    Who can Identify this car?

    -> I stumbled an article on Autoblog about the Gordon McCall's automotive reception. After browsing many distinct cars, I see this:

    ^ I can't figure it out what car is this? It may be one of those kooky-but-imensely fast kit cars, but I would like to know! Thanks!

    It looks very much like a Dino 206sp replica.


    From what I can see when zoomed in, the plaque says "COCK Type..." So I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong there.

    Buying a car and not driving it is like buying a meal and not eating it.

    i believe it is the mythical honda civic. not many have seen it and have lived to tell the tale. truly a lengendary vehicle. amazing that these pictures were captured.
    it was actually me who killed vasilli zaitsev, heinz thorwald, carlos hatchcock, and simo hayha

    Nah, it's an early Escalade. They eventually decided to take the design in a different direction.

    The car next to it is a De Tomaso, so maybe this is a one off De Tomaso concept?

    At first i thought maybe it was a Spyker based kit car but after a lot of head scratching and trawling around it turns out its a one off Corsa Spyder by RSDesign.

    Very nice research to find out what it actually was, my first impression was that it looked like a modernized Chevron
