Good to know, I will use them all on negative quality points.

I like it, very bold.
It should look like this in your game before you try to submit it.

Okay. BTW, since I didn’t want to outright copy anyone else, I ended up picking that early '60s Cortina body; I know it’s technically a two door(it does seat 5 people, though!), but would you mind if we counted my submission as a 4 door, just for the purposes of this competition?
Fun fact. The term ‘Family Saloon’ does not determine the number of doors, just as the term Sedan doesn’t mean a car has 4 doors, but instead has to so with the design of the car.
Vic submitted a 2-door Sedan as his Family Saloon. Conan submitted a Wagon.
If it seats 4 or more, you are good.
For fun, Wikipedia
[quote]Several versions of the body style exist, including four-door, two-door and fastback variants of both.
A sedan seats four or more people and has a fixed roof that is full-height up to the rear window. The roof structure will typically have a fixed B-pillar on sedan models. Most commonly it is a four-door; two-door models are rare, but they do occur (more so historically). In the U.S., the term sedan has been used to denote a car with fixed window frames, as opposed to the hardtop style without a “B” pillar and where the sash, if any, winds down with the glass. However, true hardtops have become increasingly rare.
Four-door sedans can have either two or three side windows: One in each door (vent windows not counted), and the possible third integrated in the “C”-pillar.[/quote]

Okay, thanks. One more thing: do we just post our submissions on the board, or do you want the LUA file first before approving them?

Any order if fine, but I recommend PMing the LUA files to avoid corporate espionage.

I kinda like NOT knowing the scoring formula, it makes the field more diverse IMO since they arent all following the same “recipe”. On the other hand it is very frustrating not knowing roughly how my car has fared.
I feel the same way Blasters, by not knowing the formula, you need to build by feel, rather than min-max. I am liking the spread of cars this time around, very diverse engine platforms and lots of different handleing vehicles.
That new body is a great looker. Given I was building something British, I wanted to go for the old Jag body, but then decided I simply had to use the US sedan.
I’ve got no idea how I’ll do, but this will be the first time I actually attempt to strike a good balance, as opposed to “maybe I can squeeze out a few hundred more HP while fitting the regulations”. Thus, in my fictional history, this is Armada’s attempt at penetrating the international car market with something with broad appeal… though they still like a bit of sportiness in there. It’s early days yet, but even back here they’ve been fervent pioneers of overhead cam tech, hence this one is a 12v SOHC V6.
The Belford was designed to comfortably seat 4, keep a fairly cracking pace but also have excellent mileage, all without burning a hole in your pocket (hopefully). The secret here was, Armada planned to make a much more brutal muscle car as a proof of concept of their developing 3-valve per cylinder SOHC system. It is rumoured that the 2.4L V6 was replaced by a ridiculously large 8.0L V8 that cranked out over 500hp, and that the car needed specially designed super wide tyres to prevent them from instantly vaporising… and thus Armada’s decade long love affair with the oversized block blossomed.

That’s not looking like the right naming scheme, fellow goon. Seems better than mine though.
Except you used the wrong entertainment and exhausts.

Fixed it I think.
Did you fix the other issue and send it to lordred via pm?
