Sometime during the fall of 1986, the CBS and syndicated versions added a second bonus round game in which the contestant could win a car. The game followed the Money Cards, and featured a row of seven playing cards, aligned in a horizontal row. Correctly choosing the card marked "CAR" won the car for a contestant. Contestants got one pick (from winning the game), but could win additional picks by finding a "Joker" during the Money Cards. In 1988, a new car game debuted, in which the contestant had to correctly guess how many of the audience's "special group" of members responded to a question (out of 10 members). Guessing the correct number on the nose won the car, with special cash bonuses for being a certain number off, high-or-low.
