Fellow Autopuzzlers, for a point please tell me the name this car, who built it and what it's based on.

Don't be naughty! Stay away from Google Search by Image, kids.

No.
Yeah, proportions were telling me "US," but 4-lug wheels and Euro door handles were saying "No." Do you know if the donor chassis has been lengthened?
