Re: Looking Back: 1993 Chevrolet Highlander Concept

At around 2:03-2:04 in the Stinger video, what's that piece of electronic gear?

The Sunfire concept looks good too. They would have sold a ton of them if they stayed more true to the concept

What movie is the Blazer in?

Looks like a portable radio to me.

I don't think so. The whole front end of the production one looks better to me. The facia on the concpet just doesn't look right with the foglights. And the hood scoop looks out of place. The wheels on the concept were better, but similar, just a deep dish style, which are not typically used on FWD cars because of the offset. The side exhaust never stood a chance, but the body is curvier, which looks nice, I'll admit, bit simething about the "big hips" on the '90's Pontiacs bothered me. They made them look like girly cars. The Firebird and Sunfire suffered the worst of this.
