I would never think I would beat one of these guys but in this challenge, I went by country and I won easy. Nobody named volvo, mclaren, peugeot, citroen, DS, subaru, Opel, Alfa, I got to 47.
The statistician in me wishes there were more segments later in the video where the results got a deeper analysis. Could have also went through each brand with all 4 named, a breakdown of the differences of the remaining, numbers named by location and by alphabetical position, percent completion by country/continent. I'm sure I'm alone on this... but I'm an analytical chemist so data is kinda my thing
Would've thought these guys would do much better. I suppose thinking geographically or by country would help, kind of in a Gran Turismo like way. Alphabetical seems more confusing in the end.
I once had to do this for a school game night and I just pictured a map of the globe and went with that, I think I got to like 40 in a minute. With the nowadays' hindsight I think I would just name some huge car brands and then just go by their subsidaries, you can name every Stellantis brand and have quite a few already.
Thinking about vehicle categories is also a good way to get obscure brands. For instance, thinking 60s muscle cars could give you defunct brands like Plymouth, AMC, and Pontiac; thinking obscure supercars from Top Gear could give you Gumpert, Zenvo, Morgan, Noble, etc.
The right way to do this is by splitting it into USA/Euro/Asia, listing off the most obvious or current, and then getting into the obscure brands with the leftover seconds.
Ones I could think of that weren't mentioned: Holden, Hudson, Jaguar, Land Rover / Range Rover, Mercury, Mini, Opal, Pontiac, Plymouth, Rolls Royce, Smart, Vauxhall
These contests are fun to watch. I would have done well on this particular one. I would have gone by country, which would organize my thinking and avoid duplication. I’d remember makes not imported to the US like Opel, Skoda and Seat. The dead British Leylands like Triumph and Rover and MG and Riley. The US recession victims like Pontiac and Oldsmobile and Plymouth and Mercury. The 50s defunct brands like Edsel and DeSoto and Studebaker. I can’t claim to *ever* beat Doug in another contest, but my love of car trivia and geography would have given me an advantage just this once!
I tried it and got 40 by going geographically. Just finished US (what I had in my head), then go to UK, Germany, France, China, reached 60s while doing Japan. Pretty fun
I kept thinking Rolls Royce, and Lada for some reason, and don't think any of them said either of those? Great game guys, play it again with foreknowledge so you can practice, and memorize the manufacturers. Who's memory is best? 👍😎✌🗽
A cool game could be: You gotta say a Brand with the letter of your turn and each turn advances one letter in alphabetical order. If you can't, you lose a life and if the alphabet reaches Z, you cycle again
Game idea - show a car to the group. Describe the year, make, model to the group. The challenge is to name the paint colour. Another idea - come up with a set of trivia questions. Play on teams of 2 people. Team BMW will be lead by Kenan and team Lambo will be lead by Doug
When Kennan started I thought he might be a challenge when he started using brands like Bristol but I would of smoked you all before I’d even left Europe by country 😎😂
They are terrible at this. Panic is their enemy. Also, don't say anything else but car brands - stop needlessly talking. I started with the VW group, then worked through countries, and easily beat all of them. Just from Britain: Caterham, Ariel, Austin, MINI, Rover, Ginetta, Lotus, Westfield, Triumph, BMC, Land Rover, Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Bentley, Panther.
should play the same game but goign through the alphabet one at a time. So say Doug starts with A, then Kennan with B, Filipo with C, etc... First to stumble or repeat looses. You can play multiple rounds.
It would have been interesting to see in the "thoughts on" segment the director/judge/whoever-off-screen-is-running-things put on the big screen brands that only one contestant said, just to watch all the others go "awwww…" at missing them. (Or "wow, you thought of THAT?" as appropriate.)
Am I the only one that would’ve started with all Japanese cars, then German, then US, then British, Italian, etc? I feel like focusing on countries would’ve been easy.
There are a lot of European car brands like VAZ/Lada, Gaz/Volga, Dacia, Trabant, Skoda, Tatra, Saab, Renault, Citroen, many of which got reviewed by Doug. Did anyone name Rolls Royce? What about Rivian, Lucid, Fisker, Polestar? Could they name former car brands like AMC, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Willys, AM General? The later reminds me of Oshkosh and Lockheed Martin.
Lordy that was pathetic. Only one person, I think, named Chevrolet, and I don't think anyone named VW. Disorganized thinking. It would have been so easy to work by Country, the parent company, then individual brands. US-GM- Chevy, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick, Cadillac, GMC . . .and so on.
Compare the total number of brands named, with the number of brands the person who came first named. Think about how many he missed. And I'm not comparing with all the brands in the world but just with what others named. I didn't reveal who it is or the numbers in order not to spoil it.
In hindsight, I wish I tried this before listening to them each take their turn. I'm pretty sure if I went by country, I would have won, or at least gotten close.
Everyone was naming the brands alphabetically... using continent might have been easier.
I tried doing this before starting the video and I did it by continent and got quite a lot
Agreed. You should try it and see if you beat em.
By country if you're a bit geeky is easier
I would never think I would beat one of these guys but in this challenge, I went by country and I won easy. Nobody named volvo, mclaren, peugeot, citroen, DS, subaru, Opel, Alfa, I got to 47.
@@scrubplaceholder6216 Doug named a lot of those.
Naming by countries is 10x easier
I thought the same.
Except, these are American's. They know 5 countries :D
Yep they all missed Skoda,Dacia,Maybach,Seat,Lada,Opel just to name few
Naming major conglomerates would have been more efficient e.g. Stellantis, GM, VW group etc.
Just GM and the companion brands from the 20’s and 30’s would have been enough to win
geographically by conglomerates. eg VW, Porsche, Audi, then Lamborghini, Bentley, Seat, Skoda
Failed British leyland brands and British sports cars like triumph Jensen Bristol gets you above Doug probably
Loving these new types of videos Doug. Feels like the original Doug demuro videos
Doug is The kind of guy that can't lose.😂😂
I knew Filippo was going to say Autobianchi. What a genius.
Doug forgot Mercedes-Benz, Pontiac, VAZ, probably alot more.
Sbarro, Monteverdi (from Switzerland) 🇨🇭
Saab
AMC too
doug forgetting aston martin after owning one was surprising
rivian

I agree
I want to try this myself :D
Japan: Toyota, Honda, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Suzuki, Lexus
Korea: Kia, Huyndai, Infiniti
China: BYD
Germany: Smart, Mercedes, Opel, Audi, BMW, Volkswagen, Porsche
Italy: Ferrari, Fiat, Lamborghini
Sweden: Koenigsegg, Volvo
GB: Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Mini
France: Bugatti, Citreon, Peugeot, Renault
Czech: Skoda
Spain: Seat
USA: Tesla, Ford, Buick, GMC, Dodge, Ram, Cadillac
38
Infiniti is Japanese
RIP India forgetting Mahindra and Tata.
These behind the scenes and that stuff is just amazing 😂
Doug. Im from Croatia(ex Yugoslavia) and I was own a Yugo. And Yugo is not a brand. Brand is Zastava. Zastava Yugo koral 45. 45hp
I understand these were Zastava Yugo in Yugoslavia, but were Yugo GV in the USA. YUGO was the logo on them.
I may actually try this one at home!
YESSSSS!!!!! Love these videos. You should open it up to your viewers - I would mop the floor with you clowns.
😂
That would actually be kind of cool… To have a viewer challenge the team via zoom or phone!
@@wonderbox01hoping Doug sees this
Would've thought these guys would do much better. I suppose thinking geographically or by country would help, kind of in a Gran Turismo like way. Alphabetical seems more confusing in the end.
yeah because then you get in your head too much about missing one that starts with the letter you're on, instead of just moving on.
I once had to do this for a school game night and I just pictured a map of the globe and went with that, I think I got to like 40 in a minute. With the nowadays' hindsight I think I would just name some huge car brands and then just go by their subsidaries, you can name every Stellantis brand and have quite a few already.
I love this series so much, I hope they keep it up and never run out of ideas.
Thinking about vehicle categories is also a good way to get obscure brands. For instance, thinking 60s muscle cars could give you defunct brands like Plymouth, AMC, and Pontiac; thinking obscure supercars from Top Gear could give you Gumpert, Zenvo, Morgan, Noble, etc.
They should’ve put an um counter for Doug
25 in 60 seconds
Couple o’ Twikes cuttin’ it up. Ya love to see it.
The right way to do this is by splitting it into USA/Euro/Asia, listing off the most obvious or current, and then getting into the obscure brands with the leftover seconds.
You know, I have to admit I like these videos a lot more than I thought I would. lol They're fun!
Ones I could think of that weren't mentioned:
Holden, Hudson, Jaguar, Land Rover / Range Rover, Mercury, Mini, Opal, Pontiac, Plymouth, Rolls Royce, Smart, Vauxhall
BYD, Mercury, Pontiac, Lucid, Rivian
These contests are fun to watch. I would have done well on this particular one.

Great video.We're riding with ya.
Where does one get a Cars and Bid shirt?
Can't tell if Kevin has a BB41 or a Black Bay 58, but *looks down at wrist*, great choice.👌🏼
You should do a scategories type game with cars. The most unique will get the points
need to do it by brand (ford/lincoln/mercury) then VW (VW, Audi, Seat, Skoda, etc)
totally agree with doug that the move is to go by country. i was thinking as soon as it was obvious that doug was going alphabetically lol
Would love to see Jay Leno do this challenge it would be next level.
I tried it and got 40 by going geographically. Just finished US (what I had in my head), then go to UK, Germany, France, China, reached 60s while doing Japan. Pretty fun
Sometimes Doug is over confident but he really did come out swimming here. Wow
I had the idea of doing countries, starting from right to left on the map. Holden, Mazda......... Tesla, Lucid.
Filippo my man saving Saab ❤️
I kept thinking Rolls Royce, and Lada for some reason, and don't think any of them said either of those? Great game guys, play it again with foreknowledge so you can practice, and memorize the manufacturers. Who's memory is best? 👍😎✌🗽
No counter in real time when they are being named?
That would literally ruin the suspense and final reveal of the winner
Still waiting patiently for the C&B Tennis Tournament videos... 😇
A cool game could be:
You gotta say a Brand with the letter of your turn and each turn advances one letter in alphabetical order. If you can't, you lose a life and if the alphabet reaches Z, you cycle again
Only Filippo mentioned Tesla is interesting, the mental share is dropping like a rock
What makes this hard is having to stop and try to remember what you have and haven't said.
Kennan really loves him some Doug doesn’t he.
This is a fun quick game, create a Leader board for this game and have guests do it.
I want to learn more about Doug's geography knowledge
I was surprised at the number of American brands they missed completely.
So much fun!
Surprised only one person said Tesla, and NO ONE said DeTomaso. Also, did Pontiac or Buick make an appearance?
Game idea - show a car to the group. Describe the year, make, model to the group. The challenge is to name the paint colour.
Another idea - come up with a set of trivia questions. Play on teams of 2 people. Team BMW will be lead by Kenan and team Lambo will be lead by Doug
Ac cobra am general
doug is the kind of guy to say UAZ but not land rover and jaguar
I was thinking someone would have gone by country
Doug not saying Mercedes is a war crime
Everybody missed Pontiac and Plymouth
Definitely easiest to name by country
I thought for sure Kennan would've gotten more than that
Naming the brands starting with the parent company then list all of those then move on to the next parent company.
When Kennan started I thought he might be a challenge when he started using brands like Bristol but I would of smoked you all before I’d even left Europe by country 😎😂
Doug missed Ineos, Bugatti, Lancia, Pinninfarina, Lotus, Tesla, Rivian, Saab, Fisker, TVR, Triumph, Renault, and more.
Plus 20 Chinese brands bigger than most on the list.
Where was the Saab love ?
Actually Yugo is not a brand, Zastava is the brand Yugo is just the model
Come on guys, that was an easy one
I would have gone by like sub brands
I’m gonna try this lmao.
Oh god he started a podcast…
NOBODY remembered the French cars :D
Yugo is not a brand, it's made by Zastava.
This is an impossible challenge as they only know brands sold in NA, maybe some from EU that's it
They could have said any random chinese-sounding words and it would be a valid car company from there
Going by country or origin would be better.
No one said peugeout or citroen
I don't think I heard lotus
I'd crash Doug on A alone
lol, no one got Oldsmobile
Doug got it
Got my hands full so I'm not watching this. Were Malaysian car brands like Proton and Perodua mentioned?
First
Highest achievement of your life.
I win!!!
But you lost at life.
@@snakeeyes9246 oh yea how so?
Americans being impressed by Doug's geographical knowledge means nothing to those of us outside of the US.
America continues to live rent free in the minds of Brits and Europeans.
They are terrible at this. Panic is their enemy. Also, don't say anything else but car brands - stop needlessly talking.
I started with the VW group, then worked through countries, and easily beat all of them. Just from Britain: Caterham, Ariel, Austin, MINI, Rover, Ginetta, Lotus, Westfield, Triumph, BMC, Land Rover, Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Bentley, Panther.
weird video
I can beat all of you.
Fillipo is just about as annoying as Alanis.......
should play the same game but goign through the alphabet one at a time. So say Doug starts with A, then Kennan with B, Filipo with C, etc... First to stumble or repeat looses. You can play multiple rounds.
Good video haha
How 'bout antiques... Studebaker? Packard? Duryea? Delahaye? Talbot-Lago? Simca? Rolls Royce? For an obscure Los Angeles brand: Duro?
It would have been interesting to see in the "thoughts on" segment the director/judge/whoever-off-screen-is-running-things put on the big screen brands that only one contestant said, just to watch all the others go "awwww…" at missing them. (Or "wow, you thought of THAT?" as appropriate.)
I think the smartest way to do this would have been by parent company, Ford/Lincoln/mercury, chevy/gmc/cadilac/saturn, VW/seat/audi, Toyota/Lexus, etc
Country of origin is the move.
Am I the only one that would’ve started with all Japanese cars, then German, then US, then British, Italian, etc? I feel like focusing on countries would’ve been easy.
There are a lot of European car brands like VAZ/Lada, Gaz/Volga, Dacia, Trabant, Skoda, Tatra, Saab, Renault, Citroen, many of which got reviewed by Doug. Did anyone name Rolls Royce?

Wtf, no one said Plymouth or Pontiac?!
Should add some Scattergories style rules next time, more point for brands that aren't repeated by others!
Lordy that was pathetic. Only one person, I think, named Chevrolet, and I don't think anyone named VW. Disorganized thinking. It would have been so easy to work by Country, the parent company, then individual brands. US-GM- Chevy, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick, Cadillac, GMC . . .and so on.
everyone forgot most of the uk brands like , jaguar , mg , rolls royce , tvr , vauxhau, land rover , lotus , caterham , mini , morgan
No mention of UK brands. Even Tesla and Rivian didn't make it. Rimac, LR, Jag, MG, Caterham, Mini
Compare the total number of brands named, with the number of brands the person who came first named. Think about how many he missed. And I'm not comparing with all the brands in the world but just with what others named.
I didn't reveal who it is or the numbers in order not to spoil it.
Was this a kind of dumb video? Yes. Am I happy I spent 11 minutes of my life watching it? Absolutely
In hindsight, I wish I tried this before listening to them each take their turn. I'm pretty sure if I went by country, I would have won, or at least gotten close.
yugo is not car company it's a model from company called zastava
And no one named Packard, Pierce Arrow, Franklin, Hudson…..
I could NOT do this…but Doug missing Renault hurt….😢
How did Kennan not say BMW?
No one said Rolls Royce or Land Rover???
