballers are cocks. Movie Stars are cocks. Both buy Astons.

A businessman (but not all), keen to look after his pride and joy bought using money he earnt isn't really a cock (until he cuts you up!). What you are describing there is envy. Footballers, who've earnt enough money by doing nothing, and have brains that make dinosaurs look well endowed (brain-wise [no pun intended]), and violate every speed limit they come across are cocks. Plain and simple. No exceptions.

Sorry Kev but Chinos and Tank Tops just ain't cool anymore.

Anyway, we need a special Mazz fridge for this.

And an ever so slightly less cool fridge for this

Without a shadow of doubt THE coolest cars on the planet right now.

Also, if this is the LFS Cool Wall, how about putting the LFS cars on it.
Quote from mutt107 :the RS5 looks hawt :P

It certainly is a nice car even the A5 looks nice, my dad wants now since he saw a RS5 on the motorway as he didn't believe me that they done a A5 and a RS5
oh well looks like the picture of the robin reliant broke.
I killed it. Muhahahaha

More updates later. Time for school.
Quote from tristancliffe :What you are describing there is envy.

No, I am not.
1. I don't like Astons except the old ones.
2. I really don't see how "showing off" in a supercar makes you "not a cock"

There's a guy in a Maseratti Quattroporte however who lives a few block away from me - he treats his car like an ordinary car, he just drives it, fast sometimes. And that is how people SHOULD behave in a supercar - they should just drive them properly. But when an 50+ aston owner drives up to a cafe, gets out and orders a "martini, shaken, not stirred" while looking at the people in the cafe like "oh yeah, I'm cool as James Bond" It only looks like a pathetic attempt to look cool while he, himself, knows he is not.

As I understand - being a cock is measured on how you use the car, and what you have bought it for.


P.S: the cool wall is still wrong. Why is M3 sub zero and why is Reliant robin cool? Get a blind date with a girl and turn up in a Reliant.
There is a small collective of people who can pull off the Plastic Pig and not look like a complete and utter spanner.

One ugly car but wouldn't mind owning one, Bugatti Veyron:
http://blog.tmcnet.com/blog/ri ... ds/bugatti-veyron-big.jpg

Audi RS6 is sub-zero
Audi RS5 is uncool
Audi R8 is cool because it's the first supercar that doesn't has the drawbacks of a normal supercar
Hamman M5 and M3 are seriously uncool because they try to hard
SLR 722 is uncool, it's an average supercar
Bugatti Veyron ( I don't like it, you could buy a car at a third of it's price that is faster) is sub-zero because even a celebrity in her late 40s would get in it.

PS: Why is an M3 in the sub-zero zone, put that to the cool zone

The 911 has it beaten then. Plus - by your post i'd say that's exactly what makes it uncool
Proper supercars must make you suffer unless you're on a racetrack
The 911 and the R8 would pass the Fiona Bruce test so they would be both cool, but the 911 has the engine in the wrong place so it's uncool.

You got that wrong, things in the wrong place are cool
the tuned up bmw's are uncool and all audis are cool/sub zero
Quote from morpha :You got that wrong, things in the wrong place are cool

That means you're uncool then, because having your penis attached to your head is far from cool.
