How to play

Look. One clue to start: a detail, a view, the spec sheet or the engine note.
Guess. Type a car, pick it from the list, tap Guess. Nicknames work: Miata, AE86.
Read the sectors. Every guess scores make, origin, era and class, and opens the next clue. Six guesses, one free hint.

Say the car is a Mazda MX-5 and you guess a Toyota MR2:

Toyota MR2 (W20)

✓ right ◐ close ✕ wrong

Right model wins. Exact generation too? That's a perfect.

The fine print

Close means the same region, production within ten years (the arrow says newer or older), or a neighbouring class.
Next clue opens the next clue without a guess, but it costs one of your six.
Free hint, once a day: a fact about the car, no guess spent.
A new car arrives at midnight, your time. Your streak counts days played, and one pit stop covers a missed day.
