Car Acronym Challenge! 

Time for Doug to ruin another family game night 🤣

Kennan pronounces Getriebe like we Germans pronounce the German word for corn 😄

Now I know what my wife means when she says that I take fun family games way too seriously

2:20 gave Sam the point even though it was Filippo’s… oopsie

I learned from Jeremy Clarkson on old Top Gear that "ST" stood for "sanitary towel".

When Filippo wanted a hint on the J in SVJ, Doug should have told him to just jot a word on his board

So happy with what’s become of the cars and bids channel. The guys are so entertaining!

They did Filippo dirty again!

29:30 ES stands for executive sedan but yeah its all very confusing 😄

SH-AWD is not just the Acura RL, it’s on literally every Acura model that they make now

22:57 bruh they should've also added LBX and LFA into the mix to make it even more confusing lol.

As a former 911 owner, I was ready for those Porsche acronyms. FYI, a 991 without a sunroof or convertible/targa top would not even have the "divot" in the middle of the center console between the buttons - that center area would be blank plastic, flush with the rest of the console cover panel.

VTEC = Valve Timing Electronically Controlled

Originally, the „K“ in the Mercedes acronyms meant not „kompakt“ (compact), but „kurz“ (short), it was first used for the SSK (Super Sport Kurz) in the 1920s.

I have a fiesta ST but I wasn’t sure about the ST meaning!😂

Those Challenges and the Podcasts are my favourite new Addition on Car RU-vid, so i'm glad you started doing those! Also, following Dougs Twitter i'm happy he went on a Trip throughout Europe, especially being in my Area of the Woods (Munich) and i hope one Day he does a whole "Car Review" Trip over here as there are tons of us alone here in the Region from Vienna, Salzburg, Munich and even up to Frankfurt who own a lot of the Cars Doug even mentioned he wants to review but doesn't have the Chance in the USA. Of course his Trip right now is a Family Trip, and when i'm on a Family Trip, i wouldn't do any Work either except (like Doug does) take Pics of Cars on the Streets and i love those Tweets. So i hope he and the Family enjoyed their Time in Europe and hopefully he comes over here one Day because Doug especially needs to review my "Wiesmann" Cars, my "Artega GT", but especially my Friends "Maybach G-Class Landaulet" which Doug mentioned in a Video is in his TOP CARS he wants to review. Don't worry, we won't sell any of them. But definitely do a Trip for Car Reviews someday when it's possible! Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps

Acura RL, the most underrated car in history. It’s wild that even Doug isn’t aware of what that car really is. He would go wild on its quirks and features. (Especially the 06+ CMBS version). But, he has not reviewed it yet.

The nerds took over the world. Doug Demuro is our king.

VTEC = Valve Timing Electronically Controlled so Doug pretty much nailed it.

im loving these videos honestly just car stuff KEEP going guys 👏

Love these videos, keep them coming please!!

SHAWD is no joke. Had it on an ‘07 MDX. It was crazy how it turned the car from the rear. That was a great car. (Not so great looking tho…)

Sorry, Doug. The only acronym in your whole game was ALFA. The rest were just abbreviations pronounced as a string of letters. An acronym is an abbreviation formed from the initial letters of other words AND PRONOUNCED AS A WORD (e.g. ASCII, NASA, LASER, RADAR).

This is a great show!

Kennans Italian accent is like nails on a chalkboard man

Whoever made the question is wrong. Per Wikipedia: "VTEC (described as Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control, but stands for Valve Timing Electronically Controlled)". Doug alone was right.

Damn I love these so much

Doug is overly competitive, he should smoke a J before he plays, lol.

This is so good!!

These typed of videos are awesome

Hey Doug, what was the quote to put a drop-ceiling in your studio and why didn't you ok it whatever it was?

I love these games so much!

this needs a timer and some Kahoot music

I like how the one guy put FIAT in his answer, which is itself an acronym. lol

Zooming in on the acronyms and the participants answers would be helpful.

Initialism is the term for acronyms that dont make a word. IBM for example

19:40 No way they will notice we snuck in this audio. The mix is flawless.

Lexus itself is an acronym!! (L)uxury (EX)port to the (US)

This the kind of knowledge that noone asked for, yet everyone wanted :)

Lexus models is probably the only one I could get right. CT: Creative Touring ES: Executive Sedan GX: Grand Crossover IS: Intelligent Sports LC: Luxury Coupe LFA: Lexus F-sport Apex LS: Luxury Sedan LX: Luxury Crossover NX: Nimble Crossover RC: Radical Coupe RX: Radiant Crossover SC: Sports Coupe UX: Urban Crossover TX: Touring Crossover RZ: Radiant Z-Axis/Zero GS: Grand Sedan LBX: Lexus Breakthrough Crossover

these videos are fun

GetrIEbe not getrEIbe!💀

Keenan's getreibe at the end made me laugh out loud

Two Doug videos today

Doug the sore winner 😂 15:21

Acura model names for the bonus round would've been just as challenging

The bonus round was made for me😅

Doug the type of guy to get tens of millions of investment in his website and still have terrible audio

In one example SH-AWD is technically “sport-hybrid awd” on the Acura RLX Hybrid. So Kennan gets a point in my book.

Coupe light compact is the CLC. CLK is Coupe Leicht Kurz (coupe light short)

I'm shocked you didn't include GTO!

OMG. DD plays AA on C&B with BFFL & EE’s FTW. WTF? LOL!

the very first questions the editor gave the point to the wrong person lol, i'm typing this soon as I see it

At least zoom in on the pics so we can see them as well

ST does mean Sport Touring on Buicks. Also SH-AWD overdrives the outer wheel while cornering. Honda’s regular system doesn’t

For those of us that like to play along could you guys please make the images bigger half of them i couldnt tell what we were supposed to be guessing on

I think instead of "Doug's Friend" the graphic should say the coolest car they drive.

I would just like to say, I knew the Alfa Romeo one. Yes, I am that much of a nerd.

I thouight some of the K's in MB lienup were for Kompressor

Missed a few Lexus models: ES - Executive Sedan, CT - Creative Touring, GX - Grand Crossover, LFA - Lexus Future Advance (or later) Lexus F-Sports Apex, LX - Luxury Crossover

It's funny how even car specialists don't know about these acronyms meanings, but they still stick them on the cars. It speaks to how marketing has some very basic/naïve components

Was really dumbfounded upon seeing for the first time the ATTESA E-TS acronym and what it stands for

Let’s get a video of you guys playing a tennis tourney

GUESS THE GAUGES game please!

Why is there an echo in the mics?

Surprised for none of them to know vtec had extra letters. Everyone focused on dohc and that wasn’t what they were looking for 😂

part 2 of these with chinese cars 😂

Next one: who can do a simple oil change on a basic car the fastest 😉

Doug!, You guys need some acoustic blankets the echo is huge and a little bit distracting

Doug the type of guy to let the whole world know that Alfa is in fact an acronym 😂

It's Getriebe; not "Getreibe", as Kennan says. 😅

I really wanna come compete with the cars and bids crew. I would have crushed you on the Lexus

Actually, ALFA stands for "Alberto Loves Fettuccine Alfredo."

It would be nice to have the pictures on the tv to be on screen. Some of them are very hard to read or see.

I'm so good at your games normally but I would have done as well as my wife on these.

I love the completely incorrect score keeping by both the graphic and the guys the entire time💀

as i german i am mildy infurated by kennan saying getriebe as getreibe

Hoping to see SAAB on the list

RX-reasonable crossover😁😁😁😁

So much echo, can yall get some more tapestries?

Doug's such a sore loser he can't even be happy for his friends doing good.

Doug is the type of guy that after sex he doesn't say "I Came" but says "I Won"

2:03 Doesn’t sound like we’ll be getting a review on the 05-08 Acura RL anytime soon… Which is disappointing to me because I own one. 😂😂😂 If it ever happens, however, I will be ecstatic lol … The A-Spec maybe?? Came with a body kit that is somewhat quirky. And they almost decided to put a V8 in it instead of the J Series V6

It's Lombarda; not "Lambarda". Minus one point for the organizer. 😂

Filippo is wrong, the RC and RX are gorgeous

GS will always mean Giugiaro sedan to me.

initialism = where letters are pronounced individually, ie. BMW, CIA. Acronym = letters are pronounced together as a word, ie. ALFA, POTUS.

Those aren’t all the Lexus models though. What about the GX, TX, LX, etc.?

I am sad we did not see PTY CAT.

Looking at the thumbnail I thought it was Hoovie

It’s Anomina Lombarda* Fabbrica Automobili by the way

I want Jay Leno as a guest contestant.

When showing the contestants, please also overlap the full image on our screen. I can’t see it

Some of these aren't acronyms but initialisms.

Lbx is the smallest lexus currently

WRONG Doug! ES is executive sedan haha

Acronyms should be visible to the audience so we can play along no matter what device it's on. Still a fun video 👏👏

Doug is like ChatGPT sometimes lol, confidently incorrect. Lexus ES is Executive Sedan. There's no way they'd call a luxury sedan "entry" level.

Hey Kennan, how’s Emily?

Car abbreviation* challenge.
