Re: POPULAR AUTOMOBILE Comparison: Vector, Airborne & Erin

Thanks for review!
Mercury with it's high price tag in late 70s and practically whole 80s was flagship supercar from my company. I'm surprised that it wasn't classified like if would be Vri's car.
Would you want something in 80s magazines? XD

Re: POPULAR AUTOMOBILE Comparison: Vector, Airborne & Erin

Im wondering why there is such a big price difference between cars - the most expensive costs 8x more than the cheapest. Isn't that like comparing a 458 with a gt86, unless you were comparing cars with similar capabilities regardless of price eg 911 turbo s vs gt-r

It's all about usage; as Vector and Erin are supposed to give unleaded fun cheaply, Airborne is just a supercar without two cylinders (after terrifying result from Hades project) and actually was going cheaper and cheaper throughout the years. My car was made as pinnacle of prestige in company for late 70s and to mid 80s. All about idea bruh

Well, yes, in terms of prize there is no direct comparision, but the cars have some-what similar performance. What is interesting, is to see 3 different approaches into a single goal, in that time those were the sportier cars in their company line-up, and each has a different style, the maximum performance out of cheaper arrangements (combat), quality materials and construction in a british car (Erin) and expensive-prestigious design (Mercury).

Truth to be told, those were the first cars I found from that era in the forum xD . I actually didnt recive that many entries, I looked for them and then ask if I can review them, that's why they have different price ranges and style. Must of the cars in the magazine were designed previously, instead of being specifically built for a comparision in certain category or a review.

Really impressive work. I'm truly enjoying reading these articles and the photo work is so good that I actually always look forward to what exciting shots will be on the next page - just like I would with a "real" car magazine.

Thank you! One of the things I had in mind when I started was to get the feeling of a car magazine, in conection with the individual company threads and the automation universe, not just reviews. I don't buy magazines anymore, but I did have a huge collection when I was a kid, and those are my inspiration :D

Anyway, next close encounter is up!
