I see your Rampage, and raise you a Concept T:


That's kinda cool but it doesn't look like anything- the Rampage would've at least been part truck.

I'm not a big fan of the Furai. It looks ok but the other Mazda cars like the 3 are starting to look like it. And it's not working.

Chrysler had some promising stuff in the 90's.  :(

I liked the Razor much more than the Demon.


-------------------------


Toyota Alessandro Volta. MR, and a nice sized engine makes it an attractive performance option.

That was the Dodge VENOM.

No, the Razor.



*sigh* Yes, but the other car you called Demon is actually the Venom.

omicron

The Holden Torana GTR-X





It would have been launched around the same time as the Datsun 240Z, with the same RWD/straight-six combination and a V8 to follow. Such a wasted opportunity.

Vinsanity

Wow, that interior would look good in a sports car made today!

Not to mention the exterior styling has aged very well even in relation to many other classic sports cars like the 240Z.

Holden does have more than its share of awesome concepts; I would have totally rocked this bad boy:



It would at the very least have given me a great excuse to wear a fedora and a different argyle sweater vest every day to work :mrcool:

No, I was referring to the Dodge Demon concept. I think the Razor should have been produced.

I was going to post this one.  Such a beautiful car!  It's a shame they never produced it.

Wasn't there a Prowler with a V8 and a stick? 

Also, all those Volkswagen concept sports cars over the last few years that never made it to production.

Don't you do that now anyway?  Like Lloyd, that one time on Entourage.

Can you kick it back over when you flip it?

Ford GT90 could be made today.



And then on the Chrysler side, while I like the Razor, I preferred this one:



the Pronto Spyder. A modern 550 Spyder.

I also still love the Chronos. Big friggin Karmann Ghia...





And I would own this car right now.



Would have been much better than the Prowler, because a V6 would not have been out of place.

And of course, I still wish they would have done a version of this...



half price Aston based on a Viper chassis? Nothing wrong with that, at all.
Like a fine Detroit wine, this vehicle has aged to budgetary perfection...

The most recent Holden Torana concept, the TT36.

Probably. I only browse the "Post a Pic of Yourself" thread when I'm especially bored, so I don't exactly remember the ones I put on there.
