Re: Car-themed word games

Land Rover  (ok that's a make, not a model)
Discovery
Aventador
McLaren F1  (i'm counting that number as a letter)

Allowing trim designators would make this too easy, but I'm including this one anyway;
Taurus SHO

Re: Car-themed word games

Can we include the make?

>Maserati Quattroporte (and Biturbo)

This is tough.

>Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition?

Rats, the Murcielago convertible was a "Roadster" and not a "Spyder".  Maybe some Bentley or Rolls Royce model I don't know has the letters you need.  I'm trying not to just wiki every car make with a Y in it...

Missing a couple letters there.

>Oldsmobile Aurora
>Chrysler LeBaron GTi Turbo (please have existed..... damn)
>Mitsubishi Lancer Evo

I just found one with all 6 (if you include make) by accident, I didn't think of it on my own so I'll let others guess.

I'm an idiot... read that as 5 vowels. not ALL 5 vowels.


Try again:

That's the one!  Interestingly, it uses each vowel exactly once.
