I think Mitsubishi nailed it with the Galant , don’t forget AMC’s Rebel Machine or SC/Rambler. I think Mitsubishi’s 3000GT/ GTO VR-4 sounds badass but maybe I’m weird. Also Lamborghini’s Murcielago and Diablo.

Well what say you Oppositelock?

Challenger Hell Cat. That name sounds like it wants to murder you.

I want to name my son Charles Arnage so badly. That way he can go by Charlie Arnage, Chuck Arnage, or C. Arnage.

Of course I’ve since thought of several others (Isdera Imperator!), but I stand by that.

DeTomaso Mangusta ranks right up there.

Well, were talking about coolest NAME right? forget the actual car and you might think the “Citation X-11" could be the coolest. It’s got the letter X in it!

Amphicar

Viper T/A -(Time Attack) it is the badass name of a snake followed by two letters that literally mean it was meant to go fast around a track and has no forgiveness for inability to do other things.

Touareg (Twahhreg)

Mazda RX-7 (FD3S) Spirit R Type-A

It is just a bunch of manufacturer codes for a very specially tuned street car. I just love them. If I was to ever move to Japan for a while, I would buy this and starve myself to afford it. Then import it in 2027 cause I want a 2002 MY example.

That is stunning, but it would be hard to find a good stock one, especially in Innocent Blue Mica 

CaptDale - is secretly British > S65 10/31/2016 at 13:11

But this is on it’s way to Canada. Yes I know my specific requirements make it more rare. 1500 Spirit Rs, 2/3rds Type A, and I can’t find color production numbers.

S65 > CaptDale - is secretly British 10/31/2016 at 13:13

Quick google search says less than 800

CaptDale - is secretly British > S65 10/31/2016 at 13:16

Well explains the high price, but Innocent Blue Mica is the best color

What about a “regular” FD3S? Or do you want the Spirit-R specific upgrades?

CaptDale - is secretly British > S65 10/31/2016 at 13:20

1

I mean a regular FD3S would not be terrible, but yes I specifically want the upgrades that are included in the Spirit-R and the exclusivity.

S65 > CaptDale - is secretly British 10/31/2016 at 13:43

1

Oh, I understand. I want a NA2 NSX-R in Monaco Blue Pearl, there are only around 12-30 NA2 Type Rs and maybe only five in the color I want.

Oh man, that’ll be a rough find.

S65 > CaptDale - is secretly British 10/31/2016 at 14:18

I’m saving my pennies now sir. Also you could order a NSX-R in any color you please but according to Goo-Net it was only available from 2002 to 2005. There isn’t a NSX-R of any sort Goo-Net

CaptDale - is secretly British > S65 10/31/2016 at 14:23

1

Yeah, I should start saving pennies now for my RX-7. But I am not. Gonna buckle down soon though.

S65 > CaptDale - is secretly British 10/31/2016 at 14:26

1

Er, not a NSX-R specifically but a project car or interesting car of some sort.  

CaptDale - is secretly British > S65 10/31/2016 at 14:44

Ah yeah... I’m trying to stay away from those atm... And by stay away I mean sell my 928 and try to keep my Sprite.

Well what would you do with the Sprite if you could keep it?

Finish restoring it. Though I have been toying with the idea of swapping in a S2K drivetrain for extra power, but still having that 4 cyl feel, but then again having the proper engine back in would be nice too.

S65 > CaptDale - is secretly British 10/31/2016 at 16:24

How far along are you in the restoration ?

CaptDale - is secretly British > S65 10/31/2016 at 16:42

Car has been fully stripped, painted, and is ready to be put back together. I literally have every nut and bolt to put her back together.

S65 > CaptDale - is secretly British 10/31/2016 at 16:50

You know what, at that point I’d try to keep it

Yeah, that’s where I am headed. And you know if I have to sell my GTO I just might. Then I’d buy a nice bike and have my healey for when it rains.
