Ten Dream Cars Your Favorite Automakers Refuse To Make
Carmakers love to create fantastic concepts only to tell us the world is not ready for them yet. And never will. We miss these ten cars that almost existed the most.
10.) Mazda Miata Coupe
The answer is always Miata, I know. But Mazda actually built 200 of these, only to tease us forever. Well done!

9.) New Pontiac GTO
Bob Lutz says Pontiac was on it. It's a shame GM wasn't.

8.) Scion FR-S Turbo
Logic tells us Toyota will build an FR-S cabriolet and a turbocharged coupe. But they deny it, so for now, we keep our fingers crossed for a blown Subaru BRZ.
7.) Jeep Forward Control
People want a new FC Jeep. Everybody knows that, including Chrysler. Just ping Sergio Marchionne.

6.) Mazdaspeed5
Every dad dreams of this. Just like a Miata Coupe.

5.) BMW M8
Unless you consider a hybrid a worthy candidate, BMW doesn't have a rapid luxury coupé in their lineup at the moment. No, the M6 isn't one. That's an overweight gran turismo. The M8, on the other hand, could have been the ultimate BMW.
The problem is, the new 8 Series is called the Rolls-Royce Wraith.

4.) Mid-engined Corvette
Some say Corvette's shouldn't go mid-engined. But then, just look at a Mosler...

3.) Jaguar C-X75
The C-X75 prototype is pretty close to being a finished product. Jaguar just isn't big enough to build it right now. But the world needs a new XJ220 for sure.

2.) Volvo R Wagon
Volvo talks about big power Polestar cars, but delivers little. We don't want R-Design, we want R Wagons. For the whole family.
1.) Cadillac Flagship
