At North York Auto Glass, it’s safe to say we have a bit of an obsession with cars. While our primary focus in our daily work is ensuring that our customers get their windshields and other windows fixed and replaced as quickly as possible, we are also auto enthusiasts in other ways.
Below, we’ve compiled a list of what we think are the coolest cars on the market right now. Some of them are wildly out there, while others are more classic and recognizable. In any case, it’s always fun to see what’s on everyone’s vehicle wish list. Take a scroll to see which models get a spot on ours.

The Perennial Favourite: Porsche 911
A coveted car since its conception, the Porsche 911’s first design was released in 1963, and it has continued to be sought after and revisited with various style upgrades and special editions ever since. Its sleek two-door design is a classic component of any sports car, but the Porsche 911 has an almost quaint quality to it as well, with its friendly headlights reminiscent of the Swinging 60s and what we might perceive as simpler times.
One of the most recent iterations of the 911 is this special edition by luxury California car designer Singer, which specializes in exclusive versions of classic cars (that, of course, end up being even more pricey than their high-end market counterparts). While various designers can take a spin at switching things up for the 911, it’s become such a classic that it’s still instantly recognizable, and therefore still one of the coolest cars on the market.

The Fast and the Luxurious: Lexus LC Coupe
The Lexus brand has become completely synonymous with luxury, despite only having been introduced as a brand less than 30 years ago. The brand’s youth has been to its advantage, as it has been able to stay nimble and on top of trends while still carving out its own design identity in the upper end of the mass-produced luxury car market.
The Coupe certainly maintains an air of exclusivity with its two-door design – certainly, it was intended for play rather than for practicality. One of its most defining features is speed – the car can accelerate to 62 miles per hour in less than five seconds, thanks to its 10-speed automatic gearbox.
What’s even better is how great it looks while going that fast. The wheels are one of the most dominant features in the look of the car’s frame, as the body sits low and nestled on top of the wheel wells, giving it the appearance of a speedy, luxury-level racing car.

The Constant Classic: Ford Mustang
You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who grew up in North America and didn’t know what a Ford Mustang is. Besides being the product of an automobile manufacturing dynasty, the Mustang has a branding style that can be spotted from yards away, and instantly ups the cool factor of the person driving it. The car has been featured in countless key pop culture moments. To name just a few famous Ford Mustangs from movies and TV shows, as compiled by Complex magazine:
- The perfect getaway car for a heist in the original Gone In Sixty Seconds (1974)
- A restored 1967 Mustang made a comeback appearance in this movie’s remake version starring Angelina Jolie, released in 2000
- The striped 1976 Cobra II Mustang driven by legendary beauty Farrah Fawcett in Charlie’s Angels
- The time James Bond swapped out his usual Aston Martin for a Mustang in Diamonds Are Forever (1971)
- Marty McFly’s futuristic fantasy model Mustang from Back to the Future II (1989)
- Kevin Costner’s ultimate “cool-guy” car in the baseball movie Bull Durham (1988)
- The beautiful 1968 Mustang driven by Pierce Brosnan (a former James Bond himself) in the remake of the classic art heist The Thomas Crown Affair
One of the best things about the Mustang is that it’s never really gone off the market, and the modern models are in many ways just as appealing as the vintage versions. Whether your Mustang is new or of a bygone era, it’s rare to have a product that can still be cool after it’s undergone its umpteenth redesign for a new century. And yet, this is exactly what the Ford Mustang has managed to do.

The New Classic: Dodge Charger
Call us crazy but we don’t think it’s a coincidence that American muscle cars have surged in popularity after the incredible box office success of the Fast & Furious franchise in recent years. As you might recall, Vin Diesel’s character is a die-hard fan of the classic Dodge Charger (mind you, with several key modifications that help the engine roar even louder than most, and the addition of nitrous oxide gas tanks).
It’s likely that car enthusiasts would have continued to appreciate the Charger over the past couple of decades even without the franchise, but there’s no denying that the model’s association with a hit movie franchise has certainly helped its cool factor in recent years. Older versions of the Charger have arguably propelled sales for the more modern-looking design of the models available on the mass market these days, and it’s not hard to see why. From the instantly recognizable shape of the body and its caged grill, to the geometric, classic shape of the roof, the Dodge Charger remains one of the coolest cars out there, vintage or otherwise.
