Some of these cars were at Keels and Wheels a few weeks ago. As a Pontiac fan, I think they ranked the Trans Am a little low. I’m also surprised they excluded the 64-67 GTO.

That was a weird mix of cars and rankings. No way I put the Shelby at the top of the list and the Cobra in the 90s.

They lumped all the Z cars together.

In HS I had an 87’ Trans am GTA ( almost new)had a stepfather that I had zero in common with but he did buy me that car when I was 16 years old……

This list was made by really old white guys. The Karmann Ghia?

Yep, surprised the VW bug was not on the list.

How was the iconic Jaguar Etype placed at the end of the list? Heresy

The Esprit, a nice car that 007 made even more popular but at #7…yikes.

The list is too long for me to go through… where did they rank the '86 Chevy Cavalier?

My ‘85 635csi looked just like this. Cougar Red. Drove it to my wedding and drove off with my bride!
That’s where those cool cars will get you, :joy:
