Car Companies
 
If you could have your own car company what would it be called and what knid of cars would you make.

Shinez Jun 06 2003 6:04 PM

My car company would be called "Performance" And I'd keep the names of my car as simple as possible...My 4Cyl AWD car would be called I4-AWD...my V6 TT RWD would be called V6-TT-RWD and so on and so forth..

I think I'd start a devision of Mazda. A name? Eh...Eunos is open now I reckon. That'll be good.

I would make higher grade Mazdas. Probably some Eunos-only models, bring back the Eunos Cosmo, come out with a Milenia-type luxury car with a new V12 engine, bring back the Eunos Presso(the MX-3 essentially) with the Mazda 6's 220hp 3.0 V6, and other stuff. It'll be like Lexus is to Toyota, except Eunos would bring a European and Japanese aspect of Mazda to the US. Sales would go way up.

I create "Mopar Madness" (sp?)

I'd start restoring the old 60-70's muscle cars. i'd send teams of tow trucks out to areas were the old rotting cars are spotted. But the car wouls be on land where the owners won't sell them and/or say ther will restore them some day but really won't. In the cover of night i'd get the cars on trucks and tow them away before be get to many bullets at us for tresspassing. Once the cars are at my shop i would resotr them and soup them up a bit and sell them for $$$. Just a though

I'd do something similar to Attila. The name would have the name Muscle in it somewhere. I would build only muscle cars just like they were when they were new straight from the factory. I wouldn't limit them to only one car company though. They would be only cars from the mid to late 50s up to the early 70's. Nothing newer.

I'd call it Really Fast Car Co. And I'd build really fast cars.

Really Really Fast cars that are faster than sn00pie's fast cars Co. Ltd.

And i'd build really really fast cars that are faster than sn00pie's fast cars. And i'd paint them yellow.

I'd call it "Boring" and produce '99 Chevy Malibu ripoffs.

It's the Ltd. part that really upsets me!

Mmmmm... yellow!

hmm... let me think...

ok i got it... i would call my car company Land Yachts Ltd. and produce cars that would take over the cadillac and lincoln segment, there would be huge gas hogging V8s in them too. you would get a free hat to put on the rear deck by the window with your purchase too. the special feature is that the speedometer reads 5-10mph slower than the car is going. and production would be in neutral colors to please the taste of old folks.

Joey D Jun 07 2003 3:15 PM

I'd call my company MotoTronixs. I'd specialize in high powered trucks and suv's mostly. I'd have street and off road models. I might have one sports car but thats iffy.

Shinez Jun 07 2003 3:49 PM

make it a sports car..That is diesel powered with 4WD and can rock climb

Shinez Jun 07 2003 3:49 PM

oh wait..That's a lifted Subaru Outback...N/m

Joey D Jun 07 2003 4:10 PM

Or if you've ever seen the picture of the 70s Vetter lifted and looks like a montser truck.

Nightmage82 Jun 07 2003 6:11 PM

i'd call it the all time great car company and make copies of f40's f50's mac F1 LM's and 996 GT3's :D

plus a few other cars that were rare but should have been mass produced so we could all enjoy them i.e. 959

Shinez Jun 07 2003 7:34 PM

SWEET SASSY MOLASY will be the new name of my company, but.....The cars will remain the same

Cano Jun 07 2003 8:11 PM

id call it soimething like "you want it, we get it for you" If anyone would want to restore a car, theyd only have to tell me what they want and Id find it for them. then I could restore/modify the thing if the owner wanted to.
heh, yeah, rite. if I had no clients id help attila or DGB. but it would be about rescuing cars ^^

Gil Jun 07 2003 8:26 PM

I think I'd go with LTI, and restore and sell muscle cars from the late 60's and early 70's
LTI=Lo Tech Industries.:lol:

Joey D Jun 07 2003 10:08 PM

but lo tech is always better. less problems

And I'd start a tuner company called "Slightly Less Boring", which puts a larger exhaust and an offset racing stripe on those cars. Oh, and a little yellow "POWERSPORT" sticker underneath the badging on the trunk. Maybe a window banner too.
