The Ship Showdown is an annual popularity contest in which Star Citizen players may vote for their favorite ship.

Players can upload creative art and upvote their favorite vehicles in the Community Hub. The top 16 vehicles will be selected and pitted against each other. Upon completion, special sales and vehicle liveries are made available for the top four vehicles. These vehicles will then be displayed at the "Best in Show" showfloor during the last few days of the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo

Trivia

The unexpected but worthy winner in 2951, on display at the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo

Originally, the 2951 contest entry for the ARGO MPUV-1C was made more in jest than with any serious intention of it winning the showdown. However, an overwhelming fanbase as well as a rising Empire-wide appreciation for the MPUV's utility^[6] quickly saw it rising through the rounds and beating the MISC Freelancer, Anvil Carrack, and then the C2 Hercules in the semi-finals before triumphing over the Star Runner in the finals.
