* Almost any Italian Car easily falls into this trope, though it's not surprising to see them also fall into [[The Alleged Car]] territory.

** As [[Word of God|Enzo Ferrari himself allegedly said]], before all Ferraris, Lamborghinis or Lancias [[Trope Maker|THE]] Italian Car Itself can only be an Alfa Romeo. (Enzo Ferrari [[Chuck Norris Facts|had begun his racing career at]] Alfa Romeo.)

** Speaking of Ferraris, most of them were cool because they ''had'' [[Cursed With Awesome|to be cool]]. [http://www.topspeed.com/cars/ferrari/1969-1974-ferrari-dino-246-gt-ar79301.html The] [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dino_~~~~

* Ford GT, the [[Spiritual Successor]] to the legendary GT-40, the greatest car that Ford has ever made.

** Slides close to [[The Alleged Car]] territory, if [[Top Gear|Jeremy Clarkson]] is to be believed. His GT spent more time in the shop, almost always due to electrical faults, than on the road, but he once said that when it was working, it was quite good.

Line 482:

* The Ford GT-90 concept car. Too bad it was never produced.

** To go into detail, this car used two engines fused together, raising the horsepower to 720 and the top speed to around the Veyron... Along with the exaust being so darn hot that it required ceramic inulation like that of the space shuttle to keep the car from melting.

* Almost everything Lamborghini has ever made can qualify as a [[Cool Car]]. Some of the most famous names of cars from this company are the [[Badass Grandpa|Miura]], [[Memetic Badass|Countach]], Jalpa, [[Super Speed|Diablo]], [[Badass|Murcielago]] and as of late, the [[Made of Win|Aventador]]. Special Mention goes to the [[Made of Win|Reventon]], just [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamborghini_Revent~~~~

** The 1995 version of the Lamborghini Diablo SE30, it has most of the accesories removed in exchange for more horsepower and a high enough top speed to rival NASCAR, only 150 were ever made and Jamiroqaui frontman Jay Kay owned one of them, he wanted it shipped overseas so it could appear in the video for ''Cosmic Girl'', too bad for him the car's handler couldn't resist taking the Diablo on a joyride and smashing it up beyond repair.

** On the subject of Lambo's, the Countach would count since it was the first Lamborghini to use their infamous swing up doors. (Fact: They were used because normal doors just would not work with the design, a classic case of [[Awesome Yet Practical]].)
