Saleen S7 Twin Turbo: 750hp and 700 lb-ft of torque of American muscle, need I say more - Isaac Adams-Hands - The 50 coolest cars ever
Let's see how many our community of automotive aficionados can check off...past and present
XKR
XKE
Supra
MGB-GT
T-Bird
Camaro
And if the list were extended a bit, which cool cars that you've owned were worthy of adding?

How about my 1960 Corvette? Bought new 10/1959; sold 42 years later (didn't want my son to kill himself in it). Unrestored, all original except engine (327-365HP), 4 speed, 4.11 positraction. Honduras maroon exterior, black interior, white soft top.
Basically, a 1953 Chevy pickup truck chassis; no power anything; drum brakes; death trap steering column with no collapsible section for impaling the driver. No regrets selling, as it needed restoration (wiring crumbling, paint still glossy but many imperfections; didn't want to keep it as a "survivor" or do a resto-mod. Soooo much happier with my XKR, particularly with all the safety stuff and AC here in Joja!

Iconic Proportions
Thanks, Bruce. Other 60's models, both from the USA and Europe, with iconic proportions were Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield, Sophia Loren, Brigitte Bardot, Ursula Andress and others.
