If they don't pick yours, its obvious that they Know they stand no chance.

Have they setup what the judging criteria will be?

martin82 · 02-15-2013, 02:27 PM

you guys read the small stuff? You will not be driving your car.....

bullitt5897 · 02-15-2013, 02:30 PM

Yep but it is very broad!

They are judging based on mod's and story/brand loyalty?

on the mods they are claiming they are looking for something original but functional. They are looking for something clean but very much performance based.

The brand knowledge and story I have no idea... Here is a snippet from my submission:

"Every car enthusiast strives to one day own a super car but for many of us the price is just so outrageous it becomes a pipe dream. In 2009, I found myself driving by the Nissan dealer every day for work and at first glance I noticed an awkward looking styled coupe. However, over the coming weeks the design grew on me. I soon found myself pulling into the parking lot and trading my track prepped s2000 in for a new 370z. The 370z was leaps and bounds more refined than the 350z predecessor and it immediately drew me to sign the dotted line. The power was great and the immediate torque gained from trading in my old s2000 was addictive. I immediately noticed the potential of this platform and the insane notion of “This could be my supercar!”..."
