Actually, looking at the logo on the wheel I believe it to be rather a Toyota MR-2 or MR-S (I knew the side air intakes reminded me of something...)

You've identified the base (MR2) but not the car..
I'll lock it for you for 18 hours to see if you can find the car's name.

It appears to be a one-off but I can't find a name for that car (unless we call it the "green thingy"?)  :)

It does have a model name which I'm afraid is needed for the point!

That's the one, yes.
It seems to use an adapted 'Top Gun' body, although I haven't been able to find out much about 'Top Gun'..
I think it's also billed as an NSX lookalike..

Well done.
