Well, I'm sure GM would keep their concepts being the company it is (or was).

There's been tons of interesting concepts, but what is their point exactly? I know some show off new styling cues, but some just look ridiculous. Hence, the Buick Regal Concept.
It's just wierd to see 'em travel for 1 year, and never seen again, hence that GT-R Mustang race car.

BTW, did Giugiaro ever drive one of their Nazcas in the Monaco Supercar GP? I heard it was entered in it or some Gumball some years ago.
