Isn't this a quite recent repost?
I remember a white thing and few comments about this 'beauty'!

Not a Suzuki either.

This is the first mock-up of the Secma Fun Extr'm 500, shown with that body at the 2002 Paris Motorshow.
I'm not sure this picture was taken on the Secma stand, but you can see the back of Daniel Renard, Secma's boss, on the left.  ;)

Secma tried its own design at first with this, and then asked to François Quirin of Quirin Design in Meudon (already made the Fun Tech look) to do something, well, better !  ;D

That's a very detailed answer - and kudos for recognising someone's back!
SECMA is correct - but the show car had its own unique name - puzzle locked for you till your next reply.

You're right : it was shown at the 2000 Paris Motorshow (not 2002), under the name "Fun Twin".

The production car, Fun Extr'm 500 started in production in early 2002.
