Yeah sorry, I’m still learning the basics of engineering. I’ll use your advice for later generations though! Thanks for the help!

Interesting design! I feel like maybe the front side vents could be more spaced out to fill the empty space which makes it look a bit squished in the front bumper area. The rear kind of does it well, but maybe more shaped out exhaust tips and a better shape to flow more would be cooler! But overall it’s pretty nice! You’ve improved since you first uploaded designs here for sure.

This is a worthwhile improvement on your previous designs for sure. However, why do they offer an I6 and a V6 in the same car, when only one of either could do the job of both by being offered in two distinct states of tune? Also, I would prefer wider taillight clusters, to use more of the empty space at the rear and lend it more presence by accentuating the car’s width, and on top of that, a lower ride height, to ensure that it doesn’t get mistaken for a four-door crossover coupe from a distance.

2021 Blaire Albatross Mk. X
The all new entry-level Subcompact from Blaire offers a small fun experience with a hint of premium at an entry-level price. The 2021 Albatross offers the latest and greatest features that fit in it’s price range (Starting MSRP $16,780.00).
The Albatross (Blaire’s main city car and sports car along side the Rodman) is the stylish subcompact that came out all the way back in 1973. When The oil crisis hit and we had to update our entire lineup leading to the Engine Incident of 1974, but that isn’t what the Albatross is about. The Albatross came out in 1973 as a small hatchback in a lineup of big gas guzzlers, and quickly took off. It was different, It was cheap but had qualty, and most importantly it was good on gas. So in the 46 year time period we’ve kept the difference and the cheapness with quality, and we most importantly kept the good gas mileage. Now onto the 2021 Albatross. The Curvy and sort of Blobby rear design alongside the bold sleek lines give for a fairly retro look giving the car style and difference. The side vent design ported onto every Blaire since 2008 gives for a premium look making it have even more style and difference. The Albatross’s the new 2.0L I4 engine pushed out 155hp letting the Albatross soar to 0-60 in 9.55 seconds. The new Automated Parking system will be offered on the new Albatross giving you the ease of having to park around big vehicles from a popular luxury company made by a professor of some kind. We’ve also come out with a new Interior Engine Sound Display (not offered in the MXST
). Which allows you to change what the exhaust sounds like from the interior.
Albatross SE
It wouldn’t be the Albatross without the ol’ SE. introduced in 2001 the SE MX is offered as the cheapest option of the Albatross lineup ($16,780.00) with the same specs as the MX but without the hatch. There’s nothing much to the SE apart from it’s the sedan version of the Albatross, but we guarantee that it offers the same amount of quality as the hatchback.
EV Power!
Now offering to the Albatross lineup the Albatross MEV! The new MEV offers a slower but much more efficient ride. With our new EV tech borrowed over from Alissa Electrics. We have been able to make the updated “silent Chassis” offering higher quality electrics. The Ablatross MEV will be available December 23rd 2020.
Sportiness
The classic Albatross MXST. First offered in 1987 the Albatross MXST has been for the last 20 years the 3rd most expensive MXST Model. It is the 4th fastest model in the MXST category being outran but the Rodman MXST, Ace MXST (the fastest MXST), & the Yute MXST (second fastest MXST). The Albatross MXST is offered with the highest quality cloth/leather and all the options available. The Albatross MXST is also only available in a 3-door style (MX 3-door will not be offered) with a TwinTurbo 3.0L I5 pushing the Albatross MXST to a hefty 0-60 in 5.34 seconds. The Albatross MXST will be available October 22nd 2020.
The all new Albatross comes in 5 trims. . .

This is, by far, the best car you have ever designed, period. I’d go all out and buy (or at least test drive) an MXST if I could.

Thank you! I’ve always had a vision for MXST models. I want them to be the best of the best and typically to be super sporty. Like it was sort of an entirely different company of it’s own, but expect more MXSTs in the future. Especially the Yute since I am really looking forward to making it.
Attention!
Hello Automation Community. I am here to announce that I will be recreating the Blaire Automotive Company thread for a new fresh start. I will be reuploading the Blaire Lynn as it is the most recent vehicle, but I have been considering doing slight tweaks to the Albatross, LaFette & Cahvack so expect that in a Mega Showcase sometime on the new thread. In case you’re wondering why I’m redoing the thread is because it was cluttered with old spam posts from me and so I would like to remake it entirely. I hope you understand and have a good day.
Will a mod please lock this thread please? Thank you.
