The original Silverado SS concept. Essentially a Corvette in truck form. Would have been clean.

Ew no. The only concept I can think of that doesn't look like a life-size Hot Wheels (ugly as f**k) is Dodge's Charger R/T concept from 1999. THAT is how the Charger should've been reborn. Anything else is just FUGLY...

It's gotta be hard to ****-up a concept car. Its all imagination with the absence of some reality.

Of those in the original link, that Caddy is badass.

Thank you, as soon as I saw this thread the charger came to mind first.

there was never a concept made, but pontiac should have made a new Fiero while they were in business still.
