star car shootout
This is it. The final round of the Gone In 60 Seconds Star Car Shootout tournament. Where's Eleanor? She didn't make the cut. The remaining contenders? In one corner, we have the gorgeous and yet completely motionless Lamborghini Miura. In the other corner, a powerful combination of Italian style and American muscle, the Intermeccanica Italia. Now it's your job to figure out which car is the coolest star of H.B. Halicki's Gone In 60 Seconds. Place your bets, and hit the polls.

star car shootout
This is it. The final four cars left in our Star Car Shootout tournament. It's been madness trying to get to here from our original selection of 32 cars, and maddening for you to deal with the brilliantly brutish poll system, but we've made it together seemingly none the worse for wear. Certainly, the cars left are all winner-worthy. Eleanor is no surprise, as she's the star of the show. The Intermeccanica and the DeTomaso are both robust Italian-American blends. The Miura is just dripping with style. But who will make the final round? That, friends, is up to you. UPDATE: Polls for this round are closed. Check out the finals here.

American fastbacks are by definition cool, although I'm not a fan of the '71-'73 Ford Clydesdale. A '66 Charger isn't cool? A '67 AMC Marlin isn't cool? 1964-69 Barracudas more »
