Does this mean we can use a basic chassis (which is a visibility setting)?
Yes.
Would Richard pick a real “American” V8 land barge with a french name, or a Canadian turbo droptop with a pretentious suffix?
Fowler Baltimore 360 Versailles or Swanson 217 GTO, what a dilemma. Good thing both are equally

I thought this was a car challenge, not a yacht challenge.
You know better than me, but I do know from watching american sealife documentaries that sometimes, you need a bigger boat.
1992 WM Welland
(overwriting an earlier version of this model, made in the pre-techpool days)
A true four-seat premium convertible, starting from just $16,000 in its most basic form.
Its 3.0L I6 delivers 210 horsepower to the back wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox (four-speed automatic optional).
The SE (Sport Enhanced) option package adds high-performance tires and a limited-slip differential, while the LP (Luxury Package) adds a fully automatic soft top, CD player, passenger side airbag, and traction control.
Even with both option packages fitted, the '92 WM Welland costs no more than $20,000. So what are you waiting for? Drop the top, get some friends on board and hit the gas to find out!
(Note: Trim submitted is 3.0 base model without either option package.)

Hello, just in case i forgot to DM anyone, i havent received anything illegal. About 2 days left!
Also, apparently we are nearing 40 entries! That’s gonna be a lot of eliminating after the 1st round.
I’ll do all i can but its a new record so far, so recording the video will be a lot of work. I might have to delay it by a day or so, but again, i’ll do all i can!
1992 Kamaka Decimal XS Speedster Concept
The result of a ragtag skunkworks team of engineers from Kamaka’s XS Performance division; using the base of the new Decimal kei sports car, the team has made it into an absolute monster by chopping the roof off and swapping in a 1.3 liter motorcycle engine. Safe to say that it doesn’t qualify as a kei car anymore, or possibly a road car, or anything that can be realistically made…
But it is cool as hell.

suffer.
Its going to be a battle of the ages, Barney vs Drip Car.
24 hours to go until the deadline!
Since i cant rate my own cars on styling, i’ll have to send the one car i made here. Make sure to rate it!
Meet the DAW Sparrow, for those wanting something truly special for a non-special price.
Powered by a 1.8L I4 most definitely not taken from one of our cars that we just had laying around, it goes to 60 in 6.6 seconds. Weighs only 1100kg too, so it’s perfect for driving around a track (or on a road at illegal speeds). (Note that the screen is just so i have a substitute for the dash.)

I HATE THIS THING SO DAMN MUCH PLEASE JUST KILL IT
Its slow too. 0-60 in 9.5 seconds or something like that. Note that its built on a delorean body, and its front-engined. Dunno how it messed it up so badly.
Might make better pictures tommorow but im way too tired. About… 8 hours left?
After seeing the Sparrow, I noticed why its front end is so familiar… It has the same headlight treatment as my EMR EX8, which in turn resembles a first-gen Lotus Elise/Exige - although those did not debut until 1995 and 2000, respectively, well after the year in which this challenge is set. But with the EX8 being front-engined, it’s more reminiscent of a TVR Griffith, whereas my other entry, the WM Welland, brings to mind the W124 E-Class and E36 3-Series convertibles (big atmo I6 up front driving the rear wheels, multilink rear suspension, and space for four full-sized adults).
And entry #2…
1992 Kiyume Tomcat 2 ZingR RPR Edition
Take one Kiyume Tomcat 2.
Select the ZingR sports model.
Hand over to RPR tuning house.
???
Profit!
The RPR edition of the Kiyume Tomcat 2 ZingR features a completely revised bodyshell, with its racing inspired design covering a high-revving 1.6L DOHC v6 engine that can accelerate this ex-Kei car in an unbelievable fashion.

Phantom Striker GT
Get yourself the least most american car on the market!
Rear engine, rear wheel drive, 3 liter turbo V6, 345hp and 1300kg weight, all this will shoot you to 62mph in 3.8 seconds, however make sure not to crash, unless you wish to become one with the car
Phantom Limo Shitmobile
Honestly, what am i even supposed to say about this?
7 meters long, 7 seats, it has a very american pushrod 7.3 liter v8, what isn’t american however is the turbocharger strapped to it, pushing 480hp, which sounds like a lot until you find out it weighs 3000kg.
Despite all this it still drives well (for a 90’s limo), and gets to 62mph in a whopping 6 seconds.
Did i mention that it has a damn pool inside it?
???
WUDDAHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL OHHMAGAWWWD NOOOOOOWAAAAAAYYAYAYYYYY THE GAWDDAMN TOILEEEEEET HOOD ORNAMENT IT’S ALL CHROOOOOME
I have now closed entries! Of all the cars i just received, none of them are illegal.
Note that i will still allow entries for those who have proof of having a car but being unable to submit it, and those i gave special permission.
Btw, im pretty sure we hit 50 entries or we are near it! I don’t know how though, i got you guys to thank for it.
Now we wait. I’ll try to get the first video out tomorrow, which will probably be the eliminations only because that’ll be just as much as a normal video. Dont expect it honestly though, because the amount of stuff i have to drive is crazy lmao
Take your time!
