Some cars are remembered because they sold well. Others are remembered because they looked like they escaped from someone’s imagination before the industry could stop them. These vehicles were not always perfect, practical, or commercially successful, but they were bold enough to leave a mark.

Some inspired future ideas, while others remained one-off moments that no manufacturer dared to repeat in quite the same way.
