If I feel need for a bit more speed I take my fxx out for a spin.


These are expensive so I don't drive them daily. My daily
driver is a lowly Diablo.

Actually, In this context of cars prototype means something else.
When car companies design new cars they first build one or two
as a concept verification. The see if this turns out as expected
and show it around. Then if they decide to go into mass production
they manufacture lots of those cars. The first cars they built
is the prototype.

So in this context, the cars I posted above are not 'prototypes'
but 'scale models' of the original cars. A prototype Lamborghini murcielago
probably will go for millons of dollars ;-)

exactly .. this is actually what a prototype is ... not only for cars but for everything ... thats why i provided the link and kept it simple in my words ... prototyping is also a common software development process model ... where you keep building upon the basic prototype

Nope, they don't make a prototype. They make a 'scale model'
