What happens to these cars?
Concept cars that is... It just occurred to me that you see tons of new "concept" cars every year. The auto industry spends millions building them... Do they just destroy them afterwards? Or is there some huge concept car repository? I am referring to the actual "concept" cars...

Rep Power: 0 one of 3 things.
A) It gets crushed and recycled
B) (very rare) it gets put in a mueseum
C) (even more rare) some high level exec for the company gets to drive it home.

Rep Power: 0 many (if not most) don't have engines; or lack other essential things that keep them off the road. 90% of the concept cars are designed just for looks... they don't have any functional design -- things like bumpers that actually work, crumple zones, visibility for passengers, etc... which is really a shame (and why these cars never make it to the streets).
