2005 Family Car Challenge [COMPLETE]

I am having trouble uploading images, but I have something ready. Will try restarting my browser.

Eleanor’s local Canmo sales representative recommends the new 2005 Canmo Kestral SE V6 5 door. At it’s heart is a 3.2L V6 making 247hp powering the front wheels. 60mph arrives in 6.9 seconds, and it gets 22.6mpg, and the hatch makes it very practical. All for $45,100.

That’s a nice job how you integrated the taillights. They’re usually difficult to blend in with the body shapes, but you found a way.
I am still waiting for you to cooperate with Vento who makes brilliant engineering but ugly designs.

The best trick I know to get wrapped tail lights like that is to 3d them at an angle and then drop them at that 2d angle. You can’t move them further but if you get it right and leave it alone, they will wrap around without distortion.

I tried the same trick multiple times on my test mules, and it worked a treat. A more detailed description can be found here.

I use this method with general fiddling - sometimes flipping it vertically or horizontally may allow it to fit the lines better (if you flip horizontally you may have to change up the turn signal and reverse lenses.

2005 Bazard Dakar

The car that’s exactly what most (non-enthusiast) people describe when they describe their ideal car, but which no one will actually buy because they’ve got it in their heads that they “don’t want a minivan”


Just stop lying to yourself and get the car already.
Follow your heart.

What engine does the 2005 Bazard Dakar have?

A 3.5L V6. 178 lb/ft of torque at 4300RPM, and enough low-end torque that it’ll never need to get that high.

2005 Mara Kavaler 2.3 UKE

Large, economical and traditional - and not much else to say really about the third generation of Mara’s large family / premium car.

Here the Universal (wagon) Komfort Extra trim with the ‘small’ 2.3 litre I4 Strybok (‘leap’) engine under the hood.
