It's one of the ItalDesign Ford Maya series of proposed coupes, in fact this one is Maya II EM from 1985.

It's a beautiful car.
When you look at some of the designs that have been wasted - and some of the rubbish that's been used it makes you weep!

That's true, but I much prefer the Maya II (without EM):
Alas both cars have those 80s fashioned rims.
(BTW: it has been posted in one of PJ's group puzzles before)

I wonder what EM stood for?
Engine in the Middle?!

The red car I've posted was called Maya II ES which was more or less a face-lifted Maya (I)
The Maya II EM was built as a spare car and was equipped with a mid-mounted longitudinal 3 liter Ford engine with 300 PS.

Might as well complete the trio by posting pics of the original Maya then; definitely a contender for the Biggest Waste of All Time prize, IMHO:
