    I have always liked the Audi Avus and the Alfa Romeo Brea. Peugeot has had some lovely prototypes as well. Sorry, no pics.

    Or what about the Portofino. You think someone said, "you know two doors that swing up on a Lambo just isn't enough."

    The Khamsin was produced from 1974 till 1982. Production total 430. So no concept car.

    ...and the BRAVO!! If they had build that car, I had it today!
    But I really loved my LP 400 "Perescopia". A space-ship on roads!

    Ciao!

    And the Silhouette was also production albeit in low numbers. I believe only about 9 RHD cars were made. I've had the pleasure of seeing a few of them.
    Also cannot forget this :-The Alfa Iguana

    One of the Bertone concepts looks like a Nissan GTR concept. I guess the Japanese decided to rip-off a design yet again.
