Mebby not, but it was at the State Fair auto show this year.
:) I got to sit in it. Sadly, I did not bring my camera
this year. :(
The neat thing was if you looked real close at the tires you
could tell someone was burning rubber recently. Telltail rubber
lips on the lugs. That and the suspension, body work interior
etc are all real. Unlike some concepts that use cheap plastic.
The underside had beauty marks so someone had driven it over
a fairly decent obstacle (and got close to stuck)
They said it was "production capable" Now all it takes is a few
hundred thousand customers to make it a reality.

That's from doing it's "spinning" thing. Really scuffs up the tires.

It's several years old, I imagine it's been driven quite a bit...

First it's gotta get past the legal dept, which I doubt it will in its
concept configuration.
