Too bad the C2 was not the best. Congrats on the win though 
Maybe next time…
Thank you Sebesseg for doing business with us. Also a reminder don’t go too wild just yet now, you still need to break in the car. and never forget the 5 year warranty if you ever encounter any problem, we’ll be happy to help.
[size=50]trivia: the hood scoop is actually a cover for the slightly oversized engine that doesn’t fit under the bonnet.[/size]
now before i continue on, have we agreed/decided on how we will decide the pricing limit from now?
Well, I accidentally created a Jet Fighter. Stick on some wings and you wouldn’t be too far off…
Anyway, GG Koolkei…
[size=50]That was the closest I’ve gotten to winning one of these, so that’s a big Plus.[/size]
Great reviews. I am more than satisfied with the result, since I do not want to host another Round so quickly 
Koolkei, congrats to you, I am eager to see with what you’ll come up with
Koolkei: yeah nah we haven’t yet. Also my senses tell me that a new open beta is imminent, so I think we should put a pause in submissions until then if you’re going to use beta.
But you’re free to devise the rest of the rules.
okay, will try to make the proper car first, then i’ll edit this post. i was hoping i could at least start reviewing the cars by next friday, since i’m free that day, but is that deadline too close?
We at Aques are looking for a fleet of car that replaces one of out current existing and aging car. we are a running a car rental business, but not the normal car rental kind.
we offer our services for the ‘big guys’ in the world.
Your Giant multinational company’s CEO is coming to your country? we have the perfect car for them for the time that they spent here.
you’re a big shot in the entertainment industry? no problem, we have other kinds of cars, perfect for stars
you’re a random joe that just want to feel like a king just for a day? well, why not? we have a whole barrage of cars to pick.
but the one we’re looking to replace is our fleet of hyper Luxury cars for CEO, Ambassadors, and the kind. our car’s are almost 10 years old, although it has gone through some upgrades, a 10 year old car is just not going to hold up to the newest standards, and the used value has already dropped so much, that’s nearly the perfect time to replace the fleet.
now we are spreading an invitation, and asking for a quote of your offer. send us a quote and come to the designated place at the designated time with your offered car.
we are reserving a test track, for testing the cars to it’s limits

]the trim year is 2015
/:m]
]1st of all, this is a luxury car, the number 1 score here is of course the luxury and prestige. we want our customer to be pleased beyond their expectation, we want the car to provide what they want
/:m]
]RWD, FWD, AWD we couldn’t care less, as long it’s up to our expectation. but do note that we want the best of the car to be available on any condition it may encounter.
super blazing heat, a thunderstorm rain, going through a shallow flood, through a Thick fog, anything you could imagine.[size=50](i’ll be looking closely at the transmission tab)[/size]
/:m]
]although, we have highly trained and experienced drivers, we would like a car that helps with their job, driving assists, handling characteristic, and such [size=50](good drivability and just enough sportiness)[/size]
/:m]
]now from the business side, unlike general consumers that usually buys this category of cars. we would prefer a toned down car in performance as long as it could give a significant fuel economy boost. our current car is averaging 16-17MPG, we would like if the new car could do roughly 20MPG [size=85](8.5km/l - 11.6L/100km)[/size]
but not too much performance, we still need the power occasionally, like when the customer is late for a flight and need to ‘go for it’ to the airport or something/:m]
] we usually now use premium 95(RON) octane fuel, since 91 isn’t getting mas much out of the engine, and 98 is expensive if not also uncommon. so we expect the car is tuned, or at least, re-tuned to used 95 RON thank you.
/:m]
] again, because business, reliability is key, and running cost is the keyhole [size=50]hehehe[/size]
/:m]
]have at least 4 doors and 4 nice seats. maybe 5 seats, but that adds unnecessary cost that we don’t like, except if it’s really worth it in some way
/:m]
]styling is, well, not as important. we do have our expectation of what a luxury car might look like though, certainly nothing sporty or such.
/:m]
]we expect the price to be up to $50,000 per car with your profits already included. but we sill pick the best for our money if it turns out that the best is priced at $45k or something like that.
/:m]
]edit: safety, never forget safety. safety kills [size=50]less[/size]/:m][/ul]
that’s it i guess. deadline is 7th April 2016
You’re allowed to make the deadline closer! It may make things easier for you, too.
Open Beta or regular?
If beta, what to do with new factory tabs? (it might be logical to say full quality, limited number etc.) or are we talking estimate price?
I’d prefer non-beta 
I’m asumming it doesn’t matter what percentage profits we take then? I think I might have sometime in mind…
Also, I’d prefer non-beta too, but I don’t mind changing if necessary.
i think we kinda agreed on open beta right? and that’s what i’m using.
and DO NOT TOUCH a single factory tab. just use the ‘estimated price’, as it’s relatively easier to judge.
Koolkei, what’s the recommended fuel type?
^ i knew i was forgetting something(again). it’s added now
Are emissions important?
Cool cool, Open Beta it is!
We at Storm Automotive have done Luxury cars before. We’ve also done sportscars before, and we’ve dabbled in the extreme high end of hypercars. In this one car, we’ve tried to put a wheel in each world.
Meet the Storm Guardian.
Outside, we’ve kept things clean. This is a luxury car to the core, but we’ve decided, rather than wasting money on fiddly bits of chrome or chrome-plated plastic that just fall off the car through wear and tear, we’d pour the money straight into the part of the car you’ll see the most, the interior.
Inside, things get interesting. All leather seating for five people, with active sound-suppression, helps keep the business meeting in, and the noise outside where it belongs: Outside. It only works to a certain amount of reduction, but it’s enough to cut down on noisy traffic giving you a headache. The driver’s seat looks over a leather-finished dashboard with all-digital gauges on a rapid-refresh 240hz display. The display itself can be switched from pure-digital to “digi-log” gauges using the center console 19" touchscreen, where all the other functions of the car can be found. Climate control is provided through a surprisingly-powerful Air Conditioning unit for cooling, and hybrid electric coils/heater core for heating. Why? Because you shouldn’t be hot when you want to be cold, and you shouldn’t have to wait to be hot when you don’t want to be cold. The two front bucket seats are heated and air conditioned, and the rear bench seat has triple-zone heating/cooling to better provide comfort to all passengers in this car. Radio is AM/FM/Satellite, along with CD/DVD/Blu-Ray player (Movie mode is locked out with the car out of park), MP3 player with 256GB of solid state storage (with expansion bay to increase storage space using conventional 2.5" drives), and Bluetooth connectivity for up to five separate cell-phones at the same time. A very primitive Heads-Up Display shows your current speed at the base of the windshield, and we hope in the future to expand on this technology. If you’re ever truly bored in this car, try counting the speakers, because we’ve managed to hide 21 of them inside your car. Some were hidden better than others, and no, the two subwoofers under the back seat do not count. The center console, behind the gear stick, has room for media, four cupholders, and plenty of storage compartments. For the rear seats, the center console provides an additional four cupholders. There are plenty of 12 volt power ports as well as USB ports, and even two 120 volt power sockets. (Note: in countries where mains power is 220 or 240 volts, an appropriate set of sockets and a more powerful inverter will be supplied as appropriate.)
The powertrain of the Guardian is a technological wonder. A V12 with 4 valves per cylinder rests beneath the hood. Packing VVT and VVL, this Direct Injected 8.2 liter beast makes sufficient horsepower without trying to break everyone’s neck using turbochargers. A big car should have a big engine, but a big engine doesn’t have to weigh so much, and ours saves weight by using AlSi construction, both block and head, keeping the car’s total weight down and making the horsepower and torque that much more apparent. With plenty of V12 fury at the crank threatening to tear the car apart at the seams, the transmission had to be above-average to begin with, and we think our choice was the best one: Push the raw fury of the V12 straight into a torque converter and out through a nine-speed automatic transmission. With a sport mode, this automatic will let you take over and paddle-shift between gears, for that sprint to the airport, or an important meeting in 15 minutes when you’re 20 minutes away. That brutal power is channeled to all four wheels through electronically controlled differentials, with center and rear capable of full lockup under maximum acceleration, making sure no power is lost. Downside of using the car in that fashion, there is a small amount of tire-chirping that may happen in the most aggressive circumstances. In standard mode, the automatic behaves as you would expect, carefully picking the right gear for the job. Step on it hard, and it’ll downshift until it finds the right gear to give you everything it can. Keep a light foot, and it’ll try to keep one gear ahead of you. If you’re desperate for fuel efficiency, select Eco mode and the transmission will happily try to pick the highest available gear within the engine’s most efficient range.
Tires are always a hard choice. Too hard, they hurt the handling. Too soft, they burn out too fast. We used a compromise tire, a medium compound, giving the best blend of handling and lifespan. 19" magnesium rims hold the tires, providing enough room for our 400mm carbon-ceramic brake disks. Yes, hypercar technology helps bring the Guardian to a halt, without giving up partway through, even when you’re thrashing the car.
The aerodynamics were easy for us. Fully clad undertray is somewhat a standard, we’ve been doing that for ages. Electronically controlled cooling vents shut off airflow when the car doesn’t need it, improving fuel efficiency. Careful wind-tunnel testing optimized the airflow over the body of the car, minimizing drag from wind resistance.
Driver assists are crucial in controlling a car like this. Some are almost essential these days, like Power Steering and Anti-Lock Brakes. Some, like Traction Control and Stability Assistance, are grand gifts to have, making it less likely that the car ends up off of the road. Launch control is there for dusting the idiot at the street light who insists on revving his fart-box in your ear. And, if by some chance, you have an accident in this car, we’ve got you covered with the latest-and-greatest technologies to keep you safe. Airbags, padding, recessed controls, side-curtain airbags, auto-tensioning seatbelts, fuel-pump-cutoffs, automatic fire-suppression in the engine bay, trunk, and fuel tank, and even main-power-cutoff to prevent electrical fires.
Suspension is handled with Active springs, tuned to comfort. Why? Because we wanted to give the best possible ride, yet still be able to drop into a sportier feel only capable with electronics. Semi-active dampers, linked into the same central computer system, also take care of the rough stuff while providing a ride so smooth that a cup of coffee in the cupholder won’t spill, no matter how rough a road* you drive on.
If you’re looking for a high-performance luxury car, the Guardian should be your choice.
*Note: Guarantee void if driven off-road.
(May have gone a little overboard with the advert, but I felt creative with this one.)

So, you’re looking for a new reliable luxury fleet vehicle? Look no further than the newest product from Ventnor:
The Viceroy!
[attachment=2]Ventnor - Viceroy-1.png[/attachment]
[attachment=1]Ventnor - Viceroy-2.png[/attachment]
[attachment=0]Ventnor - Viceroy-3.png[/attachment]
The Viceroy is more than just a luxury car, it marks the return of a legend from a bygone era. A staple from Petoskey Motors that has not been seen for nearly twenty four years. The proud return of the legendary Petoskey 261 inline six. Dating back to the company’s founding in 1940, the 261 has established a legacy of rugged dependability. Updated with the latest in technological developments, the 261 now features remarkable efficiency coupled with decent output, impeccable smoothness, and solid reliability. However, a Ventnor is more than merely what is under the hood. The latest in infotainment technology is at your fingertips and voice command. The new Vehicle Multifunction Display (VMD) allows those in the car access to radio functions, a new VentnorTech web browser, climate control, and GPS. The seats feature built in screens to allow passengers in the back full access to internet, radio, and individual climate controls. In addition each unit is capable of supporting headphones allowing each passenger their own choice of radio options. The discerning buyer shall wish for nothing beyond the luxury of four bucket seats available in soft leather of impeccable quality meeting the standards at Ventnor that we all know by now refuse to allow compromise. Returning to the mechanical side, you will find a tried and true six-speed automatic transmission sending power from the engine to the J-Diff in the back. Power is then easily planted to the 20-inch alloy wheels with minimal spin. The electronic ActiveComfort springs coupled with a double wishbone suspension easily handle any kind of rough roads. Most drivers and passengers are unaware when the car is driven on dirt roads courtesy of the exceptionally smooth ride offered in the Viceroy. Safety has always been a priority for Petoskey Motors, and the Viceroy is no different. State-of-the-art airbag and crash restraints originally developed for NASA are standard in this vehicle. The inertia controlled Contingency Fallback feature automatically disables the fuel pump and disconnects the ignition in the event of a crash. Temperature switches in the trunk, under the hood, near the fuel tank, and in the passenger compartment provide feedback to the Multi-Vector Fire Suppression system at all times. When extreme temperatures are detected, the system makes sure an accident doesn’t become a disaster. Of course the best way to handle an accident is to avoid it outright. The Viceroy is equipped with the latest Traction Control, ABS, and Dynamic Stability Control to ensure that you are always in control. Perhaps one of the biggest perks is the low service costs of the vehicle. While the powertrain is not the most complex system developed, the advantages come with reliable operation and low costs to operate. Your fleet will also see considerable savings as the Viceroy averages 22.2 mpg*. This remarkable example of automotive exceptionalism can be your for the low price of $48,405**

Diamond Automotive would like to showcase a near-production prototype for Aques that will be built to specifications should it be selected…
So here is the 2015 Diamond Aques Gold! We should first state that this is a model that we produce as a limousine, and this prototype is outfitted with the Aques specifications and will be built to-order for your company.
Let’s start with the business side of it: each example as outfitted can be sold for $48,685 with a 7% profit on our end. We keep the profit margin low to offer the best deal for fleet buyers and we recognise the value of advertising such companies provide. By offering a quality vehicle, your customers might end up ordering their own model.
Now, on to the specifications…
As you can see, we went with an SUV body for the largest amount of passenger and cargo space, as well as the rugged nature of the vehicle. It is an aluminium unibody with AHS steel frame on active front double wishbone and rear multilink suspension, providing the optimal balance of comfort and performance. It has a 4x4 system outfitted with a manual locker and a 28 cm ride height to ensure that it can cover any road, no matter how rugged, and this also makes it a more than adequate off-roader, should the need arise. We can provide armoured variants, should you have the need for them, at a premium. If you are interested, we can discuss the armouring specifications and give you an estimate.
Moving on to the drivetrain, under the hood you will find a 6.3L, 60 valve DOHC naturally aspirated V12 producing 391 hp at 5500 rpm and 436 ft-lb of torque at 3700 rpm. The engine reliability index is at an excellent 83, so the regular maintenance is all you should expect to have done for the lifecycle of the vehicle in your fleet. It runs on 95 RON gasoline and, when paired to the 9 speed automatic transmission, achieves a respectable 21.3 mpg. Not bad for a V12 pulling over 2 tonnes.
0-100 km/h is done in 8.3 seconds, top speed is 242.7 km/h, and it will brake from 100 km/h in 40 meters with vented disc rotors. It rides on 22" magnesium wheels, offering both prestige and performance, while the hard compound tires gave the optimal blend of comfort and performance we believe you’re looking for.
Exterior specifications include LED running lights and maximum performance laser headlights, fog lamps, retractable running boards for easy entry and exit that operate automatically when opening and closing doors, rear suicide doors, twin rear moonroofs, combination antenna, and this model is outfitted with our high gloss pearl white paint. You can of course order it in any colour, we can even mix a custom hue for your company.
Finally, we move on to the inside. The driver’s compartment is all hand-made and includes only the finest of luxury infotainment systems with GPS as well as all available driving assists. Top of the line safety systems are included, of which you can get more information in the brochure. These include pre-collision systems that react faster than any human can to hopefully avoid a collision.
The passenger compartment features two power operated aircraft-style first class seats with full reclining, heating, air conditioning, and massage. Of course, it is all hand made. The interior is mostly made of wood, leather, wool carpeting, and aluminium trim. The colours and materials can be modified to your specifications, as do the passenger comforts and seating arrangements, but we believe the cream leathers and carpetting with light burl wood and polished aluminium offer a pleasantly airy feel that pairs well with the pearl white. Passenger comforts include a refrigerator, TVs, AM/FM Satellite radio, CD, Blu-Ray, and MP3 media system with built in hard drive and 21 speakers, on-board internet and mobile hotspot. There are retractable tables for business use with conventional power outlets, as well as a power operated divider between the passengers and driver. Curtains are outfitted to the windows for additional privacy, while the moon roofs can be covered. Lamps are provided in all convenient locations, while ambiant lighting with adjustable colour is also available. We made sure to use the best possible sound insulation, including noise cancelling speakers, for the comfort of the passengers. There is over 1 cubic meter of cargo volume available behind the seats for any luggage. What you get is a full limousine for two VIPs disguised as a somewhat standard SUV.
As this is the Gold trim level, simply the best is offered, but we also have Silver and Bronze trims that offer more conventional passenger seating and varying levels of comfort for significantly lower prices, should you be interested. We hope Aques finds the Diamond Aques Gold more than adequate for its fleet needs, as we strive to offer the best in terms of comfort, prestige, and safety with excellent drivability and more than adequate sportiness and off-road capabilities. Reliability is guaranteed to be excellent, but should something go wrong, we offer an unlimited warrantly for as long as you might decide to keep these vehicles in your fleet.
