its thoughts like that which made them want to take over the world :P ;)
this car is the only car i'd choose over an F50 and F40 and Enzo... (not the FXX, or Dauer 962...)
id choose this over the Koenigsegg, over the Zonda F, over the Ascari, over the S7 TT, over the EB110, over the Bugatti Veyron...
as a road car, absolutely nothing touches it as an overal package. and its recieved the best sounding V10 i've ever heard.
in my mind, there is only one thing which makes this car less desirable... aerodynamic flow over the top of the car is more determined by a designer then it is an engineer. and in some ways... that design makes it more the logical successor to the F50, and better in every way.
what is it that these germans have thought of? make a hypercar that willl last eons, drive like stink and be calm when you dont want to... the only way to dethrown the CGT from its pedistal is for Porsche to.... :arrow: :wink: 8)

sub zero.. Unlike nfinity I wouldn't speak it in the same breath as the f40, but otherwise.. Top comes off, ultra fast, ultra exclusive.. The epitomy of cool.

It's the best car in production, and one of the most wonderful cars ever!!!
I Love this car, It's not my favorite car because the F40, but is the second.
Subzero, definitely subzero!!!!!!
It's so beautiful, and it's manual, and the sound of his V10 is gorgeous!!!!!!

Its cool, but its not funky enough to be subzero.

Despite thinking uncool when you first suggested this car, i now am going to vote cool :D
It isn't sub-zero - i mean there are likely to be 1000+ of them driving about, and it's too german, but as a road car it is untouchable as an all-rounder
If i had a lot of money to spend on a cars, i would make sure this was in my garage before anything else - it is such a pure car, and a better drive (by all accounts) than any other hyper-car out there.
Cool, but after i bought this, an Enzo would take ups spot number 2 in my dream garage :wink:

one of my favourite car ever, that last drifting video on the mountains confirmed that :love:
Sub for me :D

Really really cool.
Not subzero though. Engine note is truly sublime, but the car misses something truly passionate.

Engine that was going to be used in a le mans car
manual shift
sounds like nothing else (cept maybe a 355 ;))
coupe and targa top
Not much beats it for me

The Carrera GT is subzero - it has the most amazing engine sound! :shock:

Subzero, an amazing product from Porsche and a sound !!! :drool:

can't decide it it's cool or sub. The engine noise is the soundtrack of my wet dreams :mrgreen:
just subzero

Subzero!!!
It looks amazing, the sound it's just perfect, it's so good as an Enzo. Do you want better ?? :mrgreen:
10000% subzero! can get much better then this!

subzero! The CGT is a real screamer, looks the part and goes even better... and that engine and the sound!!!!! :twisted:

Its a breathatking car, every thing about it is awesome, but i think your missing the point. Its not cool.
Its too engineered
Its too complex
And
Its too german.
Think about the classic TG situation - your at a junction. Who the hell, other than a complete car bore would let you out. Everyone will be thinking: "just another rich bastard in an expensive 911"
Subzero just for the sound. Everything else is just bonus.

Ok, I can understand the too german, but Too engineered?? Too complex?? Can u justify ur points?
Indeed I was wondering the same.. the CGT compared to other present supercars is dead "simple"
Chaos in 1983!
11-24-2005, 03:40 PM
man this is a hard one, I really can´t decide between cool and subzero. I love this car and I would probably take it over an Enzo, the sound is to die for, and it looks amazing...not to mention the handling, it`s the perfect allarounder. But, there is something that makes it stay in the ¨cool¨ section, don´t ask me what!

For some reason I have always loved the look of this car, the design is just amazing in my point of view and if I had the money for a supercar im pritty sure this would be one id pick outa the bunch just love the look of it he he .... very cool car

Subzero:
The Carrera GT gives me the same impact as a 993 Turbo; such agression; such quality and a no BS design.
I'd easily say it's the most awesome Porsche ever built; with exotic styling; a race inspired V10 and supreme performance what's not to like?!

Astonishing car, i just think it could be better soooo... uncool

People don't have a fair grasp of coolness around here. The faster and more expensive the car get, the more cool it will become. Look at the wall, it's ridiculous...

look at this car... everything about it is the absolute perfect example of what Porsche can do with a road car (well almost ;) )
the cost is virtually inconsequential to what makes this car sub-zero... it is what this car does... the aural pleasures... visual, feel, and sound...
the GT3RS, and M3 CSL are there IMO because they are the absolutes... it is that immaculate and inpregnable vision that makes it sooo perfect in my eyes.
i dont just vote subzero for things that are more expensive... hell, to me the mclaren F1 is seriously uncool for many reasons... the Zonda F is uncool to me... the Diablo... that one is close to me.. SZ one day, and cool the next
i cannot speak for others (obviously, i disagree with soo many lol ) but callling the CGT anything but SZ seems inconcievable)

Oh, I wasn't specifically talking baout the situation. But when nearly 1800 kg automatic "sports"cars are considered cool, a BMW 7 series is cool, a Civic is getting subzero votes. you know something is wrong :)
The choice for "coolness" here is totally different as at Top Gear. Not per se a bad thing, but results are very predictable this way.

12-27-2005, 05:40 AM
uncool for me
this car would never have happened if porsche didn't pull out of the le mans program to pour their time and money into the cayenne. this is just a money making exercise, so not enough passion

Although I'm not a huge fan of Porsches, this is one Porsche that does make me turn my head when I see it driving down the street (or hear it, especially in a tunnel, where it makes a VERY loud noise).
The shark-like front area, the perforated engine cover, etc make it special. The only niggles I have about it is the rear wing which frankly looks a bit naff when all it does is go up and down (the SLR and Veyron have a more complex and elaborate looking setup), and the wooden shifter which looks out of place (but can be replaced). But hey, it's a very powerful supercar with a manual shifter! Most cars of this type come with paddle shifters or an auto, so that's good.
I don't really see why it can't be subzero as it is an exclusive supercar, and being a Porsche, is loved by many. So yeah, it's subzero for me, even tho' I hate to admit it ;)

as a big porsche fan this is subzero, it's the best porsche in the model range right now and i guess it will stay there for a while. the whole package is great, everything fits. hope i'll have the chance one day to join a ride in it.

Subzero - The engine SCREAMS like a V10 should, the looks are awesome, and its tops in my books as a road car. What else could I want? oh yeah, THE CAR! THis a serious automobile. And I love it.
Really cool!!
but not subzero :)
it is better than Enzo/Ford GT/ and every other supercar,
but for me
Carrera GT doesn`t have something - the soul 8)

I thinks its cool, because although its a hypercar its a porsche so it is not that show off!!! Also it is the only porsche i'd like to own because its not the usual porsche recipy, is a hard car not for every one.
-removable hard top
-stock 19/20 wheels
-greatest exahust sound ever
-implicit assumption that the driver has strong driving skills to handle such a car
..... subzero!
