So, I fixed the forumulas, and it went up to the 20's in a few categories. I still have a lot of work ahead, apparently.

I had the scores being the same between groups problem as well, but assumed it was just down to my ancient version of excel breaking everything in the conversion from .xlsx to .xls, so it wasn't your edit that broke things because I'm the idiot who tried to charge $100 trillion for a car and let you know that things got broken :P

Right, let's try this challenge again. I've once again used the design of my previous cars, but altered their engines and such.

Besar 78, the luxury sedan. The version I sent in for this challenge is black.

The 1977 Kuda, a muscle car. The version I sent in for the challenge is red.

Here is my submission in the what now appears to be a highly contested market, hopefully some of its more unique qualities will set it apart.

Re: CTC - Car Tycoon Challenge #4 - 1977 [BUILD]

Once again I have saved money by sacking all the bodywork designers and getting the cleaner to throw something together before he locks up for the night. Hopefully the performance will be better than the looks

*edit*
Just found another potential exploit but it should be incredibly easy to fix though. If you set the factory to a negative maximum production run it will give you a huge amount of money instead of costing you money. It should be easily fixable by either giving the factory cost and tooling multiplier a minimum value, or the production run a minimum value
