1 voteHi Greg,
This form is to suggest features for autotempest.com, a used car search engine. You could certainly use AutoTempest to search for an S2000 though!

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.

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.

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.

I would suggest entering Ford Explorer in the make/model boxes, then Platinum in the keywords field. Should give what you’re looking for.

It looks like the R is a trim level of the V70, right? You should be able to find them by choosing V70 from the dropdown, and then entering “R” (without the quotes) in the keywords box. You could also try choosing “Other Volvo Model” and then typing V70R (as a separate search) to catch any that have been misspelled, without the space.

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!)

Please add the Audi Allroad
The Audi Allroad was a bit different of a model then the Audi A4 Allroad and made years before. It was based on the Audi A6 Avant but had Adjustable Air Suspension, tougher plastic that wouldnt get scratched as easily as paint, different styling...
.... and are cheaper because of more complicated service and additional issues, but very desirable because of tuning options and large amount of wrenchers that pick em up for cheap so a lot of info on repair.
1 voteYou can actually search any model by choosing “Other” from the model dropdown.

Add Jetta GLX and GLS
These are VR6 models that are tricky to find, would help if it was a search option.
1 voteAs I understand it, the GLX and GLS are trim levels of the Jetta, rather than separate models. The best way to search for them should be to choose Jetta from the model dropdown. then enter the trim you’re looking for (GLX or GLS) in the keywords box. Currently we don’t support OR’ed keywords (although we’re working on it!) so if you want to search both, you would make two separate searches.

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.

Refine
The "Refine Search" function should search what is asked. I looked for all Lexus with a manual transmission only which should be a smaller number since they are rare. It included ALL Lexus that did not specify it's transmission in their listings, which was a huge number of ads.

Your $@#*%^g software
How about getting your software to accept email addresses ending in suddenlink.net? My main email address has been in use for over 15 years, but according to your or Survey Monkey's software, it "doesn't appear to be a valid email address".
1 voteWhile we use surveymonkey to power our site survey, we don’t control their software. Unfortunately I have no idea why it isn’t recognizing your email address.

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.)

Type R is a trim; we’re going to add a trim filter soon.

toyota fortuner is missing ..
toyota fortuner is missing in toyota section
1 voteSince AutoTempest currently only supports the North American market, we don’t include every global model if it isn’t sold in the US or Canada. You can still search for these models though, by choosing the “Other Model” option in the model dropdown, and typing in the name. (Since we only search North America though, you probably won’t find many.)

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!
