He is a real petrol-head. He had a pretty quick time on Top Gear’s track.

an exotic or cool car can not make you cool if you are not. a point perfectly demonstrated here.

sorry jay kay, you are not cool. you had the chance and you blew it. not even prancing horses could save you. shame.

…or mybe you didn’t have a chance at all son.

I had to google him…. didnt know who he was. :p

I heard somewhere that he has a race track in his back garden.

@sunbeam Jay Kay is coolest guy ever, you suck!

@RUFke: If being an over-glorified delinquent is your ideal of “cool,” then more power to you.

Jay Kay an over glorified delinquent? You people are sick. He is the lead singer of one of the tightest bands on planet earth, he is soulfull, jazzistic, unique and he worked hard doing over 150 gigs and 7 albums. And by the way he has real talent, something you people don´t seem to praise these days listening to all this trash electronic gaga music spreading all over like f#ing cancer.
Calling him “cool” its relative, but just consider one fact: he started the Adidas Gazelle trend 20 years ago and those adidas listed jackets that now are everywhere. Maybe you “cool” people criticists have one of these. Thanks to who? Oh well, the uncool over glorified delinquent.

Among other facts like he is a fantastic dancer and a hat weirdo with extraordinary taste for cars, he owns more than 50 in his big flashy country estate. Now this is a lot of juice isn´t it Catalyst? If he isn´t cool who is it? You Catalyst maybe? Oh well I guess it sucks being a nobody.

He is a car nut, his collection of cars is fantastic but the best thing about him is that he isnt afraid to use them on the track where true supercars belong.

I love that he created his own cupholder in the Enzo by sticking the water next to the seat.

I admit the man is talented, and worth of distinction amongst his peers. Though I am not certain that displaying such obscene wealth when 80% of the world population are suffering in poverty. This is not to suggest he does not deserve wealth or the cars. It is the media who plays to these people and further promotes them to a place out of reality.

Nice post and we will look forward for future updates.ergreohgio

The guy’s got money and talent. That doesn’t mean “life is easy” for him. You just never know.

@Quest, i don’t dispute the cars are nice, although i am not a big fan of the enzo.

you say he is cool because he wears sportswear?. oh dear. i think we have differing standards of cool.
steve mcqueen, marlon brando (before he got fat), paul newman, al pacino, robert de niro. these people are not cool because they wore sneakers. its my point exactly. they are cool for what they are and what they did and how they carry themselves and not the car they happened to drive or the sneakers on their feet. mcqueen would be just as cool in a porsche as he would be waiting for a bus. pacino was cool as a bisexual bank robber and as the godfather. cool is a complete aura and style. jay kay is crass and not cool and he can’t cover it with a car or a hat or some clothes.

my friend at university went to the same school as jay kay in ealing, london. he said jay kay was into metal and skate bands all the way through school till 18, and used to hang around with skaters. so much for all that throwback funk soul stuff he churns out now. maybe its just another prop.

Yeah. Life would be super easy! I can get all the thins that i want and all the cars that I can drive. When you have a car you can always have a girl seating beside you. My dream life!

should jay kay decided not to follow the trend of conforming to the acidjazz scene during the early 90s, i don’t think none of us would have heard of him now.

and thanks to that also he’s now a multimillionaire…he might be an assh0le but nobody can deny the man is talented…i mean, seriously…jay kay is as ugly as f#ck by today standard..but he get all the chicks, money and cars..i don’t listen to his music nowadays since he stopped playing all those sick acidjazz tunes and his music pretty much crap nowadays but for me jay kay is the epitome of someone who is living the dream life…he worked really hard and went through shit to be where he is now and for that he fits the bill of “cool” by my definition

A Ferrari geek who loves collecting cool cars. Money can really buy great stuff. I would love to have that white Ferrari so cool.

Nice cars but I actually never heard of the guy and I had to read his Wiki to find out who he was. I have heard some Jamiroquai tracks before but they are not that popular in the U.S to be honest. Clearly he did very well for himself though; his car collection is superb.
