Default Concept Cars
So many concept cars should have been built, but never were. Who else has pics of great concepts that never came to be? Here's a couple I wish that manufacturers did produce:

1996 ItalDesign Formula4



1985 Nissan AZ-1



2001 Toyota Zagato VM 180

The first one looks like an ice cube tray for 4.
The second one. Nissan knocked off Ferarri.
The third one I like.

I have the most respect for Ford out of the Big 3 because they're the only company that did not go crying to the gov't for a bailout. They're also the most successful American car company which goes to show others share my sentiment.

Plus they make the best God damn trucks out there!

I like what Steve Jobs says about concepts: "real artists ship"

The motor industry is pretty masturbatory with these concepts if you ask me.

It may seem that way, but some of these cars cost millions of dollars to produce a single product. If I invested millions of my dollars into something, I'd like to make sure the public was going to buy my product. These concepts ARE shipped around the world at various car shows to gauge public response. Most end up getting axed because of disinterest at the time. Many cars are way ahead of their time and many aspects of a particular concept car are used in other models by that manufacturer.

That's a freaky one. The front end kinda reminds me of Nissan's all-electric 2011 ESFLOW:

Woah. That Nissan looks pretty darn cool from the front but goodness - the back is... unique

I can certainly see the front's resemblance to the Furai though.
