Favourite concept?

By that i mean cars that have been shown to the world, as potential production vehicles and the possible direction of the company.
So like the mazda furai for example, but you can only pick one and have to give a reason why
Mine? Lamborghini's estoque, for being able to introduce the family to the delights of high performance motoring

Not really keen on all this wild stuff that'll never make production in 100 years. Just a pointless waste of time, money and resources.
I do like this though, more prototype than concept and a vehicle did arise from the idea behind it. although I kind of wish they'd just have made this.

I kind of agree with you, but from the industry's point of view, it's cheaper to build one concept showing the potential styling direction for the brand, to test-the-water. If the general reaction to the one-off concept is 'Yuk!", then it's back to the Of mainstream pre-production concepts, this the one that sticks in my mind from 1981.

and formerly retract my previous statement.I was more meaning things like this:
Don't get me wrong, it looks fab!!! But such a waste as nothing like it, not even close will be sold.
Some of my favourites from the recent past.
Although I admit, that was one of its better angles...
As a rule, I'm not usually a fan of lazy rehashes of classic designs but for some reason this was an exception.
Mazda made a few variants of the Mk2 in coupe form but never this one. I think they eventually licensed it to Monocraft at some point, but they can only have made a handful at most.
Not strictly a concept, it simply didn't make it into production
Actually I think this did make it into limited production didn't it?
