BINS

@Ch_Flash - Marinet Milou CC

Doesn’t pass WES10 (emissions are only at WES9). More importantly, it’s way over the budget at $32100.

@iastr_0 - Kodori Hasty C

Front plate is resized (x0.9). If this was the only rule infraction it would just have received a penalty, but it also uses unleaded 98 fuel instead of unleaded 95.

@Ritz - Norrsken Equus Sportster 1.8

Doesn’t pass WES10 (emissions are only at WES9).

…?
Oh well, something probably went wrong during the import, good luck everyone else

Edit with emmissons screen aswell:

At least yours was the game messing up and not yourself. I forgot to make a new engine variant when messing around with the car for Beam..before I submitted it. Because now my QFC entry suddenly makes 129hp instead of 112.
Whoops.
Can’t wait to see how everyone else’s entries stack up tho

This is what it looks like on my end:

Emissions optimization is set to 4 instead of 5.

I tried deleting the car and redownloading it to check if I accidentally changed it, but it’s still at 4.

Are you sure you sent the right file?

Ritz · 15 July 2025 12:01

I downloaded and imported it again and for me it is still correct.

However 1, the car gave me lua errors when opening it and 2, I changed to 2 seats instead of 2+2 to check if you’d accidentally forgot to switch back after checking the comfort and when I switched back to 2+2 the car suddenly became $200 more expensive thus putting me over budget for some dumb reason.

So needless to say, there seems to be some weirdness with this car for some reason.

RESULTS

Points go from 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst car and 100 being the best. The closer you are to 100 the better your car is.

9 - @xsneakyxsimx - Ascot Skiagusta (0.00 pts)

An SUV is a bold move, you probably expected to place last. It has the best enviromental resistance but also the worst fuel economy and safety. Most stats are below average. It’s also one of two cars with a detachable top.

8 - @DuceTheTruth100 - Wells i4-HTC (16.12 pts)

A mostly average entry that doesn’t excel in any stat. It suffers from having the worst reliability and service costs over $1000.

7 - @AndiD - Mara Apogee 2.0 KEH42 (32.31 pts)

The cheapest entry by some margin, it’s not the best at anything but it places high in comfort and reliability. It’s the most practical 2-seater, but still not great. Unfortunately, having a detachable top and just 2 seats makes it less desirable.

6 - @mart1n2005 - Courageux Melodie CC 1.6XS (42.69 pts)

This 2-seater has the highest sportiness and fuel economy. Service costs are also good but otherwise it’s a bit average, with drivability and practicality being its main weak points.

5 - @bang6111 - Katami Yuzu (55.49 pts)

High drivability, comfort and practicality but terrible enviromental resistance. Front tires are wider than the rear which is kinda weird and an unnecessary increase of service costs.

4 - @Knugcab - Saarland Felina II 1.8 (59.60 pts)

Worst drivability and comfort but strong stats everywhere else. It has the best safety and service costs are the second best in the challenge. It also looks quite good.

3 - @vero94773 - Akari Passion LC (71.09 pts)

It has the highest drivability and reliability, very strong in the top priorities. Design, fuel economy and SVC are also good. It loses points for being a 2-seater as well as having low sportiness and the lowest practicality.

2 - @the-chowi - Billancourt Mirage CrossTop (72.82 pts)

Great design and practicality. It has the highest comfort and second highest safety but it suffers from low reliablity and service costs over $1000.

1 - @karhgath - Régal Ellie 1500 C+C (100.00 pts)

Best SVC and practicality. Comfort, reliability and fuel economy also stand out. It has the lowest sportiness and design is the weakest of the top 4, but it scores well in every other stat.

Here’s the Spreadsheet™

Wow that was truly a quick fire challenge! Thanks for hosting it, it was an interesting premise.

Unfortunately would have less than 2 weeks to run a QFC and post results, bit too tight, so I pass it down to @the-chowi

the-chowi · 16 July 2025 22:34

I can’t host either, so it’s up to @vero94773

vero94773 · 16 July 2025 23:00

I have a few ideas for the next round, just need a day or so to get them together.

xsneakyxsimx · 17 July 2025 02:15

Pretty much, as it was outside of the intended brief. But nothing really clicked for me building more in line with the inspirations so I just figured an oddball would be fun.

vero94773 · 17 July 2025 16:41

QFC61 is up now!
