The Car Shopping Round (Round 64): Tears in Heaven

A young business exec starting his giant leap forward into his career? Look no further than the Ventnor Regent.



The 1985 model year sees exciting new changes for this beautiful automobile. Bringing back a legend from the sixties the Regent now sports a new modern 301 Triforce V8 good for 330 hp.
For that extra flair go for the Landau version.


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.

[size=150]Presenting: the 1985 Daiki X-85[/size]







The car’s name stands for “eXperimental car, (19)85”, but the car managed to make it into the production without a name change since it was reviewed very positively in 1981’s Tokyo Motor Show, where it was first displayed.

The car’s exterior, the interior, and elsewhere was designed with both luxury and sportiness in mind. The luxury part comes with visible cutting-edge electronic engineering while the sportiness part’s electronic engineering is not visible as a driver, but can be felt while driving.

The car is priced at just under $32000, a manageable price for the most.

Sebesseg will it count how the car is produced (how our factory tabs are set)?

I believe what you are calling factory tabs I called engineering tabs. You are free to do whatever you want with the new tabs added by the Beta (I’m not honestly sure if that data even exports correctly). If you mean the one present under the detail tab, well I never set a rule for that though it seems most kept it at medium 2.

As far as the character is concerned, I didn’t say it would make a difference in preferences so it wont.

Does that answer your question or did I misunderstand it?


Just a reminder/note I currently have cars from:
-Vri404
-Madrias
-Sillyducky
-Carskick
-Rcracer11m
-DoctorNarfy
-HighOctanceLove
-Urbanliner
-Asdren

If you don’t see your name, I don’t have a PM or car from you. This is merely a reminder for people who have sent their car or thought they sent it. If you thought you sent it, but don’t see your name then send it again. There is still plenty of time to make a car and submit it.

We are talking about same tabs yes :slight_smile: I just discovered that cutting it factory quality and so saves a lot of money on final cost. You did answer my question, thanks, my entry will be in pm soon.

BOOM!


Pure facts:
Na alu V8, 400Nm, 300Hp, 0-100 in 3.8 sec, 4 x double wishbone, alu body, air suspension for flexibility and presence, sport alcantara interior with premium sound system and lap times to shame sports cars.

EDIT: where’s the auto correct when you need it… it’s them not then on the poster.

EDIT2:

is it just me or it’s intended to look like it’s giving a middle finger?

@Koolkei: Lol, yup I see that. I think its intentional.

Hey hey no pointing fingers…

I noticed today when I was reviewing what I have written thus far with what people have said about their vehicles here to make sure it meshes nicely and isn’t just wild speculation that pricing is off. I took a second look and its not isolated. So would those of you who haven’t posted a screenshot of your final market screen do so? Also to those of you who are going to submit do so as well.

I didn’t make a rule about it, but this is for convenience & fairness in relation to price checking. I don’t believe that the factory/engineering tab data is being exported or imported correctly; either because it’s not been implemented to do so or because I’m doing something wrong. The overview tab stats seem to be working just fine, but the market price on my end seems to vary quite a bit from what people are stating it should be or is differing from their screenshots.

For instance, Madrias’ screenshot has his/her vehicle priced at “$32,442 (+5%)” while on my screen its “$34,290 (+5%)”. This is just a single example. Posting a screenshot of what your final market price is will help me out to make sure I don’t think someone has gone over budget when they really haven’t. In the mean time I will try to see if I’ve done something wrong and for those that have yet to submit please continue to follow the rules as set and change the factory/engineering tabs to your heart’s content while staying competitive.

Here is the price for my Omega

Sounds like some kind of issue with the data being exported. Here’s my price (and markets)

“Show people what you REALLY think…” Shows Tailights :laughing:

reminds me a lot of a GMC cyclone other than that.

Since my entry isn’t open beta, I’ll have to withdraw from this competition.

Are entries from Stable Release accepted? (If so - Frankenstein Automotive has one, if not - ignore it :smiley: )

I may not be able to prove the cost, as my vehicle was deleted, and I may be having the same issue on my end.

Sorry 'bout that.
