If I somehow undergo human binary fission or discover a time-turner in order to take more classes, then I may throw in a global health minor. I want to become a human rights advocate in developing nations and help to establish legal framework to protect vulnerable minorities. If that doesn’t work out, I’ve always wanted to help name the flavors of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream, so that’s my back-up plan. Advice for underclassmen: Do what you love and don’t be afraid to fail. If you spend your time preoccupied with getting A’s or the highest SAT score, you’re going to prevent yourself from taking risks and finding your passions What did it take to get where you are today?

LOCAL DENTIST MICHAEL TESSIER REVEALS SECRET WAYS TO SAVING YOUR TEETH Each one of your teeth is anchored in a socket in the bone. Each tooth is suspended or anchored in its own socket by ligaments. The gum tissue attaches to the tooth at the top of the socket. If one gets food or plaque stuck between or around the teeth, the gums can become sore and inflamed, bleeding by just the touch of a toothbrush. Just like getting a sliver stuck underneath a fingernail. This inflammation can cause that attachment of the gums to the tooth to deteriorate. This deterioration starts at the gum-line, in the form of a pocket. As that pocket deepens, it will extend into and erode the bone. Eventually, the boney support for the tooth will be gone, and the tooth will fall out. When we dentists or dental hygienists discover this condition, we can perform what is called a laser-assisted new attachment procedure (LANAP) to reattach gums to the tooth. This laser kills the bacteria that exists in the bone, allowing the bone to regenerate. It also creates access for the hygienist to deep clean those pockets, scraping the calculus off the sides of the tooth way below the gum-line. Sometimes we place an antibiotic deep into that pocket, furthering eradication of bacteria. The procedure allows the gum tissue to reattach to the tooth. Before the development of our new laser, the periodontal treatment was painful or uncomfortable, involving scalpels, scraping the gums off the underlying . Our new laser technique is much less invasive, and your recovery is now almost totally painless (hard-to-believe, but true). While many of my patients call me the pain-free dentist, I’m happy to be of help in helping you to save your precious teeth and at the same time making your dental experience a comfortable one.

Officers and members of Mission Viejo / Saddleback Valley Elks Lodge and the nine (9) other Orange Coast District Lodges of Orange County recently returned from the California, Hawaii State Association (CHEA) annual convention held in San Diego, CA. One of the highlights of the meeting was the installation of the new CHEA President for 2012 -2013, Arthur H. Echternacht of the Santa Ana Lodge. Echternacht has served as a District Leader of the ten (10) Orange Coast District Lodges since 2008. As CHEA’s chief executive officer, he will preside over the one hundred seventy four (174) Lodges that make up the CHEA. His appointment to the high position is considered a great honor to him and to all the Elks Lodges in the Orange Coast District. Wife Shirley will accompany him as he tours the Association Lodges over the coming 52 weeks. Also installed at the meeting was District State Vice President Rick Blake from the Newport Harbor Elks Lodge. Rick’s duties will include the supervision of the District’s chairpersons and programs. Another major event held at the convention was the Exalted Ruler’s March for the Association’s Major Project fund, affectionately known as the March for the Purple Pig. The march raises money to fill the piggy banks and pay for Elk’s therapists whose mission is to diagnose and treat hearing and sight impaired children throughout the Association. This year, Lodge leaders from throughout California and Hawaii marched across the stage to present checks to Association Trustees totaling $2,560,000. The ten (10) Orange Coast Lodge’s contribution to that total
was $176,104. The Major Project’s theme child for the year, 6-year old Evelynn Pacheco, and her family were on hand as guests of the CHEA. Evelynn was born with a heart murmur and with severe sight problems. Early testing by CHEA therapists was instrumental in diagnosing and (L to R): Mission Viejo / Saddleback Valley Elks treating her condition. Lodge Past Exalted Rulers Charlie Hart and Because of the early Irene Romero (Elks Lodge Americanism Essay intervention by CHEA, Chairperson), Americanism Essay Winner Evelynn’s condition has Brandon LaSalle with Mom Jenna and Dad Brian, CHEA Americanism Chairman Tom Conlon greatly improved and she is today an active kindergarten student, recently awarded “Student of the Month” honors. Mom Stephanie delivered a message of gratitude to the Elks assembled while Evelynn charmed the attendees with her giggles and smiles. She received a standing ovation, ending her visit riding up the center isle of the convention center on her new gift, 6-year old Evelynn Pacheco, 2012 a two-wheel bicycle, made possible by -2013 CHEA Major Project Theme the many donations to the Purple Pig.

This Summer, Drink Pink! By David White With Memorial Day behind us, summer has officially arrived. This means more time outside, and consequently, a different cocktail menu. For lazy days by the pool or at the beach, it’s hard to beat a piña colada, margarita, or other tropical drink. When enjoying a hot dog or hamburger at a barbeque, beer is the obvious choice. For wine drinkers, finding the perfect summertime match can be daunting. When lounging on the deck or patio, red wine can seem too heavy. And sometimes, that simple white wine is just, well, too simple. That’s why it’s hard to beat a crisp rosé when the weather is warm. It’s easy to dismiss pink wine. After all, most Americans associate rosé with cheap, sweet “blush” wines, like Sutter Home’s white Zinfandel. This style of wine traces its roots to the early 1970s. Back then, demand for white wine outpaced supply, so many California winemakers started producing white wine from red grapes, taking advantage of the fact that even red grapes give off white juice. In 1975, the winemaker at Sutter Home, Bob Trinchero, had a problem while making his white Zinfandel. A portion of the wine experienced a “stuck
fermentation,” meaning the yeast died before all the sugar had converted into alcohol. Rather than “fix” the wine by adding more yeast, Trinchero decided to let it sit for two weeks. When he revisited the wine, he knew it would be a hit -- and Sutter Home’s modern-day white Zinfandel was born. Countless imitators would soon follow. This style of pink wine remains quite popular and it will always have fans. More often than not, though, white Zinfandel and other blush wines are just too sweet. Many taste more like Kool-Aid or strawberry fruit punch than wine. True rosés are bone dry, textured, and refreshing. And they can be just as complex and food friendly as traditional wines. True rosés are made in one of two ways. In the first method, the winemaker crushes red wine grapes and leaves the juice in contact with the skin for a brief period, typically one or two days. She then discards the skins, allowing the juice to finish fermentation on its own. Thanks to the short period of skin contact, the wine retains some color. Here, rosé is the only goal. In the second method, rosé is a byproduct of red wine fermentation. Red wine obtains color, tannin, struc-
ture, and flavors from grape skins. If a winemaker wants to increase the skin-to-juice ratio during fermentation, she can simply remove some juice at an early stage. This pink juice can be fermented separately to create rosé. This method is known as saignée. True rosés have been a part of life in France for centuries. In the southeastern part of the country, residents and visitors alike have long recognized the splendor of pairing rosé with warm weather and coastal cuisine. France remains the source of many fantastic rosés - great examples can be found in Bandol, Tavel, Sancerre, and many other regions. When looking for French rosés, it’s best to look for reliable importers, like Kermit Lynch, Beaune Imports, Weygandt-Metzler, and Robert Kacher. All four bring in a number of knockout wines. Plenty of delightful pink wines come from outside France, as well. Across the world, more and more producers are making top-notch, authentic rosés. In the United States, some producers to look for include Alexander Valley Vineyards, which makes a splendid rosé of Sangiovese, Copain, and Ponzi. Another favorite is made by Mulderbosch in South Africa. The world is still awash in bad rosés,
of course. It’s still quite easy to accidently wind up with a bottle that’s too heavy, alcoholic, or sweet. So if your local wine shop offers tastings, be sure to stop in when rosés are open - you might find a crisp, refreshing wine that’s worth stocking up on. After all, pink wine is the perfect accompaniment to summer. So why not grab a case? David White, a wine writer, is the founder and editor of Terroirist.com.

Annual Enchanted Evening Fundraiser Nets $100,000 for Vocational Visions An estimated $100,000 in net proceeds was generated at Vocational Visions Enchanted Evening fundraising event that honored Pavilion’s Stores as its 2012 Employer of the Year. About 380 guests donned western attire for the “Enchanted Evening…with County Flair!” themed event at the Irvine Marriott Hotel. Pavilion’s has been instrumental in facilitating employment opportunities for men and women with developmental and other disabilities at seven of their south Orange County stores. Pavilion’s managers are committed to hiring Vocational Visions participants for long-term employment and go out of their way to accommodate their special scheduling needs. Chaired by community leaders Linda Baird and Donna Haskill, the event began with an expansive silent auction featuring over 175 items, followed by multi course dinner, awards presentation to Pavilions, live auction and live country western entertainment by Rodeo Drive. Master Sommelier Peter Neptune served as event emcee and auctioneer for the lively affair. An evening highlight was a heartwarming musical presentation by Vocational Visions participants including western dance routines to Walking After Midnight, Crazy Little Thing Called Love and Happy Trails. Vocational Visions has provided comprehensive vocational, economic and social services to Orange County adults with disabilities since 1974. Based in Mission Viejo, Calif., the nonprofit organization creates possibilities for men and women with disabilities by providing on and off-site job opportunities, a variety of social programs and rehabilitation and medical assistance as needed.

HISTORIC LE MANS RACERS AND OTHER CLASSIC CARS BRING HISTORY TO LIFE AT THIS MONTH’S CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE More than 250 classic cars and vintage motorcycles will line the St. Regis golf links during the Concours Historic Le Mans racers and some of the most famous collectible car marques in the world will be featured during the 30th anniversary HYPERLINK “http://www. danapointconcours.org” Dana Point Concours d’Elegance® on June 23-24, at the St. Regis Monarch Beach resort in Dana Point, Calif. As part of a field of more than 250 American and European autos, the event will honor “Legends of Le Mans: Racing in the ‘60s,” as well as the 50th anniversary of Shelby American. Enthusiasts will enjoy a rare opportunity to see a special collection of cars owned by Checkered Flag 200 Founder Bruce Meyer, along with a variety of classic cars and motorcycles from across the country. “We’re bringing together one of the greatest show fields ever in Southern California,” said Jeff Spellens, president of the Dana Point Concours. “The variety and quality is truly breath-taking. A trio of cars that represent the Golden Era of Le Mans will sit near examples from the Nethercutt Museum. Nearby, American hot rodder Carroll Shelby’s legendary cars will be parked close to Ducati’s that raced decades ago. We’ll bring history to life through some of the most important cars ever built.” As part of the Le Mans celebration Dana Point Concours will display rare competition cars from Ferrari, Shelby, Chevrolet and Jaguar. From the collection of the 2012 Dana Point Concours d’Elegance Automotive Icon Award recipient Bruce Meyer is a 1961 Ferrari 250 SWB that won its class at Le Mans in 1961. Placing third overall, this classic won the Manufacturer’s Championship for Ferrari. Meyer will also exhibit the first Corvette to compete in the 24 hour endurance race. Owned and sponsored by Briggs Cunningham in 1960, the team finished eighth over-all and First in Class. The Corvette’s mortal enemy will also be present as Meyer’s displays a 1962 Shelby Cobra, which was the first production Cobra ever built. Like all the original Cobra’s, it was originally a street car, then modified by Ford Racing of Europe to FIA specifications, including a 289 c.i.d. engine, rack-and-pinion steering, Weber carbs and flares. Cobras were a mainstay of Le Mans racing in the 1960s. Dana Point Concours Unveils Feature Cars Line-up (page 2/3) One of the most famous endurance racers a decade earlier, a 1956 Jaguar Factory Team Longnose D-Type is scheduled to be exhibited at the Concours. One of six long nose D-Types constructed during 1956 as a factory team car, this beautiful racer carries the serial-number Page 12
of XKD604. It was the only ‘56 D-Type to compete with an independent de Dion rear suspension. Recipients of the coveted Best of Show award last year, the Nethercutt’s will return with three beautiful vehicles from their private collection. The group includes a front-wheel drive 1930 Ruxton, which is one of less than 500 built. It features unusual horizontal bands of color to emphasize the long-low silhouette of the body. Body number 23, the Ruxton generates 100 horsepower, which was a stunning achievement at the time. Another vehicle from the Nethercutt collection is a 1932 Ford 18 hot rod originally built by legendary hot rod builder Tom “Itchy” Otis. It sports genuine 1932 Ford components on the chassis and body with a 327 c.i.d. Corvette engine and fourspeed transmission. A second ‘32 Ford Atterbury roadster hot rod built by Dick “Magoo” Megugorac will also be displayed from the collection. Commissioned by George & Darcy Atterbury, this awardwinning ‘32 “Deuce” roadster features a supercharged 350 c.i.d. Chevy V8. “The eclectic collection of vehicles at the Concours represents some of the very best examples of notable automotive marques in the world,” noted Spellens. “From Ferrari to Ford, General Motors, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz, Shelby and Kurtis Kraft, each of these vehicles come with a unique and impressive history.” To honor 50 years of Shelby American, the Concours will highlight vehicles from the manufacturer, including a Nightmist Blue on black 1967 Shelby GT500. Restored to factory-specifications, this GT500 is fully documented by Shelby American Automobile Club and is one of only four delivered to Spain for the festival of Seville in 1967. The Shelby was then
The Ladera Ranch News
used as a display car at the festival of Barcelona later that year. A 1953 Kurtis Kraft 500 M will exhibit on the St. Regis golf links. Frank Kurtis, who designed the M model sport car, built only 18 examples and had the bodies manufactured by Robert McCulloch. This 500 M is one of only nine still known to exist and comes with a correct Cadillac V8, 331 c.i.d. engine and original Edelbrock intake with Stromberg carburetors. Mercedes-Benz will be represented with a pristine 1957 220S Cabriolet. Only 3,429 total 220S Cabriolet’s were produced between 1956 and 1959. This
Mercedes-Benz features a Type M180, six-cylinder engine and was hand-built at Sindelfingen to the very highest standards set forth by the European auto manufacturer. Guests interested in seeing these rare beauties can purchase tickets online at “http://www.danapointconcours.org/ tickets-public” or at the gate. Vehicle exhibitors can download a registration form and send to the appropriate chairman as noted on the documents. Deadline to register is May 18, 2012, for inclusion in the program.

PACIFIC SYMPHONY ROCKS THE END OF THE 2011-12 SEASON It’s a flashback of the best kind, when Pacific Symphony concludes its 2012-13 season with one of pop music’s heavy hitters: Grammy Awardwinning vocalist songwriter Peter Cetera, singing hits from his solo career and as lead vocalist of the band Chicago. With his instantly recognizable vocals and classic love songs, Cetera has been a pop icon since his early days with the legendary rock band Chicago, where he served as singer, songwriter and bass player from 1968-1986. During his time with the band, Chicago recorded 18 of the most memorable albums of a generation, including the hits “25 or 6 to 4,” “You’re the Inspiration,” “If you Leave me Now,” “No Explanation,” and “Baby, What a Big Surprise.” The concert takes place Thursday through Saturday, June 7-9, at 8 p.m., in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. Tickets are $25-160; for more information or to purchase tickets call (714) 755-5799 or visit www. PacificSymphony.org. As a solo artist, Cetera has recorded 10 timehonored CDs including his No. 1 hits: the Academy Award-nominated song “The Glory of Love” from the hit movie “The Karate Kid II,” “The Next Time I Fall” with Amy Grant, “No Explanation” from the mega hit film, “Pretty Woman” and the unforgettable “Restless Heart.” For his concerts with the Symphony, Cetera brings with him a five-piece band featuring Boh Cooper on piano, Bruce Gaitsch on guitar, Gene Miller on guitar and vocals, Kim Keyes on percussion and vocals, Dan Needham on percussion, plus sound engineer Keith Thompson—all backed by the lush sounds
of the orchestra. Led by Principal Pops Conductor Richard Kaufman, the Symphony not only sends the season out on a worthy note, but sets the mood for a sizzling summer by opening the program with a medley of Beach Boys surf songs and other hot sounds including Elmer Bernstein’s Suite from “Animal House,” John Williams “Olympic Fanfare,” Fisher’s “Chicago (That Toddlin’ Town),” Fratena’s “Central Park Rag” and Sousa’s patriotic “The Stars and Stripes Forever.” “On the second half we have one of rock’s legends, and on the first half, we feature music that celebrates summer, created by some of the greatest composers of all time—from John Williams to The Beach Boys,” says Principal Pops Conductor Kaufman. “It’s the perfect way to conclude what has been a season of wonderful music and performers—and look ahead to summer!” The Thursday, June 7, concert is sponsored by Teresa and Robert Nichols, and the Saturday, June 9, concert is sponsored by Orva and David
Schramm. The Symphony’s Pops series receives additional support from American Airlines, The Westin South Coast Plaza, K-Earth 101 and PBS SoCal.

Gary Calvaneso, Mary Baker, Sandra McElwee, Miriam Kang, Linda Matulis
When your primary care physician tells you that you need to see a specialist, most patients assume their doctor will refer them to a quality physician. After all, anyone who is going to treat you should be board-certified, well versed in the latest techniques and have an impressive record of successes with other patients; right? Well it may come as a surprise that the referral system doesn’t actually work that way. Most people assume their primary care doctor has a rolodex of top notch specialists to pass along as needed. In today’s fast paced world, primary care physicians simply don’t have the time to go out, research and meet with other specialists. With specialists operating margins falling over the past decade and health care reforms putting pressure on their bottom line, quality specialists have a need to do a better job educating referring doctors and patients about their expertise. That’s where 2 local residents, Gary Calvaneso and Sandra McElwee who met through Saddleback Church, decided there was an opportunity to work with quality specialists and educate referring primary care physicians about their skills. In early 2011, they formed a referral marketing company called The Referral Specialists (www.TheReferralSpecialists.com).
Page 16
The Referral Specialists provide practice representatives and referral marketing services to specialty physicians. Practice representatives are experienced healthcare professionals who call on primary care physicians and complementary specialists to educate them about their specialist client’s expertise. Since starting their business, their specialty physician clients have experienced positive gains as a direct result of their services. Typically these specialists triple or quadruple the number of referring physicians who refer to them and increase their bottom line. In fact, the Referral Specialists business caught the attention of the Wall Street Journal’s Smart Money magazine where they were mentioned by name. “Our business connects quality specialists with PCP’s (Primary Care Physicians) through referral marketing, said Gary Calvaneso, Managing Partner. Educating the medical community not only benefits everyone in the medical market but also produces jobs which is something that our community really needs”. Aside from achieving positive results for their clients, what makes The Referral Specialists unique is their dedication to helping those that are unemployed and need help. For Calvaneso, it is something he takes to heart.
The Ladera Ranch News
Nearly every Monday for the past 6 years, Calvaneso has been a volunteer at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, listening to and coaching unemployed people with a smile and an offer of hope. “For our practice reps, we only consider candidates that are unemployed” said Calvaneso. “We are not interested in recruiting people that already have a job and an income. We prefer to support those that do not. It is our way of giving back to the community by helping those in need which is a principle of our faith.” “You would be surprised at the high level of unemployed talent there is out there” said Sandra McElwee, Managing Partner. “One of our practice reps is a senior woman with over 25 years of pharmaceutical sales experience calling on physicians’ offices. She was out of work for over 2 years before joining up with us and has done a great job for our clients”. Not only do the Referral Specialists focus on working with unemployed candidates, but they also do the same for suppliers. “We wanted to apply our faith based principles of helping those in need to all aspects of our business, said Calvaneso”. “Even the caterer we use is trying to generate income through a home based business. What employers need to understand is that being unemployed has nothing to do with talent or quality. We carefully screen our suppliers, looking for skill and quality first. The doctors all rave about her food and she now gets additional business from them”. “We have a stay-at-home mom who makes some of the best toffee you’ll ever taste, right out of her home kitchen. Here again, our clients rave about her toffee and have provided her additional business” said Calvaneso. For his volunteerism in supporting people in transition in 2011, Calvaneso received the Orange County Spirit of Volunteerism Award as part of the leadership team managing Saddlebacks Career Coaching and Counseling program.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-573-1965 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-11-482279-RM . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney.

Concept Cars - Cars that Never Left the Garage! Concept cars are generally made just for one purpose- to test a concept. Manufacturers use the concept cars to test customer reaction to new styles or technology they are planning to use in their future productions. These types of cars are used in Auto shows, where the customers are given a sneak-preview. After gauging their reactions, the designs undergo changes before they are made road-safe or cost effective. Many just end up being destroyed or some really good ones end up in Museums. Few of the top concept cars which never saw the light are listed below:
BMW M1 1) 21st Century BMW M1 One of the top auto manufacturers in the world, BMW had created the BMW M1 in the early ‘70s. In 2008, to mark the 30th anniversary of their first and only mid-engine-car, they revealed their new BMW M1. It was created as homage to the original one. The classic Liquid Orange Metallic paintwork, popup headlights with recessed lamps, squinting front end reflect the classic M style. The original M series was powered by a 207kW 3.5-litre inline six-cylinder that propelled the car to a super speed of about 260km/h. The new version would surely have surpassed that. To the dismay of many car-lovers, the manufacturers for some reason did not go any further and the car never went into production.
Mercedes C111 2) Mercedes C111 The next name to be mentioned is Page 18
surely Mercedes. In 1969, Mercedes C111 was created by the company to research on rotary engine car. The C111 was first shown at Geneva Motor show in 1970. It was fitted with four-rotor Wankel engine with 350 hp and a speed on 180mph. The most interesting feature of Mercedes C111 was the gull-winged doors, doors which opened upwards. It would have been an awesome feature if it had made to production. The car had high fuel consumption and emissions which prevented the hope of the car being ever produced. And also the company was said to have Saab Aero X some financial troubles, which led to the proj- charged V6 which ran on pure ethaect being nol, thus cutting down on CO2 emisshelved. sions. The engine produced 400hp and a top speed of about 155mph. 3 ) Saab considered the Aero-X as the Chevrolet canvas to explore the potentials of C o r v e t t e the future and didn’t build any more Four-Rotor of these super-cars. Another name on 5) Jeep Hurricane the top of The last one I liked is the Hurthe carmaker’s list is the Chevrolet. The Corvette is one of their spectacular models. It was made in early ‘70s to compete with Mercedes-Benz and Mazda which had 4-rotor engines at that time. It also featured a Wankel engine, with an estimated output of 350 hp. Aside from this; the model had a very sleek design. The radically low and pointed nose and a sharp, sleek tail and the folding gull-wing-doors were nothing less than amazing. Did I mention that it was one of the James Bond cars!! Due to whatever Chevrolet Corvette reason, even this Bond-car stayed put in the garage. ricane by Chrysler-Jeep.

or move sideways. One would think it was an animal rather than a vehicle! Do I even have to mention that there are 2 engines, one in the front and one in the rear? And the vehicle can run on only four cylinders or 16 at a time. This would be useful when maneuvering over difficult terrains. Again, the cost to mass-produce such a vehicle would be enormous and the Jeep Hurricane was also put on the shelf.
Well, that is what “Concept” is all about. Some of the features from these ideas, if not in its entirety, can be seen in other models which have been made by the above companies. So, some good has come out of these concepts. Still, wouldn’t it be cool to have one of the above mentioned spectacular vehicles to call your own!!
