Answer 1

Ok, here we go:
5 cars total.
1. Rachel - first car in line, yellow, SUV
2. blue car (Rachel is in front of the blue car), convertible, Anton
3. minivan - third car in line, Diego
4.  white car, sedan, Ingrid
5. green car, immediately behind white car, Yuna, pickup


We know that Rachel is first, a blue car is second and the minivan is third.  We know that 3, 4 cannot be a convertible since one is a minivan and the other is a sedan.  We also know that a yellow car is in front of the convertible. 

Based off of that we know that car 5 cannot be a convertible since 4 is white and not yellow. So 1 or 2 is the convertible and SUV.  But we know that Rachel is in front of a blue car and the yellow car is in front of a convertible so that makes car #2 the blue convertible and car #1 the yellow SUV. 

Fill in what you do know and start to eliminate the outliers.  Hope that helps.
