The Name Game - Solved by Aaron65, Tom_I, and Carnut
« on: December 20, 2010, 06:21:12 AM »
Below is a selection of twenty-four cropped photos of various vehicles. Each of the photos can be matched to another by something they have in common - they names they are known by. To win points in this puzzle, you must correctly match two photos, and provide the name the represented vehicles share. No points for just naming one or more vehicles, so there is no benefit in rushing to shout out the name of a vehicle you recognize, unless you want to assist another AutoPuzzler in stealing away the points you hope to score.

So, very basic, and hopefully, enjoyable.

Hmmm....

Slow week (due to the holiday) - perhaps an accelerated promotion schedule is in order.

I think #3 and #13 share the name "Dart".

#3 is a Goggomobil Dart, and #13 is a GSM Dart sports car from South Africa.

I'd agree with #15 being a Lamborghini Silhouette, but I think the pairing is with #17, an Oldsmobile Silhouette.
