High-Concept Search

While some of us at the Buzz get more excited about the Pinewood Derby than gas-guzzling Optimus Prime-style trucks, we don't aim to steer you wrong—there's nothing like the Detroit Auto Show (+864%) to spin the wheels of Search.

The North American International Auto Show (+1,826%) celebrates its 100th anniversary this year. Over the past few decades of its long history the concept car has stolen the show in Detroit. So what if you can't buy them for years to come, if ever. Some designs might make you car sick, but no one said the cutting edge was comfy.

This year's popular designs in Search include the Ford Interceptor, Acura's Advanced Sports Car concept, the revised (but still bitchin') Camaro concept car, and the Chrysler Imperial. Call them lane hogs, over-compensators, or show-stoppers—the concept car is indeed the once and future king of the road.
