The Buick xp-300

It might be cheating to choose the Buick xp-300 as this Sunday’s car, but I couldn't resist its Jettisons looks. The xp-300 was one of Buick’s 1951 concept cars and introduced style elements that eventually found their way into later Buick models. With a cockpit that more closely resembled a jet fighter than an automobile and a V8 fed by a combination of methanol and gasoline, the xp was never destined for showroom floors. Like all concept cars, it was an experiment in what could be done – no matter how impractical.
