Fuel economy                 4                                    2                                1

Reliability                         3                                    2                                1

Speed and handling       5                                    4                                4

Purchase price               3                                    4                                2

Honda's value index (4 x 2) + (3 x 2) + (5 x 4) + (5 x 3) + (4 x 4) + (3 x 4) = 77

Bizzarrini's value index (4 x 1) + (3 x 1) + (5 x 4) + (5 x 5) + (4 x 4) + (3 x 2) = 74

You should choose the Honda Enigma.
