* Monica, a French luxury automobile brand, created 22 '''prototypes''' and only 8 '''production cars''' before work was stopped indefinitely. Read more [[wikipedia:Monica chr(28)carchr(29car)|here]]. It was a sign of [[What Could Have Been]]. [http://image3.examiner.com/images/blog/wysiwyg/image/z_Monica.jpg Here's a photo].
* General Motors planned to turn Saturn into Opel of America, with more vehicles added to the product line, when the 2007-2009 global economic crisis struck. The name then disappeared as 2009 ended and 2010 started.<br /><br />The Saturn division itself was first announced and a prototype shown in 1983. It was 1991 by the time you could actually buy one, and the original sedan's wraparound rear window had been stolen ''internally'' by Oldsmobile, leading observers to see the Saturn as the "copy".
* Due in large part (but not entirely) to [[World War Two]], the VW Beetle design was finalized for production in 1938 but the first cars delivered to retail customers weren't until 1947.
