[Vansquish]

Nope, actually it is...the ZZII is indeed the car in the picture in #10

Oh so close on #4, but still not right. The Marcos is on the right track, but that's not what the car in #2 is. Keep it comin'!

[crayzayjay]

#1, #2 and #8 are killing me!!!

Since you've inflicted this on me, Vansquish, i feel it's only right to return the favour. Just one for you to guess :p

[Vansquish]

Ok...there's some decided parts-sharing going on in that one lol. Lots of CF, funky rake for the steering wheel...pedals placed for heel-and-toeing...hmmmmMy first guess would be an ultima, but the dash isn't right for that, so I'll retract it before I've made it hehe.

I think I'm gonna have to ponder that for a while...let me know if you want any hints :-)

[deth]

#4........dbr9 concept?

[Vansquish]

mmmmm nope hehe, very close though....

[HeilSvenska]

#4........dbr9 concept?


No guys, it looks like...Vanquish!

[deth]

#4........dbr9 concept?


No guys, it looks like...Vanquish!

with those air filters? you maybe right....but those filters look odd

[Vansquish]

HeilSvenska....sooooo close, but still not quite there...

[SilviaEvo]

Aston Martin V8 Vantage or it could also be LE Le Mans

[deth]

it looks to have 12 cyl not 8...so probably not the amv8

[gottacatchup]

okay so i'm gonna say 4. is Vanquish S

8. just screams maserati at me and i cant figure out why

[Vansquish]

8 isn't a Maser, and 4...well...you're about as close as HeilSvenka was...but it's not the Vanquish or Vanquish S

[gucom]

i dont think 4 is a DB7 GT or Vantage, cos both their engines look neater (more covers over the various engine parts), but well, who knows...

[Vansquish]

Hehe...you guys are soooooo close on that engine, it's definetely an Aston...but you're thinking about cars that are a little too recent, that's all :-)

[crayzayjay]

4. Aston Martin DB7 Zagato

[Vansquish]

lol...nope..that's too recent too...not the DB7, DB9, nor the DB7 Vantage, Zagato, AR1, nor GT or GT....and it's not the Vanquish or Vanquish S either....you're still thinking about too recent cars.

[No.1]

4. AM V8 Vantage

[Vansquish]

4. AM V8 Vantage

But it's a V12!!!

[deth]

4. AM V8 Vantage

But it's a V12!!!

:lol:...i'm pretty sure i even pointed that out! whats more its on this page!

[numerouno]

Isn't #4 a "Project Vantage" with the 5972cc Ford engine?

[Vansquish]

Isn't #4 a "Project Vantage" with the 5972cc Ford engine?

Whew! We have a winner! LOL...now...what about the rest of them?

[Vansquish]

So far the cars correctly identified are:

#3 Italdesign Schigera
#4 Aston Martin Project Vantage (props to numerouno for finally getting that noggin' scratcher.
#5 TommyKaira ZZII
#9 Suzuki Hayabusa GT Coupe
#10 Tommykaira ZZII

That means #'s 1,2,6,7, and 8 are still at large...get'em while you can!

Since things are going a bit slowly I thought i might provide a little help.

#1 isn't Italian at all, it's from the Orient

#2 isn't a Jag, but it's modeled off of one

#6 runs a 4.6L Ford V8

#7 should've been quicker, but only had 150bhp despite outrageous looks.

#8 If you zoom in far enough, you can see that this car is running a paddle-shift gearbox...it's an extremely low-volume vehicle (lower volume than even the Enzo) this means that this car's maker ended up using parts from cars already in production with sequential manual gearboxes. That should narrow it down to a Magnetti Marelli system in one form or another, or BMW's SMG, as I'm pretty sure those are the only widely available ones.

[Vansquish]

Oh come now guys...have you really given up already? This shouldn't be so hard, I just put in a lot of very low volume cars, that's all....

[deth]

This shouldn't be so hard, I just put in a lot of very low volume cars, that's all....

Translation: 'I'm want you all to feel stupid, for I am the supreme car god!' :wink:

[gottacatchup]

i'm just gonna go ahead and start guessing cause not knowing these is pissing me off, is 6 in any way an MG cause the wheel and shift knob match those of an MG but the rest is completely wrong.

[Vansquish]

Nope, not an MG, but it DOES use the same Ford-sourced 4.6L V8, tuned to produce 320bhp. Think even lower volume and again, it was designed to look like a Jag, (that's a huge hint)

7 : Spider Renault :mrgreen:

8 : Wiesmann Roadster MF3 :D

1 : Laraki Fulgura from Marocco :?:


Nice quizz 8)

[Vansquish]

Cha-ching!!! Good job Boyd...you've got two more!

The Weismann Roadster and Renault Sport Spider are indeed correct.

#1 isn't a Laraki though...think even lower volume....

[crayzayjay]

you've got two more!

And you've got one more, remember? ;)

[Vansquish]

you've got two more!

And you've got one more, remember? ;)

Huh?

[HeilSvenska]

#1 !!! Mitsuoka Orochi concept!!!

[Vansquish]

#1 !!! Mitsuoka Orochi concept!!!

Fantastic dude!!! Congrats, you just got what I thought was the hardest one on here hehe.

So now all that's left are: #2 and #6. If you'd like a hint, THE car is in the Cannonball 8000 thing, but only onscreen for a few seconds.

[gottacatchup]

^^Well now I know what the car looks like and i have two pictures of it but I still have no idea wtf its called. Looks kinda like the F-type concept in the front but the back is all TVR

[crayzayjay]

you've got two more!

And you've got one more, remember? ;)

Huh?I'm saying you've got one to guess as well (pic i posted on page 1) ;)

[gottacatchup]

Somone must know what this car is!
