BMW ZX6 Concept




That might work on the streets in Europe, but not here in California. We have more potholes than well..... insert a term here.

I concur the streets of the good ole USA have too many pot holes for this fine looking car ;o)

Now, isn't that the concept car that was used in a recent sci-fi movie? Don't recall the flick, but I seem to recall the trailers showing this car driving up walls and the like...

Yet another 2 seat vehicle.

I would note that some places in Europe still have cobble stone streets. For those that have not had the joy of riding a bicycle across these, it is a real pain in the posterior. This car would probably not be able to nivigate cobblestone streets successfully.

FORD GT


It was also hand made and in limited production, So It's beyond the Concept car stage. But Oh what a Car! To heck with Ferrari or Lamborghini's, FORD made a really good one there and now It's gone.

Oh what toys the Bat has. ;) That's the 1955 Lincoln Futura Concept Car.

I got to see the real Batmobile in Person back in the 60's at The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Of course only Robin showed up, As Batman couldn't make It He said. There weren't a whole lot of Kids and their parents there though.
