most car manafacturers keep them. i remember seeing a toyota warehouse/museum once that had all old concepts and like, one pristine version of every model they've made. it's a part of the auto manafacturers history.

The non-concept cars end up at the nearest dealership. When I was looking to purchase, a dealer in Michigan had a Z from the detroit show.... not that thousands of gruby hands all over the car meant it were gonna discount it in any way.

Ford auctions the concept cars for charities.

Ford Auctions History

Most concept cars are not road worthy. So I highly doubt that you would see it on the dealer's lot except for show.
