[edit] Notable Concept cars?

I think the (huge) Notable Concept cars table is a little arbitrary, very Americacentric, and totally redundant as there is a perfectly good category that lists Concept Cars. The table dominates the article. I'd like to delete it completely unless anyone has a better suggestion for making it useful and less obtrusive. Dino246 07:40, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

I'd like to see a list of NOTABLE concept cars, but short of demanding some sort of proof of notability the general trend has been to eliminate lists in favour of categories. So, set phasers to maximum. Greglocock 07:56, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Well I've pruned the list. I've left anything that has even some claim to fame or notability, but evenn then, some are a bit of a stretch.Greglocock 02:04, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

It would probably be best to create a section about today's concept cars. Possibly how they were different from those of the past and maybe show a few images. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Savevp (talk • contribs) 20:56, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

That would be a terrible fanboy list. If the concept cars are notable, that is, discussed in reliable sources, then they should go in. Otherwise, not.Greg Locock (talk) 21:23, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

see the history page as of today for the sort of tripe you'll get. Greg Locock (talk) 19:35, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

I agree 100%. The current list of historically notable concept cars is still largely arbitrary and very US-biased on its own. Any attempt to decide which of the 100s of new concepts each year are significant would be an open invitation to war between petrolhead forums. Dino246 (talk) 21:15, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
