So, There were quite a few forgotten concepts in 2006. Some were good, some were shit, and some didn't make any sense at all.

I've rounded up some Car magazines. 88mph right into 06.

The first find. The Hyundai Talus, A fairly attractive (Except from the front) and modern Suv. Wonder why it never happened?

Another forgotten concept was the Mitsubishi Eclipse Ralliart. No, it wasn't the kind that receptionists and Teachers drove. Brembo Brakes, and all.

The Volkswagen Gx3. Don't do Cocaine kiddies.

Then, we have the Toyota F3R. Who's idea was this one?

Then, we have a full page Ad about Dick pills.

All of these forgotten concepts came from these three magazines. I purposefully didn't include the Pontiac Ute and the Miura concept, because everybody knows about them.

That Hyundai reminds me a lot of the Tesla Model S.

I sort of got vibes from the Tesla X also.

That rally art had the evo drivetrain in it! I actually like the way it sits

Yeah, I like the looks of it, the performance wouldn't be bad either. They should have ended the Eclipse production with a bang.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the original Eclips prototype of that body style was supposed to have at least the 4G 63 with all-wheel-drive. But then the accountant stepped in and said no Gallant V6 and front-wheel-drive.

Look at this thing it's apparently a 2015 concept

Hmmm, I believe so. But I'm not positive on that. It's too bad that Mitsubishi isn't selling much these days.

The new Mirage is kind of a throwback to Daewoo.

That's a nice looking Car. A little I8 in the wheels it seems.

I can't be the only one, Haha
