I thought the genesis was a bmw and the Mercedes was a genesis. Go figure, the cheap car looked expensive and the expensive car looked cheap to me.

17/21 = 81%

Missed the 1st gen Insight, Mazda 6, Nissan GT-R, And called the Hyundai a BMW as well.

Probably the only reason I got the Civic Hybrid was cause I remember that I missed it on the hybrid quiz!

MetroMPG -

I got 90%, I missed the Hyundai Genesis (question #8, thought it was a Benz) and the Opel Insignia (question #19, thought it was a Hyundai). Maybe 1/2 my recognition is the "design language" of the manufacturer, not the car itself.

I'm happy I got the Opel Calibra. I was looking for that one.

I know this might give away my age, but all I could think of when I was taking this quiz was "Who's that Pokemon??"

[edited] Ahaha...and I just noticed the poster above me.
