Alrighty, here's one that's been in the pipeline for a bit.
I present Out Of Tune, a puzzle containing 100 tuners and 100 available points! Some are obvious, others are obscurer than a swordfish's testicles.
On a lot it's fairly obvious what the car is based on. In fact, in most it is. I would like the manufacturer(tuner) and - when applicable - the creation's new name. Otherwise simply tuner and base vehicle.
Hopefully there's enough here to get a great spread of answerers, and hopefully @re doesn't clean up 98% of them again. ;D
Have fun, and good luck!

Hmm... I wonder what's the deal with #11. I've always known this car as the Corrado Magnum by Design & Technik. And that's what also said for example here: http://home.conceptsfa.nl/~tmandos/corrado/engels.htm#Corrado%20magnum%20combi
and here: http://www.vw-club.co.yu/forum/index.php?topic=1777.0
and also in my 1990/1991 AutoKatalog which I could scan but I can't be bothered to at the moment ;)
I've never seen it branded as a MAG however?
-
The Corrado Magnum is stated on different web pages. Even Styling Garage (again!) claims the auhorship for this car.
I've found the very same pic of #11 named MAG Corrado. On those occasions I normally don't ask for verification...

Check your second link again, there's a black and white full page ad with the firm MAG at the bottom. ;)
-
If you read the ad, it's only about the two prototypes being for sale. It doesn't state that the company that sells them is the one that made them :P
As for Styling Garage, it';s not that far from truth. Design & Technik was established by Christian Hahn after his previous company - Styling Garage (SGS) went bust :)
Edit: I actually got bothered and scanned the relevant page from my AutoKatalog. here you go.
-
The way I see it someone saw the flier advertising the car for sale, read the 'firma: MAG' at the bottom - there's no mention whatsoever of Design & Technik - and then posted images using that new name elsewhere where I found them. The source I got these images from is one I generally can trust, but as we all know the internet has been known to be wrong on occasion. ;D
What I'll do is give Allemano 1 point for correctly identifying the incorrect car, and you 1 point for incorrectly identifying the correct car. How's that sound?

It is. You're probably looking for the name scar, as this photo also appears in their brochure. Scar sold, amongst others, SGS's and Gemballa's as if they were their own. For their brochure they used images that were made by the original tuners, in this case SGS. If you browse through the brochure you can also find photo's of SGS convertible's and stretch limousines, as well as another Gullwing.
In fact the location where that pic has been taken was used by SGS before for another photoshoot with a white Gullwing. Besides this I've also been talking with the owner of an SGS Gullwing widebody. His car has exactly the same bodykit and features as the black one in your photo. And according to the VIN it is a Styling Garage Special. He also said "Scar "stole" the image from SGS to use in their brochure after SGS had gone bankrupt".

Simply so, there's a dome on the roof of the Genaddi that is not present on the Mutec, that alone means they're not the same cars in my books.

Funny how terms develop.
Tuning used to be what people did to engines (and other mechanical parts) to improve performance and in the main they would be careful that there was no outward sign of their work (except sometimes for a discreet badge).
Based on the examples in this thread, dramatically changing the outward appearance is what tuners do now, so I ask you younger people to tell me if there is also any performance enhancement or is it all show and no action?
This is a Speedwell A35 and, apart from the racing numbers and stick-on front numberplate, would you know?

PS I think that Riley Pathfinder behind it is one I once owned!

Koenig for instance got their knowledge from racing and they applied that on their cars. I'm mentioning Koenig, because they also had VERY visual mods as well. Besides Koenig I think most of this list has been performance tuned, some of them to a very high specification. And not all tuners aimed for really powerfull cars (1000HP Ferrari's are extreme examples), some went for luxerious cars or save cars (armoured to the highest specification). And I'm not talking about the tacky american strechtes, but cars that were enlarged in length, width and height, MPW style. Some made convertibles or coupe's while the factory was not offering these models. Tuning is modifying, not only for racing.

Well, in my book, tuning is not preparing for racing or making bodystiles different from the offered by the factory. Tuning is modifying (and usually with bad taste) road models, either mechanically and/or visually, to make them faster/uglier/both for road use. On the other hand, preparing for race is race-spec'ing and the latter is coachbuilding or conversion. I would never consider a 456GT Venice Station or a R8 LMS as tuning...

True, I've thought about this before, but I find it difficult to label some companies as coachbuilder or tuner... So I call them both.. :p

#51 - Eriksson Camaro Z28 Yes!
Got it!
#5 - 2001 Caravaggio Corvette Z06 Le Mans Targa ;D You did indeed get it, well done!
#49 - Fabulous Land Cruiser (base Toyota Land Cruiser UZJ100W) Yes! Probably the most comical tuning job I've seen
#61 - Lingerfelter Corvette Indeed it is
#68 - SGS 560SEC Nope, and correctly guessed by Sebas above you.
All that's left are #17, #30 and #98! Who's up to guessing these? The points tally is as follows:
Jotage21 - 8
ImpishGrin - 15
JeffJue - 4
Arunas - 3
Joao Gois - 22
basman007 - 23
Allemano - 4
@re - 13
Ehhxekt - 4
Paul Jaray - 1
Who will win the battle between Joao and basman? Will ImpishGrin ease out @re by just two points!? Stay tuned, same time, same channel!

:popcorn:

98 - Folger F1R
-
A bit OT, but since it is somewhat related the replies:
The Q-Ship. A stock looking car, that performs way above it's modest stock based exterior.
For example:
A Dinan 325 S2
A Audi A3 APR
A Fly'n Miata
My first attempt at the above; a stock exterior '71 V.W. Bug with 1835cc. It would smoke our 356SC Porsche.
-
After basman007's correct guess of Folger, only 17 and 30 remain..
17 I can understand, as it's actually an American tuner, but 30 I am very surprised by as it's one of the best known tuners...

At this stage I'm dumbfounded that #30 has not fallen yet... Such a well known tuner and yet it's still standing... The brand of the car is a massive giveaway and looking at some of the other tuners that have been guessed, this one should have been an absolute doozy.
#17 is a fairly outrageous tuner, not greatly known but nonetheless has 20 years of experience. Provides both full tunes and smaller kits from it's single American store.
Only #17 and #30 left, once those are gone I can hand out the 100 well deserved points!
-
Only 2 cars left to guess before I can hand out this gigantic haul of 100 points to their respective guessers...
#17 - I found this tuner originally in a 2000ish copy of DuPont Registry. Does this help? If not, ask questions that may help!
#30... Come on! Need I give any more hints? VERY well known tuner, with the brand that they're best known for...

Hi there, long time no see :)
Let me fire off a guess for the Z3. Could it be AC Schnitzer? Those round lights can't be found anywhere ???
-
or Racing Dynamics?

Held for 12 hours for you, to find the correct model name.

I'm afraid that that's not the correct answer. AC Schnitzer made at least two variations of the Z3, one which you have named. I'm after the other...
-
Wich is the ACS3 Sport Roadster.

Wich is the ACS3 Sport Roadster.
I'm afraid not. Note the placement of the exhaust pipes of #30, and there's none in that same place on the ACS3 Roadster.
-
Sorry for the late reply, but I'm also making a powerpoint in between :p
Not mentioned on their model line-up, but it's an AC Schnitzer V8 roadster.

Correct! that means that the person who can unlock #17 will be the person that also unlocks the remaining 99 points...
-
I think you should lock this for basman007 till he's back, now it's just too easy to steal his point...

No it's ok, he got it correct in the end so the point is his. There's just the one left now...

I looked at DuPont Registry issues from 1992, 1994, 1995, 1996. Nothing :-\
Ruf?

That doesn't surprise me...Wasn't it the 2.000 edition? ;D
And #17 is still American, isn't it?

Ruf? 'fraid not. They don't seem to have precense in every DuPont of mine either, but they're in at least 3 of them. My collection is scattered between '96 and 2002 though...

Yes, an American tuning house that as far as I'm aware works exclusively on Porsches. Founded in the early to mid 80s I believe.

Was this design company already subject of a puzzle before?
Not BBR (Beach Boys Racing) I guess...

Switzer Performance?

Again sorry, it's not.

Orange County based Porsche tuner that's been around since the 80s..
Offers both his own creations and is a distributor for several other tuners, amongst which Strosek, Gemballa and TechArt.
-
This company is based in Santa Ana, and really isn't an uncommon Porsche customizer...
One last bump before 99 points solved and just 1 unsolved are reposited into the Black Hole...
-
Anziano's Bad Boy Cars?
-
Anziano's Bad Boy Cars?
Yes!!
Now I need the model of this particular one, and if you do happen to find it please PM me with the source because it appears that the Anzianos website is down, making it rather difficult to track down, and I have no file on hand to confirm the names anymore, everything is in storage currently.
-
I go for Illusion, but I have no proof. I will try to dig out something tomorrow
UPDATE: 1994 and 1995 issues of DuPont magazine only featured Strosek Megabody conversions by Anziano's Bad Boy. I am stuck
-
allriiiiiight.... I'll shoot (again). Car Crafters from Miami?

It's an Anziano's, that has already been established. Unfortunately on the new Anziano's website there are no history pics :(
-
oops, didn't even read this last page lol :p
Porsche 993 Turbo Illuzion Mega Wide Body by Anziano's Bad Boys
I've got 'proof', will show you soon...
edit: 100 posts for 100 cars ;)

Would be neat to finally get those 100 points distributed. Unfortunately, Mr. DHoffmann was last seen here over 3 months ago apparently. Did he leave his puzzles to someone maybe?
