The Car Shopping Round (Round 9)

[Madrias]

So, it's 1985 and you're in need of a new car. Something fun, something... sporty. Something that will impress everyone, yet you could live with day-to-day. Something sleek and futuristic with a sense of style.

Storm Automotive may just have the car for you, with the Storm Xenon. Pop-up headlights for improved aerodynamics, digital gauges, top-of-the-line tape deck, comfortable seating for 4 people (and you can actually fit two people in the back seats!), a punchy twin-turbocharged V8, 5 speed stick, T-Top roof, and many more little features you'll appreciate in your car.

With All-Wheel-Drive, you'll have better 0-60 performance than many people can claim, and with double-wishbone suspension on a unibody chassis, you'll have excellent handling. The trunk is big enough to hold just about anything you'd want, and has a dedicated space for the T-Top covers, so they're never lost, damaged, or left behind on a rainy afternoon.

The Fahrzeug Corporation has done poorly in the last decade due to gas prices and changing regulations. Almost all of their remaining money went into research to get on the technological edge. And here it is! The first car of 2 for the new C series to be made in 1985. This Sport Convertible edition may not look like much on the outside but is filled with the latest tech on the inside!

The new C series uses the latest in German mechanical engineeering (and even some Japanese electronics) to give you features such as a high quality Geared AWD system in all of the Sport models. The new electronic convertible can make the car even more fun to drive. A powerful Twin Turbo V8 uses the latest in engine technology to push the car to its limits without pushing your wallet! It also has perineum leather seats and a cassette player to make your ride conferable! The 5 speed Manual gives you control over your car. The all new AWD system and Double Wishbone Suspension system makes ease of driving a standard! End up with a Family of four or a few friends? The 5 seats and plenty of interior space have you covered! Even better is the starting price of only $28,000!

Looking for tech? Find it in a Fahrzeug!

You may ask yourself "What sets the Regent apart from the other cars in the field?" The answer is simple: Class, refinement, prestige. Here at Ventnor*, we're not trying to be the fastest, or the biggest. We're only going for the best. When you show up at your class reunion driving a Ventnor, people won't see someone showing off. They'll see a discerning, cultured, sophisticated individual with uncompromising standards. With the Regent, you'll get a smooth luxurious interior conforming only to the strict standards we employ at Ventnor. Standard equipment includes, AM/FM Premium Cassette Radio, Power Steering, ABS, Air Conditioning, Heated Power Seats, Power Windows, Heated Power Mirrors, and an all new Digital Instrument Cluster. In addition, the Quantum Fuel Injection** provides ideal power while minimizing fuel consumption. A new electronic four-speed automatic transmission channels power down through the J-Diff** to the wheels. This makes the Ventnor Regent the most technologically sophisticated automobile on the road today. It may not be the fastest car on the road, but when you're driving a Ventnor, you'll never want your drive to end. Just remember: When you're important, people will wait.

So what are you waiting for? Come on down and test drive a Regent today. You can take one home today for the low low price of $32,550. That comes complete with our 5-50 warranty. 5 years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first.

Keep up the good work guys they are looking very good! Or as they might have said in the 80s (and in car related fashion), your cars are looking very clutch!

edit: Also D@mn Asdren! I didn't initially realize that was GIF until I was like "wait a tick, that changed". Props where props are due that is a very cool way to show off a car.

Presenting the Mott Works Omega




This rally inspired soorts car is fast with great handling and is still practical with 4 doors and a true 4 seats. The engine is a 225hp 2L turbo I4 thats puts this power down through all 4 wheels. Even with 4 seats and AWD it is still a fairly light car at 2367lb and it all comes in at a cost considerably lower than the competition.
