A bit OT, but can someone point me in the direction of some nice and easy photoediting software? Especially for getting just the car image. Want to make pretty ads like you guys!

Paint.NET works best IMO. Use GIMP if you are familiar with it.

Presenting the 1990 Solo Beaver XL HFE! Where XL stands for extra large compact, and HFE for high fuel efficiency! It's far from being a luxury or performance car, but as far as low price and low running costs without compromising passenger and cargo space, Solo has you covered!

Re: Themed Car Challenge (Season 1 , Round 3) [BUILD]

This is not at all what I wanted to enter, but the 2.6m max wheelbase caught me off guard rather late in the game. Relatives, illness, and crazy mishaps aside, should my entry be ok despite its tardiness, I decided I'd try to do something different. I see hatchbacks, wagons, what appears to be sedans, but its difficult to tell if some nice coupes have been included so I did that with the not-alfa gtv (difficult to tell given the image below)

Introducing the FASE Tu y yo or more compactly Tuyyo (meaning "you and I") a 2+2 alternative for your consumption.

teehee


also, im wondering would the type of vehicle matters on the scoring?
like if you're actually looking for a car, you will choose a compromise between what you want and what you need right?

you want a sporty car, but you need to lug your stuff around a lot. that's why there are wagons. compromising price and fuel economy for utility.
you want another sporty car, but you often lug people around too. a sedan would be handy here. compromising slight economy for practicality.
you live in a crowded city and just plain need a cheap and economical car that could do a lil bit of everything. this is where a hatch back excels.

----VOTING TIME----
Voting happens here
Car Overview

A small note to 2 people here - wont call names: You made cars that have their family/model set to 1986 and 1988. That does not mean a disqualify for your cars, but you do penalize yourself with that.
We have one disqualify... one who did not read the rules. Maximum 2.6m Wheelbase does not mean that 2.76m are allowed - the Opel Senator B Wagon is a BIT too long.
