It's slow and downloads tons of large images, some of which don't even work. The body type filters are also wrong, the "year" filters also allow me to select a higher min year than the max year.
I can't remove makes from my filter, unselecting and applying does not remove it and if I have 2 makes, unselect one and apply I suddenly have 4 and it duplicates the list 2x every time.
Some of the makes in the list don't even have dougscore entries.
Regarding the speed, that is something am working to improve, it's top of the priority list as we speak but thanks for pointing it out.
Idk why you're having the issue with the years, the max year depends on the year selected in the min year. It shouldn't be possible to select a higher min year than the max year, they're not independent of each other. Will also look into it.
The rest of the feedback is very helpful, I'll work on it...especially the filters. Not sure how I missed that but overall thanks for your feedback!
Your site is really buggy in many ways (e.g. if you filter by make, then click one of the top level sorting modes, it shows the make filter is still applied but the sorting includes all makes). I poked around for about 10 minutes and found a number of these sorts of issues.
Separate from that, though, I find the Doug Score almost entirely useless because -- at least on your site -- it's impossible to separate the Weekend and Weekday scores. Those scores are almost orthogonal and I doubt anybody who's optimizing for one really cares a whole lot about the other. Or, perhaps they really care a lot about one specific element (say, comfort), but grouping comfort and practicality into the same aggregate score makes the score itself useless.
Additionally, I don't know why Doug scores on the "weekday" elements at all. Given the top many scores are all sportscars of some kind or another, the whole exercise is basically just to show a bunch of pretty pictures with accompanying [subjective] data that doesn't really mean anything.
Yeah, the filtering was broken but I've fixed it. It should be much better now. I don't think the score is entirely useless. I also don't know why you would want to separate the daily and weekend scores. While I agree that anyone optimizing for one wouldn't care a lot about the other, there's no harm in knowing the other side of the coin. Most of the cars are sports cars but many are also everyday cars and for what its worth, it doesn't hurt to know what a sports car would score on daily use. In any case, thanks for taking the time to use the site. Appreciate the feedback!
I'm curious what Doug would think of this? I suppose his opinion might change depending on how you try to monetize, but if this is a way to audition for a gig at Cars and Bids it's not a bad idea :)
Trashing doug then holding up geese or 'sarah' is laughable. They are all a few degrees apart on the 'I like it because its popular (and i was sponsored shhhh) but heres my unconventional take' stichitk. Few if any unbiased car review channels exist, but thats not a bad thing. Some people like ecars, some like classics, others like light and good handling cars. Its all a matter of taste. Just like what you like, for your own reasons.

The "similar cars" aren't close to being similar.
