The "Coolest" was probably the Challenger I bought when I was a young Private that I definitely could not afford to drive (Have you seen the cost of insurance for an 18 year old with a muscle car?). The "Best" vehicle I've ever owned was probably my Suzuki M50. Rode that thing for years, even in the ice and snow. Wipe the snow off and it would start every time, only left me stranded one time when I hit a board with nails that fell off a truck in front of me and put a big gash in my tire, but that wasn't the bikes fault. Currently ride a Harley full time and every time I start it, I get the warm fuzzies.

My coolest was not the Fiat but my 78 Nissan 280Z British Racing Green.

Just like this one. I loved this car. After two kids, I sold it to a friend who bought it for his girlfriend who later wrapped it around a tree in Texas.
She survived, but the car didn't.

Looking back, I've had a few remarkable vintage trucks over the years that I truly wish I still had. Back in high school and college, I owned a 1966 Bronco Half cab. Later on, I had the pleasure of owning a Land Rover Ex-Mod Defender 110 Tithonus, specifically an RAF radio Truck with RHD, equipped with the good ol' 2.5 NA Diesel engine. Just last week, I stumbled upon a 1987 Toyota FJ 60. This beauty will serve as my next truck project. If anyone knows of a skilled Land Cruiser mechanic, I'm open to recommendations in the Tulsa area. Last but not least, I have my 2005 Jeep LJ 6-speed, which might be on the chopping block to fund this Land Cruiser project.
