Siegen, Germany -- The Volkswagen CrossBlue concept feels very much like a real car. Get inside. The cabin has wood graining, leather, and stitching. The air-conditioning and turn signals work. It even has Wi-Fi access. Alas, the Volkswagen CrossBlue concept is just a show car.

Westlake Village, California -- With headlamps placed high above the front bumper, the 2014 Ram ProMaster is rather frog-faced. But even if a pretty maiden planted a wet one on the Ram badge, it wouldn't turn this curb hopper into a handsome deliveryman.
