"Who knows, they might just sell a few of them"

Hah hah.  Why don\'t you try pitching that to the management of any large automaker.  :D  Let me know how that works out ....  Hah hah.

Concept cars are supposed to be the wild extreme of a design idea, but they would not sell if they were mass produced.  The public cannot change their tastes that fast.  No matter how cool something may look as a concept, the person who\'s getting ready to put down $30,000 for a car also needs to think about how they\'re going to be ridiculed by the neighbors for buying such a wierd looking vehicle.  Even if you don\'t care what the neighbors think, you also have to consider what strangers will think, and whether you car will be a magnet for car thieves and vandals.

In case you haven\'t done it before, I\'ll warn you:  Paying $30,000 or more of your own cash for a car makes you a little more conservative whether you like it or not.

I tend to agree, Cored. Before I bought my new Celica, I was not near as tight with my money and I would think about all the expensive cars I\'d like to own. Now I am paying on a $20K car and I don\'t ever want to be in this position again. Espically after I realize the fact that once I pay for this car, it may very well be time for another.
