This thread is for February 2017 COTM **Nominations** PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE COTM NOMINATION RULES BEFORE PROCEEDING TO NOMINATE A MEMBER’S RIDE FOR COTM.
REMEMBER, WE MUST PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE CONTEST SO THAT THE MOST DESERVING MEMBER WINS.

This thread is a Nomination Thread to nominate cars that will compete for this month's Car of the Month honor. The 12 (or less) most popularly nominated cars will be compiled into a *Voting Thread* in a couple of weeks. If you do not nominate a member's car for COTM, you can still second or third (fourth, fifth, so on) someone else's nomination. Cars must have at least a second nomination in order to make the Voting Thread.

• Do not nominate your own car. Your car must be nominated by another TGO Member.

• Do not ask your wife, husband, friends, extended family, etc. to register as TGO Members for the purpose of nominating your car.
  

• Do not nominate more than one car.

• Do not use multiple member accounts to nominate your own car or to nominate multiple cars.

• This is not a picture thread. Post only one (1) good photo of the car you wish to nominate. Do not use a photo-edited picture.

• You must post a picture with your nomination. This must be a full-sized picture (or at the very least, a pic or thumb that enlarges into a full-sized picture when you click on it).
  

• Correctly identify the user name of the member who you nominate.

• Correctly identify the year and model/trim of the car you nominate.

• Do not nominate cars that are not in a high quality, finished state.

• And if you are nominated, please DO go out and take an abundance of good quality photos of your ride (multiple angles, interior, engine) and make them publicly accessible (for example via a photo album in your public profile or some sort of hyperlink to your photo album.)

**Editor's Note**

This year I would like to, for the most part, give the members who participate the freedom to choose nominees unencumbered by monthly qualifications of make, trim, and build-type. i have always said that TGO Members do an excellent job of choosing a variety of different types of cars. The one caveat however is this: We need to try to get some new blood into the nomination process. If your buddy (or a member who has a car that you really appreciate) has been nominated two or three times in 2016...and 2015, lets maybe give it a rest for a while. It gets old, even for the guy who has to copy and paste a campaign in the Voting Thread every other month.

The same high standards are still in place. The COTM Bait Thread is still open in the sticky section. Refer to it. Add to it.

I'll second Erik's Car

 

Thanks for the nomination!!

 

I'll second topspeeds firebird. Beautiful car.

 

Anybody else recall that just 12 months ago we voted 1986Z28OWNER to be Car Of The Year and here we are 12 months later nominating him again?

 

No, I didn't know that. Apparently I have a good eye for winners!

I think the solution is for more nominations to be brought forward to give Linson more choices. Throw a good one on the table, Tibo, and I might second it for you.

 

I see a nice blue Camaro at the top of the bait thread right now.... *hint* *hint*
Those people in the bait thread actually want to be part of the game and will do write ups and such.

 

whoops, please delete.

 

I nominate CustomBlackBird for his 87 formula.


Dude has been very beneficial to thirdgen.org and has a car that isn't a stock garage queen or only composed of bolted on parts. A fantastic candidate.

 

I'd like to nominate akanitro's IMMACULATE GTA.

 

I will second CustomBlackBird. His car is a stunner and a guy with a lot of knowledge that has helped me figure a few things out that had me scratching my head. Lets see some new blood here. Plenty of other nice third gens on this site that never get nominated. Please check out the bait thread Linson setup just for this. Tired of seeing some of the same cars over and over.

 

....

 

I'll second that

 

3rd vote for akanitro's DAILY DRIVER/ Show Car!

 

Gorgeous car!

 

I'm guessing its '89-ish????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
