So now we start on the cars that bring in the profit. What companies made enough leeway to build a fire breathing dragon of a sports car, or did they have to sacrifice fun to get their fuel economy up to the new requirements.

8 Nooneels Diana 0.77
Nothing says sporty like smoking the tires at 120mph

7 BlastersPewPew Mojave 0.78
Arguably the best all out sports car of the bunch... with a price tag to match.

6 Lordred 0.83
Suggested by service centers everywhere.... to keep them in business

5 Baxeg 1.03
Actually beats out VicVictory for most comfortable and the safest.

4 Zabhawkin Benchmark 1.06
Most prestigious doesn't mean best.

3 VicVictory 1.12
Not the best at anything, but good enough at all of them to make 3rd.

2 HighOctaineLove 1.19
Much like VicVictories... for less.

1 Elouda Mercury 412TS 1.73
Uses the same body as their family and economy versions, but with a sportier variant of their engine that still manages 75mpg US.
Technically the least capable but at nearly half of the price of most of the others in its market

When you have a job to do, a trailer to pull, or just want a bit more than the average family car. Another profitable and highly contested category is the SUV.

8 Nooneels 0.84
Very posh, just don't ask it to do much

7 BlastersPewPew 0.94
Great capability followed by being the most expensive to own.

6 VicVictory 1.07
The second best capability and the third most expensive to own

5 Baxeg 1.103
Its cheap to buy...

4 Zabhawkin Benchmark 1.106
The steering wheel is just there for looks.

3 HighOctaineLove 1.164
Booooorrrriiiinnnnnnggggg.

2 Lordred 1.182
Gets stuck in the mall parking lot.

"Ardent" and "expensive" don't go together. I call shenanigans! :lol:

Last but not least the class where I thought money wouldn't be a deciding factor, but sometimes things surprise you.

8 Baxeg 1.69
The lowest drivability will keep you awake while the class leading comfort and lowest sportiness tries to put you to sleep

7 Benchmark 1.77
It will safely take you to the service center.

6 BlastersPewPew 1.87
The luxury car for you.... If money is no object

5 HighOctaineLove 1.96
The only car in this class to use the highest grade of fuel available.

4 Lordred 2.11
This car litterally is in the middle of the pack on almost everything.

3 Nooneels Mythos 2.41
Its actually the cheapest to drive of their entire lineup.

2 VicVictory 2.47
I got nothing for ya.

1 Elouda Luna 412TL 3.50
This car is in a class of its own...

And now for the final evaluation and scores.

Cost of ownership dominated the contest more than I expected, but in most cases the winner of the catagory was nearly half of the average.

I bet I can do much better now that I know a bit more about building cars, price is a BIG factor in almost all these challenges.

My first ever entered contest resulted in a 3rd place (of 8) not bad.

I wouldn't feel bad Blasters, your cars tended to have the highest capability score before cost was factored in. As far as the final game would be concerned you were in a higher level market.

Oh I forgot about the new demographics coming out, yeah they would be decent premium cars then.

It would depend on how many people want this to come back, it was a lot of work on both ends. If I do I would use the in game scoring, but I think I would wait until the next big patch with all of its re-balancing.
