Forgotten Concept Cars

Russia has been in the news a lot lately, and I came across a story about 12 Concept Cars Produced & Forgotten in the Soviet Union

Curious vehicles for sure. And somewhere, you KNOW someone is saying, "I wish they had produced that!" Interesting that the homemade ones are very DeLorean-like in their "boxiness"

Me, I'm still waiting for my flying car promised to me at the 1964 World's Fair by GM ;)

    Well, the 1986 Dodge turbo Interceptor eventually became the Veyron. As for concepts I wish they would have put out.. my top 3 are

    1. 2012 Jeep J12
    2. 1996 Pontiac Rageous
    3. 2014 Ford Ranger / F100 (Ranger from Australia)

    @odie6l, seems like Jeep was always coming up with great concepts for the auto shows.

    Oh yea... like the Jeep Hurricane I saw at the Philly Auto Show a few years ago. Had steering on all 4 wheels and could sit in place and spin in a circle. And we all know how handy that is!

    Almost forgot that one. That would have been a great on-road sighting!
