Not even close. I've worked for Ford now going on 4 years & have been in styling studios where they are getting displays ready for the Detroit auto show & you would be surprised what is actually under the body & holding the seats & dash up in some of the concept cars. Also if you think there aren't cars that the factories have way over a million dollars invested that are not running your mistaken.
Just curious, who is writing the checks for Ford's concept cars? Is it Ford or is it a customer?

If I had one I'd be proud of it also.
You are missing the point. The question was of the status of a previous cat thats all. An honest question about an unbelievable boat. No need to get in a pissing match about it.
Have a nice weekend.

Yeah I know that's normal for me. BTW I was never in a pissing match I was trying to help people who want to throw stones at what OL has done with GD in Miami. That this a standard operating procedure at all the auto shows for the car makers. I drove a test mule Ford GT & it looked nothing like the show car they had a the Detriot Auto show back in 02 BTW the show had to pushed everywhere it went.

I asked an honest and simple question. When I throw a stone you'll know it.
The issue was selling a boat that doesn't run - period!
It is not an attack on all of OL operations. They build a fabulous boat, one of if not the best V hull out there. But why risk reputation and potential embarassment by doing what they did with GD? I don't see the benefit.
Now you have unveiled an unreal boat, have issues and everyone is not suppose to ask where it is or how its running?
Why even put yourself in this position? I didnt see this new cat finished, painted and on display for the world until it was properly tested and proven, which is how it should be done before accepting a customers $$.
So I ask again, where is and how is GD running?
