Lol the specs are almost exactly the same as my Fuganza (except I would very much like to see the Fuganza ridden hard and put away wet).

Am I the only one with zero sportiness whatsoever? It seems mating a straight-6 to a slushbox might have not been my best idea.

I've got fairly low two digits sportiness, but I've also used an automatic for the added drivability and comfort. Still possible to get close to 200 in the GT Premium market (even with the 30% markup) with an automatic, as sportiness isn't as big a factor to that demographic as other stats.

Am I the only one who opted for an automatic? I thought a Grand Tourer would use that.

Re: The Grand Tourer: 1971 Accepting Entries to the 21st

With so much competition (I mean I haven't a clue for how big such comps can get but this one is big, right?), a significantly different market, vague talk about how well people scored or could score, some waiting and having found a few more points in my car that I didn't catch in my original submission I'm actually starting to worry about this :lol:

I didn't tune for laps so I was kinda banking on points from the desirability/competitiveness to make up for that area (as well as having a fairly powerful engine). As for the cosmetic parts, well with so much comp and varying tastes that one is kinda a crapshoot anyway. You guys have built some very nice looking cars and I bet what's beneath the hood is good too.

I guess the take away is: oh boy this is gonna be good.

I don't think my car is going to fare very well XD. Oh well, this competition got me into the forums. Set up my company thread and everything.
