Finally something new to discuss... Silver coupe fiberglass concept

.....as trivial as it may be...

We can now confirm the existence of a Silver fiberglass coupe concept... that has been under wraps in Australia.

Not sure how long, but it makes sense they did one for the engineers to have onsite.

There are updates to the show calendar for concept appearances. Included in those new dates are tentative appearances for the silver fiberglass car in Manilla and Shanghai.

New tentative shows added... Kansas City, Knoxville, Albuquerque, and Pittsburgh.

This is a 2nd push car, like the red fiberglass car, that was done for the developement team in Australia.

Yes, I was being sarcastic.

serious question...since it was for the development team in Oz...Could it be any closer to production looking?

and

Bob Lutz said that he has to look at the door handles to tell which one is which...so, are there more cars out there that we don't know about yet...some being a production version?

The Australian push car was probably done shortly after the red push car. I would expect it to be a clone of the red push car.

As far as Lutz and Peper's comments.... I would guess it's most likely the Tech Center cranked out a mockup of the production car, and this is what they were referring to. That's pure speculation on my behalf.
