So much want!

 

Didn't these get made in small numbers?

Mazda's M2 division made a few prototype NAs and a limited run of NBs.

I want a triumph fury.

Or a how about a 2000/stag coupe

 

[doobietoo]

Variation on a theme....

 

[Vince70]

Or how about a Metro saloon the only thing wrong with it is it isn't beige.

[Vince70]

Or a triumph sd2

This has got to be complete autoshite as it looks like a cross between a lada samara and a sd1.

I think BMW made a couple of e36 5 door hatchbacks for testing but as the compact never really caught on in America the idea was shelved.

Mg tf coupe anyone??

 

The prototype is in an mg dealer dahn sarf apparently.

 

Updated mg tf might have made it.

 

Mgzt coupe I think.

Some very interesting stuff but some need words as I've no idea what they are or how they're different from normal (mainly the BMW and Mercedes stuff)

 

They all are either prototypes that never made it into production, or customs handmade in small numbers by external coachbuilders/amateurs.

The versions shown here were sadly missing from the portfolio of their respective manufacturers, despite they might have yielded strong sales.

 

Which ones give you difficulties identifying?

One of the Ford studies during the pretext to the Mustang:

 

 

It had the project "Cardinal" (which ended up in Germany as the Taunus 12m P4) V4 drivetrain mounted midships.
