Okay, i have received 20 entries. @Ornate @lordvader1 @findRED19 send me your cars until tomorrow.
Those should be enough 
, I won’t be taking any new participants.
I’ll start checking all the entries tomorrow and I hope there won’t be a lot of issues, since the rules were rather simple.
Also, entries that are valid can not be modified from this point on.
I had to correct an error on challenge 7 and i had a new idea, so i also added challenge 8.
Sounds good, good luck going through the entrants!
So lets see how the convertible version of a sedan from an austrian budget car manufacturer does in 'murica
(and please tell me it’s not the slowest car in the lineup ;D )
Since I didn’t have the time to make a proper ad (and am unlikely to have such this week), I might as well share some more numbers about the Howler Pegasus RSF for those interested.
Not sure how the 258g/kWh ends up translating into the same 9l/100 that HighOctaneLove’s supervan gets with 395,4g/kWh but the 6,6l/100km cruise consumption sounds fair enough.
I’m rather interested in seeing how my full size truck will do. On paper it looks a tad weak in some areas, but we shall see. I’m still pleased with how it came out though I realized that the massive bed just killed the truck’s departure angle.

…And I never forgot to tell you about the solid axle rear end with McPherson strut front suspension with rims that are totally larger than 18" and all the money we put into the most advanced-est safety ever… And did I mention we totally did not copy the Ford Mustang…
###…And that is not a team of lawyers that are fast-walking towards me right now because we stole --not, we did not-- Ford designs…
Well it looks like most people submitted wagons and hatchbacks with tons of cargo space while my car can probably carry some golf clubs at best… I just know there’s gonna be one practicality challenge that’s gonna kill me, hopefully I can make it up on the rest 
And everyone with their maxium powaaah machines and the likes, and I’m like “what car would James May pick?”
Mine doesn’t even have 300 hp… but it goes well over 200 km/h and does the 0-100 in about 6.4 seconds. It’s a quite realistic sporty wagon for the middle/upper-middle class, really 
Mine’s one that I would take a road trip with. That was the only criteria I looked at when designing it, and I’m the guy who would road trip a classic muscle car for the experience.
I would take the classic muscle car over the modern one for the experience almost every time. So, American Muscle FTW!

KHT Restomod Workshop is proud to present a 1957 KHT Monaco, updated and upgraded and running a 6.3 liter Syron Karion v8f engine swap on 5 spd manual on full luxury interior. THAT is how you Grand Tour in style 
that turbo setup doesn’t seem optimal enough.
it doesn’t deliver enough power, OR more efficiency
@HowlerAutomotive when you’re going for fuel efficiency, lower total weight trumps engine efficiency.
you could have a 40% efficiency engine and put it in a 2 ton car, it will be beaten by a 1 ton car with a 18% efficiency engine
yea, could have made it NA with about the same efficiency and power if I think about it now … I was in a rush to get the last entry in 
also I’m way under budget with $16.500 estimated price but thats intentionally for the roleplay aspect - Frankenstein Automobile is a budget manufacturer, we don’t have those 400hp powerhouses. didn’t think everyone is going for power though 
pretty sure you can borrow engines from other manufacturers for a swap
agreed, our crate engine sales could provide you with that. join the huge inline4 club
fun fact: even with so many quality sliders abuse, my engine end up only costing roughly the same as a v12 with barely any QS.
No thanks, I had a few contract V8F Syron’s lying around the factory. Thank god I did not decide to Sepang treat the thing, it’s got too much wheelspin already
haha, it would actually be a downsizing if you do though. nearly half the displacement and add BOOST!
Come to think of it, I got a 1.8L i4 turbo available from ManHell, also contracted. But who GT’s in an i4? I am here to prove that waxed moustache a bowler hat and a v8 is how you travel across these here United States of USA
and here i am a newcomer from asia coming to prove that wrong 
And Luke, the somewhat-crazy robotic CEO from Storm Automotive, trying to show that it’s entirely possible, so long as your I4 provides plenty of fun and no turbo lag.
