[DML] Can we ALL come to a correct definition of these DeLorean terms?

[<delornut@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As Dave says this will probably be tossed around forever but I can tell you what the various cars would have been called  when I worked for Ford. Proto1 and the destroyed Proto2 would be concept cars. The sliding window car or cars with interior trim differences would be prototypes and the early pre-production vin numbers would be pilot cars. The Fiat would be just what Dave called it, a test mule.
