Boys will be boys, especially when they are young. Pinup posters will be in order of the day, and it usually starts of with some form of exotic car, evolves to a barely dressed woman, and then both. Boys then grow up, the posters get removed, and we grow old, always remembering those curves, not of the woman, but of the car. That elusive dream we had as a child to one day own that car, now just a distant memory.
Here is a list of 10 Pinups, some made it into real life, most, well, will never be more than a depiction of what motoring could have been, nothing but a mere concept, but still stunning to stay the least.

This space-age Ford GT90 was first revealed to the world back in January 199. Pushing out a massive 720bhp from a quad-turbocharged V12, it could accelerate to 60mph in 3.1 seconds and up to 100mph in 6.2 seconds, then going to a mind blowing top speed of 235mph. This is Bugatti Veyron performance, but way before it even existed.

Sadly Mazda discontinued its oil thirsty predecessor, the twin-rotary RX 8 in 2011, but the spirit remains, this then is the planned replacement for 2013 ( 2 yeas late by now). Powered by a 300bhp twin turbo diesel, this beauty will be a lot more eco-friendly.

I am not able to find any information on whether this is a planned production, or even the power figures, but who cares, it looks fast, and kinda like a psychopath.

You've seen this one before, it became a big robot in one of the transformers movies. featuring scissor style doors, with night vision cameras and a hybrid engine, it does give the impression that It's evolved from the 1950, became more civilised, it's design tells a different story.

Designed by Philip Dean, a 2008 graduate from the Coventry University transport design course, this C-XC is supposedly to be powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, and be very eco friendly. I just prefer to look at it.

Designed by Maxime de Keiser, this is the 21st century replacement for the De Tomaso Pantera. Though not as futuristic as the lineup, it does have a certain appeal that makes it look like it will stand the test of time, sadly though, this is just a 3d render

This then is my favourite, a real world rendering of what the DeLorean DMC-12 might have evolved to if it still existed. I would definitely sell a kidney to buy one of these
I am so in love with some of the concept models in here. especially the De Lorean, why could not evolve into that pic so sad. Im not to keen on the the Honda, but the Aston looks Awesome, The Maserati looks as if it can take off and fly in outer space, absolutely in love with it
