Test your car guy IQ.
It should really be test your European Car IQ. There are a lot of American spec cars in the first few rounds, but towards 150+, Its euro all the way.

I got bored at 80. You can see the logos in 99% of the pictures, makes it too easy.

I do wonder how many people got the Chrysler ME concept right though. I only know because of an article I remember reading comparing it's technology to the cutting edge stuff in the Buick Wildcat concept of the early 80's.

I guessed on 80% of the Euro car models.
There was some white ugly looking thing that gave me 3 consecutive model years. How the ef am I gunna do that?
Some of the Opel/Vaux ones were somewhat easy. Then there is that LT1 car that had like 24's on it.

AM General = Hummer = GM

It was Hummer's first car. It launched Hummer's retail sales channel. How is it NOT a Hummer?

I gave up around 160.

Why did all the Opel Astra's look the same? And why does it look nothing like the Saturn one?

He does have a point, AM General built the HMMMV, nicknamed 'Hum Vee' , and 'Hummer' , and released the civilian version, the H1. Hummer didn't become a retail sales division with that name until after the H1 was released. It was soon after, but AM General was responsible for the initial release of the H1.
