Add 'titles only' option to AutoTempest main page
Right now the 'titles only' option isn't selectable until on SearchTempest. Unfortunately, selecting this omits the year range previously selected in AutoTempest. This means new AutoTempest/SearchTempest can either search titles only OR a year range, but not both. An example is I cannot search for keyword 'cyclone|montego' 1968-1969 titles only. NOTE: this issue does not exist on old.AutoTempest and switching to the Craigslist tab.

Fuel Type
Add a fuel type filter.
2 votesAs it stands, few of our sources support filtering by fuel type, so it’s difficult for us to do it ourselves. However, you can add your desired fuel type as a keyword, which should give you somewhat accurate results.

Add Honda Beat as a model
Add Honda Beat as a model
2 votesSince I don’t believe the Beat was ever sold in the US (correct me if I’m wrong) we probably will leave it off the list, but you can still search for it by choosing “Other Model” and typing in the name.

Leting you sort oldest to newest in the mobile sight.
I only have internet on my phone so I can only use the mobile sight. I have tried to sort vechels from oldest to newest a few times but I only get the newest ones first. I'm not sure how ling it would take to scroll the results tell i get to the oldest vehicle but I am unwilling to find out. Would be nice to be able to select ascending or descending order.
2 votesWe’d rather not complicate things with more sort options, but you can always filter your search to the years you’re interested in.

Scion FRS missing from list of models for Scion.
The Scion FRS is not listed as one of the optional choices for model year.
1 voteThe model name is FR-S, which is listed. (Don’t worry though; we search “FRS” as well as “FR-S” when you choose it.)

Year groupings
I should be able to check off particular years I am interested in, rather than a chronological group. For example, I should be able to do a search on Porsche 911, 1987-1989 and 1995-1998, all in one search. Or Honda Civic, 2009, 2012, 2015, and 2017. Sometimes particular model years have likes or dislikes, and you would want to reduce your results accordingly. Maybe an option where you can check boxes for the exact years you are interested in???
1 voteProbably not something we’re going to do, as it’s a relatively uncommon desire, which can be done by saving separate searches. I can understand how it would be nice if that’s what you’re specifically looking to do, but at this time we don’t feel the added complexity of the interface would be a reasonable tradeoff.

Chevy Lumina Z34
Add them to your drop down box. there are lumina cars , Vans and coupes. << Z34
1 voteI would recommend choosing Lumina as the model, then entering Z34 in the keywords field. Not all sellers will include the full name in the model field, so this should be the most reliable way to find them.

Porche 911 Turbo
Differentiate between models
1 voteTo search for a 911 Turbo, please choose Porsche and 911 from the Make/Model dropdowns, then type Turbo in the "trim keywords" field.

Motorcycle search
If we could search by brand/model for motorcycles that would be great. I'd love to search based on common names instead of the exact model number. (ex. Honda Magna instead of Honda VF700c)
1 voteThanks for the suggestion! We’re planning to keep AutoTempest focused on cars, but we will be adding more motorcycle search features to searchtempest.com soon. The first thing we have planned is to add results from Cycletrader.com.

how about my keyword actually locates what I'm looking for, i put "cap" in the keyword field and none. Do your one and only job!
Make the keyword actually work!

simplify
stop doing gay things like making the "x/close button" rotate when hovered over.
Every one of these dumb ideas adds to the annoyance of a web site.

Fix manual trans filtering
When filtering for manual transmission a lot of the cars that show up on my transmissions.
1 voteWasn’t able to reproduce. If you’re still having this problem, please let us know.
Original message: Thanks for the bug report! Could you send some specific examples of vehicles that are showing up when they shouldn’t, so we can track down the problem?

searching for manual transmission is not working at all
searching for manual transmission is not working at all
1 voteWas not able to reproduce this problem. If it’s still happening, please let us know.
Original message: Hi, could you please paste a link to your search results page, and let me know which automatic vehicles are coming up when they shouldn’t be? I just tried a couple of searches with the manual only filter set, and it did appear to be working for me, so your search would really help me track down the problem. Thanks!

Filter out bids
Remove bids and see only sale price when looking for a specific price range.
1 voteUnfortunately the ebay API doesn’t support better filtering by price. that said, you can filter out all auction results by deselecting “eBay Auctions” in the change sources menu, that can be found at the top of the source nav bar near the top of the results page.

Sort by country of manufacture
Sort by where made ex: US or Europe cause theres 2 Ford escort maker countries
1 voteThanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately, this is not a filter that most of our sources provide, so it would be unlikely we’ll ever be able to implement this.

Sort by horsepower
Sorting by horsepower.
1 voteThis is a cool idea, but unfortunately not something we’re able to easily do. A single model will have different horsepower depending on engine and trim options, and model year, not all of which we have for every listing, nor do we currently have a database of the horsepower for every possible model/year/trim.

Changes?
add southeast to your area search options.
Is there a need to add a western NC to the search cities/area list for north carolina?
add Hillman to the car list
1 voteWe’re working on adding “comboboxes” instead of the existing dropdowns, which will let you type any make or model you like, as well as selecting from our lists. Until that’s done though, you can work around it by choosing “Any Make” and typing Hillman in the keywords box instead.
Regarding locations, if you’re referring to the craigslist locations that come up on SearchTempest.com, Western NC is listed as Asheville, but it’s the same site. Hope that helps!

Simplify Body Types
Simplify your body types. 2 door. 4 door. Minivan. Station wagon. 2 door SUV. 4 door SUV. Convertible.
1 voteThese are pretty close to our existing list of body types. 2 door = coupe, 4 door = sedan. The others are the same except that we include hatchback as a separate style and don’t differentiate 2-door SUV and 4-door SUV. (I’ve actually never heard of a 2-door SUV!)

Add a "search by state" filter.
It's annoying to register an out of state car here in Ohio. Searching by distance includes out of state results that I don't want to see.
