MG EXE181 concept looks to brand's need for speed today and in the past

MG turns 100 years old, and what a long, strange trip it's been for the brand that started as a promotional project for Morris Garages in Oxford, England. Now a property of Chinese state-owned automaker SAIC, the latest incarnation of MG has been putting cars on dealer lots since 2007 and doing a fine job of it; the brand sold nearly 850,000 cars last year, 88% of them exported to international markets. For its Eastern home show, MG took a page from its past in showing the EXE181 concept.

The EXE181's tailfin that can rise to act as an air brake and the dual parachutes, however, lead us to believe no DMV in the world will send a set of plates for this car.
