12 weeks = 3 months. That would work until the year is done. We could even fit "Best Concept Detroit" into that list without problems, so to have the four major exibitions all together. Therefore we are done by the end of this year. Every year we could do a Paris-Frankfurt Switcharoo and all is perfect.

However there are other questions as well...

i see after that you put 2 questions. Like i had said, there will be a big problem.
Question Gran Turismo = 3 weeks (part1 + part2 + final)
Question Geneva = 3 weeks
Question Concept Paris= 3weeks i think
Question Concept Tokyo = 3 weeks i think
= 12 weeks...
Like i had said, i doubt of one question by week.

Maybe i could split this into two Semifinals like someone said. But i see... its better to do "best concept of [insert city and year here]". I will start with Geneva 2016 because i like the Geneva motor show. EDIT: Geneva 2016 had 15 concept cars. Have to sort out 5 cars all by my own.

Anyway... how can i delete questions?

I don't think you can delete questions, but I can do it for you.

Maybe all the active members could list the 5 concept cars they like the least and we can leave the most unpopular ones out :)

EDIT: Ouch I got beaten by Rinspeed.

i will delete it. It could be a good idea for each show (detroit, paris, geneva, beijing...) doing a question and we could keep the bests (1 or 2) of each to at the end of the year do best 2016 concept. Problem, there is a lot of question and with one by week, i don't know if we could finish before the end of 2016. For Geneva 2016, perhaps a preselection here and we discuss all what cars are eliminated.

The Malaise Era is a period in the US from 1973 to 1983, when the oil prices increased extremely. Big American cars were drained from their power with carburetors and downsized engines and while initially became the longest and widest they have ever been, soon were reduced in dimensions (look at Eldorado 1978, 1979 for example). Japanese cars were selling like hot cakes (Honda entered the market at this time, and the Civic sold incredibly well). As a reaction, American producers tried to make smaller and more efficient cars, but they couldn't compete (RWD to FWD shift did not go smoothly). It's a very interesting time, as it changed the American car market a lot, and it ended the domination of GM and Ford (while Chrysler almost went bankrupt and AMC.. well..).

Well I don't know much about rally cars, but I didn't actually know that Lada made rally cars before I joined WCS.
Also, isn't the MG Metro more well known than the Ascona for the 80s rally cars? As far as I know the Metro didn't really score or anything, but it is often mentioned when talking about Group B cars.
Also, where is the Ford RS200? And what about Galant VR-4 instead of Lancer Evo 3?

For the rally, i think it was better to do some rounds by 70's,80's,90's,00's,10's. Because i can't understand that there is an unknown Lada and not a Celica, C4, 205,206, Xsara or others that won the championship.

Hello everyone,
The system of vote i had talk for the update is done. I will open it when all the updates will be done. I talk of that because if we want to have a lot of questions, we can prepare now them before the launch. It could determine the periodicity of questions (each week? each 3 days? each day? it will depend of the number of questions prepared). You could put 2 or more reponses (10 max) for your question. If there is more, you could put 2 questions with semi final 1 and semi final 2 for example (and we will do the final after). See here for an example of question: www.webcarstory.com/question.php?ch=1 You can add questions in this page (link add a question).
