Gentlemen, time to build some cars!

The Themed Challenge is back after a 2 year break and with a big change - now its all about building cars!

In the first season you will have to build a...

1995 Roadster for the European Market

An affordable Roadster for everyone in the European Union - your biggest competitor in this Market is Mazda with their MX-5 model and Fiat with the Barchetta.
The roadster can be both hard top or soft top AND it has to be one that was unlocked in the last 10 years ingame!

How to play?

Simple! Read the Guidelines at the bottom, go to this Google Docs Spreadsheet - build your car, fill in your data and send it to me. If any stat has a minimum Value or limits in the top bar, please follow them!

Rules
No CNC Parts
No Limited Production Parts (Aluminium panels, Race Headers, Hand Made Interior)

I recommend to post a small advertisement of the car here to appeal it to the future customers in the voting but you don't have to do it

The top 3 winners will be reviewed LIVE on twitch!

Introduction

The goal in the Themed Car Challenges is to build an Car that is reasonable for the specific theme it is entered into.
This challenge is not about making as much power as possible or other crazy-ass Cars. The winner will be chosen by the
judges, and that is you! You decide which Car you would choose, if YOU were the CUSTOMER. Be realistic about your choices!


Submission Guidelines

  • The latest public release version is used for the challenges.
  • One submission per user per theme. The PMed Car is your final and only theme entry.
  • If a patch is released during a challenge, the entry has to be (re-)submitted in the latest patch version.
  • After filling the spreadsheet with your Car's data, submit your entry via PM to Pyrlix, the TEC game-master.
  • You must submit the Car by the last day of building time, otherwise it counts as not submitted and is disqualified.
  • Scoring (Season 1): 1st place 5 points, 2nd place 4 points, 3rd place 3, 4th place 2 point, 5th place 1 point
  • If your Car stats in the sheet don't correspond to the ones in the submitted Car file, this counts as cheating.
  • Don't allocate 2 slots at one time. Only 1 slot at once. Finish your work before you start the next one!


Voting Guidelines

Remember that you are the customer, and you want to get the best out of a car for your money.
Vote accordingly! Some examples for what kind of questions you should be asking yourselves:

a) Is all that power actually accessible, usable and not far too dangerous?
b) Will the Comfort break your back?
c) Does it eat your wallet?

Do the voting by putting your name in the "Vote" line below each scenario. You have three votes per theme:
1) "3MyForumID" is worth three points towards the placement.
2) "2MyForumID" is worth two points towards the placement.
3) "1MyForumID" is worth one point towards the placement.

If there is one or several names in that cell already, edit the cell and add your name: "2NameX, 1NameY, 2MyForumID"
with the score you want to give in front of your forum ID.
You are not allowed to vote for your own Car!


Season Format

The runtime for every challenge is one week and every season will have 4 events, i.e. a season is 4 weeks long.
There may be minor breaks in between due to holidays or unavailability of the game-master.
The competition weeks are structured the following way:

Car Submissions: Saturday, Sunday, Monday
Car Voting: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
Challenge Wrap-Up and Announcement: Friday

You want to save the Environment?
You want some fun RWD car?
You want long service intervals?
You want low tax, insurance and fuelcosts?
You want a smooth Inline 6 Engine?
You want a sophisticated active suspension?
You want to fly down the road?

Thank God, Mars Engineering is presenting the "M.E. Roadfly 6" - the answer to all the questions!

Man browses the newspaper and reads the Shromet ad.
Shaking his head he gives a sigh, "I hope it's quicker and sharper than the writer. Thai-med indeed".
