CTC - Car Tycoon Challenge #6 - 1955 [RESULTS]

[GenJeFT]

The Wooden Cog Car Company presents the.

RS9001!

The reasonably priced luxury car for the careful buyer of the 1950s.

RS stands for Road Sofa!

The Wooden Cog Car Company also proudly presents the.

Pax Americana!

This car features a 11 liter V8 414HP Marine engine that has been re-tuned for road use. Because why must boats be the only vehicles that get all the POWA! This engine is powerful enough to propel this cars 4400lbs of MERICA to 166 miles an hour! True to its name this car has only 3 colors in it. Those colors are red, white, and blue! The bodywork is a bright and eyecatching red because the color red MUST BE LIBERATED from the dirty communist bastards! The engine is blue because its blue blooded MERICAN engineering! To top it all off all the lights are white including the indicators, because we aint no yellow bellie cowards! All with enough trunk space to fit your biggest guns! Why did we make all this!? Because MERICA! BOOM! (4th of July Fireworks display).

So that’s right! Go ahead and liberate that energy trapped in that old communist dino goo and drive for freedom!

Its the 50s! Yay!

Note* Cars not actually submitted yet, they are finished, I just have not submitted them yet, will be sometime tomorrow.

[Reaper392]

I see HighOctaneLove was going for my old tactic of pricing the car so high that one sale would get a decent profit

[VicVictory]

C’mon all ya lazy pants! Put in your entries! You wouldn’t want me to win by default would you?

[GenJeFT]

My cars RS9001 and Pax Americana are now actually submitted.

[HighOctaneLove]

@Reaper392

I see HighOctaneLove was going for my old tactic of pricing the car so high that one sale would get a decent profit

Yeah, I was replicating a decadent, hand built limo like the Russian Chaika en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaika_%28car%29

I thought it wouldn’t do well but I had no idea it would go THAT badly! (Thanks Der Bayer for letting me withdraw the car )

[xwing]

The new Oravan Vranik is no ordinary car.

Meet the new car category, the supercar!

Win the race on a track, then go home in comfort and style. In the same car. Supercar.

The committee is proud to present the Romanov 8. The number stands for the glorious amount of cylinders and the amount of lives you would need to be able to afford one!

The Romanov Odin is a legend among cars. While it is affordable, it offers surprisingly much comfort and is a reliable companion while you try to maneuver around the holes in the road.

Both cars are available only in black. Because black is beautiful.

Spasibo.

[Weasel]

I finished my development. Here are my entries for this competition:

1. Weasels Prospera 1.5. A small and cheap car for everyone.

2. Weasels Legarus 4.7. An older modell, but real big taxi-style Sedan for middle and large income.

[Sebulba09]

And here are my two fancy Mustaches for the challenge:

1. Mustache Silvercloud
   

   
   
   

2. Mustache SFTC (Small Family Town Car)
   

   
   
   

[PMP1337]

The PMP Bracara 5.2, a large sedan with good equipment.

And the mighty PMP 8600GT. 650hp, 850N.m. A marvel of engineering for men who know what they want.

I’ve just this second sent you my entry, so you can bump that up to 42 cars (assuming I haven’t done anything stupid with the spreadsheet). To mix things up a little I’ve sent in a family car and a superbarge. I was’t really very happy with either of them, so if either of the cars make any profit that would be amazing

[8bs]

Ok, here’s my entries:

The 2 door small car with a soft-top and premium interior.

And a little sport 2 door coupé.

Good luck everyone!

[Slim_Jim]

GMW is proud to present two new vehicles. First is the Bubblegum Pop! A more practical, yet fuel-efficient, low-cost alternative to cars like the Isetta 300. It comes in 6 flavors (colors)! Cool Lemon, Winter Mint, Blueberry Blast, Groovy Grape, Cotton Candy Pink (aka “kinky pinky”), and Marshmallow!

For those of a more affluent persuasion, GMW has the 587 Coupé. The handcrafted aluminum body is complemented with a luxuriously appointed interior. Pink ivory wood trim, sturgeon leather seats, and vicuña wool carpeting create a warm, inviting atmosphere for the well-heeled buyer. Shown are 5 completed cars in the factory, waiting for delivery. Your chariot awaits!

[VicVictory]

I suppose it’s time I post the pictures of my entries.

Here’s the 1955 Ardent Midnight 320 sports coupe, shown in Florida Orange:

177 cubic inches of motor underneath its sleek hood, mated to a 4 speed manual. Performance, Passion, and Price.

And then there’s the 1955 Ardent Starlight 210 sedan, shown here in Gulf Blue.

Motivated by a thrifty 79 cubic inch engine, a 3-speed manual transmission is the only available gearbox for this family mover. Designed to be inexpensive and easy to maintain, but with the standard safety features expected from an Ardent.

[Der_Bayer]

The doors are now closed and the trump cards in the making!

[Reaper392]

Once again I shall apologise for the looks of one of my cars in advance

This time we have not many sports- and supercars but a lot of cheap crap. The results will be published tomorrow!

edit: Because of fairness reasons firegamer3’s cars will be removed from the challenge. They can never make a profit. They are sold so cheap that no imaginable number of cars will be enough because of how the calculations work (higher factory costs with higher production number etc.).
