Remember the Steel Grey (or very similiar) Prototype CSLs back in 2002? Guess they've all been squashed now :hahaha:

Yeah but I didn't mean the concept, I meant the protos that were shown off to journalists at a track, with their reports appearing in several magazines. These were the darker (possibly Steel) grey cars :thumbs:
