18/25-- and still don't know which ones I got right or wrong, since I was only positive about two of them (Jag silhouette and Miata rear quarter photo).

Well it says you are detail oriented. the test is designed in a way to trick people who casually look thru it. People like me lol. It's designed with answers that SEEM correct to many people but aren't because of some detail or some knowledge that only someone with extra car knowledge would know. Yeah so.

The exhaust and valve question takes a little reasoning. So there is a mix of logic vs knowledge or a mix.

I think the "test" is more of a joke. My car knowledge dicksize doesn't feel any smaller

Seems like some of those questions are very obscure though.

C'mon you guys.. fawk.

I took it again and still got 24/25. I got the question I answered wrong, right.. and got an answer I previously got right, wrong.

A few of those are tough, but you guys should get at least 18-20 right.
