Cool Interesting Concept Pics

Did anyone forget about the Pontiac Rageous? I think they should make it...





and here's a cool concept I've seen online....how come we don't have aftermarket bodykits like this, that aren't super rice...?

The shaker, other then being completely pointless, would not look good on just any firebird/TA.

My contributions:
GM's 1958 Firebird III
Don't know much about it but typical of the 50's concepts.


The Corvette Stingray concept bottom.
Funny thing about this car, the corvette designer Arcus Duntov was offshore fishing and caught a small shark and loved the color and lines of the fish which inspired the Stingray. He had shark mounted and took it to the design team and told them that he wanted the concept car painted like the fish. Well after several attempts the team could not match the color to that of the shark so with out Duntov knowing the team painted the fish to match the car. I did a report on the Vette in high school.

Im sorry, but that is not good looking IMO.

Its overkill, It looks like a hyper car that is "squinting".

I really don't know. I would have to say that one day I look at it, and think it's pretty neat, and then somedays I look at it, and think that I am glad that I don't own one of those, but do own my WS6, with Ram Air!!!!!!!

Get it and I'll drive it on your off-days. WS6s are sweet, but if you drove it, you would never see yourself driving by like we see Ram Airs today. Additionally, that car has a 421 SD under the hood, so chances are the best view most would see would be something like this [IMG][/IMG]

The Heritage was never a concept car, it was a tribute car worked on as a team-building project with GM and UAW. The only concept here was to give a unique good-bye to the F-Body, and I will say, nicely done!

I think the Heritage car is one of the ugliest T/As I've seen.

I think that Heritage T/A looks a lot (I mean A LOT) better that the LS1 Ram Air T/As. My favorite part of the body was the old school duck lip spoiler.

First ones remind me of a chiseled body kit for an Rx-8, or an idea they scrapped for the x-men Rx-8
