Fortunately some styling elements or features make it into production cars.
The MC4 was so sweet, what a shame they didn't make it into something streetable.

Love that Ghia Focus!
I remember seeing that concept in Motor Trend years ago. At first I didn't like it at all. About a year later, I fall upon the issue again, and for some reason, I thought it was GREAT! I still do, and if anyone knows of where I can get more pics, let me know!
