One-off (hopefully as that is a really ugly car - what idiot came up with those wings behind the front wheels!)

Lexus Minority Report Movie Car...but it's not the car which was used in the movie but replica ( with Chevrolet V6 engine ) which somebody build and try to sell at 88 000$ ( in the end, car was sold for less than 50 k ). However, I couldn't find the exact name of this car, only it was a "Lexus Minority Report Movie Car" replica...

It does have a name. On the manufacturers site there is nothing mentioned about the Minority Report...

Those are rear ones as far as I understand...

Yes, the wings are in front of the rear wheels.....

This may look like the Lexus 2054 concept car as seen in the Spielberg film Minority Report, but it is a kit car made by The Car Factory of Micco, Florida, and called the "Dimentia" Super Car. Or it may be "Dimensia", as it's spelled both ways on their website. A body kit can be had for $6500, or it can be bought as a turn-key car.

Of the puzzle car they say:

The car pictured is built on a tube frame chasis with an all electric drive train, suicide doors, power windows, 22 inch wheels, genuine safety glass windshield, and side and rear glass.

And also

We are currently outfitting a 2006 Chevy Aveo platform with this new body.
