It’s that time… *queue the music* for the most wonderful time… of the year!
The Hooniverse Car of the Year posts are heading your way starting next week. We have a wide range of nominees and we’re sure that you’ll hate some and love others. But if you were to write in a nomination, what would you pick?
Here’s a rundown of the prior winners:
- 2009 HCOTY – Eric Bana’s The Beast
- 2010 HCOTY – The controversial Drift Truck vote
- 2011 HCOTY – Sparky’s Killer ZomBee
- 2012 HCOTY – The EV Midget
- 2013 HCOTY – A tie-vote between SpeedyCop’s Cessna car and the Worst Car in the World
- 2014 HCOTY – The Hurst Gremlin Rescue Vehicle
- 2015 HCOTY – NasCarlo (and also the ratty Honda S600)
- 2016 HCOTY – The BMW Alpha streamliner motorcycle
- 2017 HCOTY – Bradley Brownell’s Porsche 912E
The Mighty Car Mods GTR powered 240Z?
That is a sweet car. And Marty’s reaction during the test drive was hilarious.
Well, if it’s a life or death decision…

The terrifyingly unrestored 1941 Oldsmobile “art car” that showed up at the 24 Hours of Lemons race in Houston and ran all weekend. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAV8AgPSMnc
A bit of shameless self promotion…
I’d nominate the FormaCars built Factory Five Roadster for the 2019 London Cobra Show raffle. Not just because I had a hand in the design and build but because of the modern interior, the full heat and ac, the 2016 Mustang Coyote V8 and 6 speed, traction control and launch control, and it looks fantastic with black out trim and the Viper ACR color scheme.
Plus it will be raffled in June with the proceeds benefitting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
