Solved - NEH 1701: Vygor Opera

For a nice easy Rookie point, identify this car for 1 point:

Google Search by Image continues to raise its ugly head on AutoPuzzles.
For the sake of our newer members who may not be aware of past discussions on it, Google Search by Image as a means of solving puzzles is banned on this website.

AutoPuzzles is primarily a game of automotive knowledge, not of who can copy and paste the quickest.

We ask all members to remember and respect this, and retain the right to ask puzzle-solvers how they came to their answer.

Have fun!

Clearly not as easy a Rookie point as I thought!
In that case - a nice easy Expert point?

Years later, I found information.

The Vygor is based on the mechanics of a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo.  Pricing was expected to start around $192,000 in U.S. dollars.

Here is the front of the white car, and the slightly different front of the red car (if they are not the same prototype.)

Good news!  Vygor appears to still be in business.  They've improved the styling of the "Vygor Opera RUV":

I'm not sure "improved" is the right word to use here...  :yuck:
