[QUOTE="Ingolstadt, post: 1810588, member: 21290"] Hi guys, from time to time, there will inevitably be some stunning concepts from major manufacturers that everyone drools. Was just thinking of it the other day, how many had been dissapointed by the "Gone-with-the-wind" approach by most of them. Here's a list, please add your suggestions, then we will calculate them and produce a poll. ***Forummers NOTE*** Please provide 'feasible' suggestions. Feasible in the sense that the concept can be realize using one of the current available platforms from the manufacturer or sister company, and that the concept's drivetrain uses petrol, hybrid, fuelcell, electricity, natural gas or diesel; there shouldn't be concepts with "Nuclear Power" or ion propulsion kinda crap. (no thanks to solar or wind). Discussions on whether one should or should not be manufactured is very much welcomed, but please with points stated and personal opinions. Heated discussions is a welcoming sight provided people debate with facts and figures rather than calling names. The proposed concept must be something the manufacturer already produced, tested, worked. Not something from drawings. (Manufacturer must have the capability of producing it) ***Spammers NOTE*** Please, do it for your family or yourself, just read. THANKS. I'll head start: [b]Maybach Exelero[/b] It's simply stunning and i reckon it looks tonnes better than any designs from the current German Trio, it carries the Gotham city theme with it very well with a mixture of retro - sci fi. http://www.autoblog.com.es/fotos/maybach/exelero5.jpg [b]Peugeot 908RC[/b] Carries sort of the same theme as the Exelero, but it really could serve as Peugeot's retaliation as breaking the barriers of current buyer's opinions and reserves on French super luxury vehicle. http://pub.tv2.no/multimedia/slideshow/92901/13.jpg [b]Audi Nuvolari[/b] Pioneering the new Audi family look, it carries with it every inch of detail styling which should've been Audi's new design language. http://www.edmunds.com/media/2003/geneva/audi.nuvolari/audi.nuvolari.f34.500.jpg [b]Audi Shooting Brake[/b] This should've been Audi's new TT; or A3.
