My favs
1. Ford GT40: Perfect; I would add the "Gurney Bubble." But I'm nit picking. It is perfect.
BUILD IT! BUILD IT! BUILD IT! Then, RACE IT! RACE IT! RACE IT! I fear this won't happen
because of Ford financial woes.
2. Ford Forty Nine: Convertible. The perfect Pimp Mobile. I love it. But I understand it will not
be built due to Ford's money problems.

My not favs.
1. Acura RD-X: Wow! Ugly
2. Chevy Belair: GT40 = Good Retro. Chevy Belair = Bad Retro.
3. Mitus S.U.P Cabrio: Ugly

Wow, the Cadillac Cien (750hp!) and the Pontiac Solstice (could this be the Opel in disguise?) look better then what I usually expect from GM...

It look's ok, but you know if they build it will
be a parts bin special like the Fiero. Then when
they finnally get it right, they'll cancel the car.

Ahh, don't you just love concept cars like the Pontiac Solstice...240hp roadsters...that never make it into production...hmmm... Makes you feel like you own a concept car eh?

I think the Solstice's body looks like its been through the digestive tract.
