Why is it that concept cars are always fucking stupid and more appalling compared to what's actually greenlit.

Honestly I've grown a soft spot for it after watching Breaking Bad.
One of the prototype looking vehicles that I like is the nissan cube

It's a honest box, nothing more, nothing less. Just a box.
There's this modified Ford Granada which someone apparently transplanted with a Koenigsegg engine. That's not why I like it; to me, it looks like the perfect combination of elegance, sportiness and 80's styling:

This isn't the ugliest vehicle to me, but as an Australian and a Ford fan, Ford Australia had a terrible send-off of the Ford Falcon via the Sprint models. The body itself is fine, but the rear is ruined by the sticker on the quarter panel and the ugly lip spoiler:

I love me some mad-max looking cars, especially when you can see how it was made like on Roadkill.
The Rotsun, a rusty ass 1971 Datsun 240z with a Chevy 4.3L V6 boosted by a turbo from a Ford Powerstroke diesel.

And this glorious thing, Stubby Bob. A 1950 Ford F6 dump truck that was cut up and shortened, with a supercharged Chevy 454, a sketchy ass V-drive next to your legs in the cab and the capability to do some sick fucking wheelies.

eh. I like rolls silver shadows and older volvos and such but euro cars just aren't my thing.
and ofc anything that participated in group b racing looked badass
I just don't really like new cars in general, though Australia is pumping out some cool stuff.
The Ford Capri yisssssssssss.
[t]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/32814946/Ford-Capri-mk1_05.jpg[/t]
It was basically the Mustang of Europe. You take a sedan, put a 2 door body on it with a bonnet so long you can land a plane on because sedan chassis. And wham, cheap performance car that works.

And then there's the Mustang of Japan. Glorious Japanese steel folded over 1000 times. Same concept as well, sedan chassis, 2 door body, wham.
i pretty much hate all pickup trucks even though im texan
but theres just something about the old ridgelines that i just love

Maybe when 3D printing gets better then we can have replica Tucker 48s for sale. Or at least make another one to replace the Tucker lost in a fire.
Lets get some more Roadkill and Dirt Every Day vehicles in here.

Tbh the thing that I can't stand the most about Mustangs is the Mustang badge itself. It just seems like Ford - by replacing the Ford badge with a rip-off prancing horse - try to make the Mustang more-prestigious than it actually is. As if it's too good for the blue oval badge.
Ford Performance Vehicles did a similar thing when they updated from the BF-series Falcon to the FG-series in 2008 - when they replaced the classic blue oval with their own FPV badge. It just didn't work for me.

Every American manufacturer did that with at least one vehicle, usually their flagships. Chevrolet did it on their Impala, AMC did it on the Marlin, Ford on the Thunderbird and Mustang.
