Round One - Part One
Richard began by doing research. He bought a copy of every major motor magazine that he could. He began skimming these reviews, and slowly starting to sort out what he wanted to drive.
@Abg7 - DiMarino La Spezia
“…Excellent Performance doesn’t outweigh the high cost of maintaining the car, and the cheap looks don’t help it either.”
@Der_Bayer - BAM Moenis 126
“…Well rounded performer that doesn’t stand out compared to the stiff competition in the class.”
@Asami - Cattaneo Viara V12 Duepi
“…Woeful fuel economy, and high price to service, alongside the less-than-stellar sport feel doesn’t help the car at all.” (Disqualified due to falling outside the maximum allowed price)
@BoostandEthanol - Keika Triumph
“…The Less than perfect Safety and Sport feel keep this golden monster from being more than adequate for its class”
@th3maldonado - Bramhall Valiant VS-Ti
“… With a horrid ride comfort, high cost of upkeep, and difficulty to drive, the stellar looking Valiant is unable to be a solid competitor in the class.”
@DoctorNarfy - Shromet Levine
“…The Imposing Levine shines in Luxury and Comfort, however fails to live up to the sporty wants of the opposition”
@VicVictory - Keystone M51 Decimus
“… a good balance between sport and comfort, it is able to find its footing compared to the opposition.”
@Marcus_gt500 - Orchid Gisa
“…The Gisa is unable to overcome the sub-par comfort to shine where it counts.”
@B1ill4Hard8in1 - Hammerstein Laginappe Grand Tour
“… The rather undesirable fuel economy figures, low crash ratings, and being less Reliable than it’s competition hampers the competitiveness of the Laginappe.”
@Conan - Tishillyman Conan Spita
“… Low Comfort and Difficulty to drive compared to competition are unable to outweigh the dependability of the Spita.”
@MrChips - Scagliati Veneto 4800i
“… The Dangerously Unstable Reliability, and high cost to maintain sour an otherwise incredible machine.”
@TheAlmightyTwingo - Meijer San Marino Rapido-12
“… A uncomfortable ride and less than acceptable sport feeling harm an otherwise interesting machine.”
@Mikonp7 - EcaMobile Chipleader 1990
“… The Ease of driving combined with the excellent practicality are able to outweigh the lack of comfort, but a lower safety rating does need cause to worry.”
@Camjkerman - Vanguard Meteor Mr540i
“… It does nothing to stand out from the competition, but doesn’t fall behind its competition either.”
@Goblin95 - Kasai A600 Ara Royal
“… Able to Ride comfortably, quickly, and in style places it above the competition. Low cost to service and repair is a solid bonus.”
@Jaimz - FM Trailway GT
“… An excellent drive and comfort let down by the lack of sport feel, and less than desirable looks.”
@Private_Miros - PMI Minerva deGand Mk.IV L
“… Another excellent car let down by lack of sport feel, outright performance, and fuel economy.”
@Saddiseased - Berkely Devon
“… A well-rounded car which falls down in fuel economy, safety scores, and top end speed.”
@TheTom - AMW Kestrel
“… The Rear Engine ends up with an unsafe, hard to maintain, and unreliable mess of high performance insanity.”
@Xepy - Griel Arondight 6.4
“… Very well rounded, high performance car let down slightly by the underwhelming sport feel despite the performance.”
@Flamers - FP-Voluptas Sport Premium
“… Good performing machine that is let down by the looks and lower sport feeling compared to its rivals.”
@Tea_Pawt - Farina
“… Difficulty to drive, lack of comfort, and less than great fuel economy cause the Farina to fall flat despite its other characteristics.”
@HighOctaneLove - Bogliq Enthuse ASCAR (UK Spec)
“Who let an ASCAR in here? … Oh… It’s Not very comfortable. Not Very Economical. Not Very Safe, but good lord if it isn’t bulletproof.”
@Chickenbiscuit - LMC Scylla S
“… Low comfort doesn’t sour the otherwise well performing Scylla.”
