281 6th
MPG 27.4 best in class

Style
The front is a bit bland but over all the car looks good, the tail lights are great looking and the chrome work that runs the length of the car are crafted to keep you eyes moving along the sides of the car.

the only Inline 6 and a AWD system helps this one stand out from the crowd

282.6 5th

Style
A good looking sedan with flip up headlights and small sleek tail lights. The extended fairing all the way around do a good job setting it apart from the rest of the pack.

Big styling, the large grill grabs your attention and the body design shouts with all of its being that its a higher class car than its price tag lets on. The issue we had is we were unable to find the fuel door.

14.1 compression but it still managed to run on premium fuel

WES 11 tied for best

Styling

the rear of the car looks European but the front clip looks Asian, this isn’t an issue how ever as they work well and give a unique style while not offending the senses.

WES 11 tied for best

Styling
Bringing something fresh to the market the GK400 has a modern look, smooth, a little sporty flare

A good looking but rather plain car. There’s not much chrome or badges or really anything to let you know you’re getting a flag ship model from ACZ. Don’t get us wrong the front end looks great, the rear design also looks simple but good attention to detail. The car really shines in the driving experience, and that’s why it got the Luxury car of 1992.

Thanks for all the great entries once again, it was fun to see and pick through all of them.
I may do another one later down the road, but life’s got me swapped for the next month or two.
Best regards, lads, lasses, and option threes

I’ll happily take 3rd considering that my entry had progressive steel springs and passive monotube dampers - and still delivered a sufficiently comfortable ride for all the occupants.

But if the third and second-placed cars had identical scores, how did you break the tie between the two?

I made it based off of the price difference, passenger volume and reliability were slightly better on the GK400.

it wasn’t easy most the pros/cons of each of-set each other.

It’d be nice if there was a more in depth breakdown of what stats you were actually looking at and how that score was derived- right now it would be easy to assume that the WES emissions score was the major contender given its the main engineering feature mentioned for both the second and third place entries. It also seems like styling didn’t play a particularly large role in judging? Maxbombe getting 11th with arguably the best looking car in this lineup feels like robbery, especially given that again it seems like the criteria were the emissions requirements.

To be clear, not trying to start a flame war or something; I enjoyed the brief, I just find the judging write-up kind of confusing and opaque.
