Some decent clues here I think...

Toyota Vitz/Yaris Liftback

[Picolini]

You got it! Maybe it was too easy

Yaris 3dr, over here.

For some reason I want to say Saab, though those wheels look like they have Nissan badges on them. Is it a new Altima?

[stingray.]

It's definitely not a Saab or a Nissan.

[Black-hawk]

Looks like a mutated VW. Possible a Chinese rip off? Maybe a Lexus.

Not a VW. Not a Chinese knock-off.

 

The bloated appearance, no sense of styling in the headlights... It even has a Bangle Butt. Mind you, the Bangle Butt isn't available only on BMW's cars.

That hood makes me want to say Lexus, maybe even Hyundai...

[stingray.]

hint: This might be annoying for you guys, but it's a Toyota.

 

 

And it's for the Japanese market only.

Mark X

Yes it is.

 

Your turn.

[Miky_Z]

Here we go again.

[lurchseesu420]

Either a Zagato or Pinninfarina body? Maybe some kind of Alfa or Fiat. Most likely Italian. At first glance I thought it was a Ferrari 456. Maybe a Maserati?

[Miky_Z]

Nope none of the above.

Nothing to do with Italy or the Fiat group.

Pretty sure Zagato & Pinninfarina have no input on its design.

[stingray.]

Looks like an MR2 dressed to look like a Ferrari.

[Miky_Z]

Not MR2.

Nore is it an aftermarket replica kit.

Its 1 of 2 prototypes '95-96(this the '96 version)

Based on GM components.

Company is a low volume manufacturer.

[bagga rabbit]

Is it a Saturn?

EDIT..

 

Company is a low volume manufacturer.

I'm probably wrong..right?

[GTA3Freak-2001]

Is that swirly thing in the middle of the grille where you've blurred out the badge?

[Miky_Z]

^yes,its the blurred out badge.

No its not a Saturn.

Uses the GM V-platform.

 

[stingray.]

Is it a Rinspeed?

[Miky_Z]

Nope,but your not far off.

Its German

[CAD167]

Hello! It's a BMW 850i or a Porsche 924, isn't it?

[bagga rabbit]

 

Uses the GM V-platform.

 

Is it an Opel?

[Miky_Z]

Its based on the Omega/Carlton/Commodore.

BTW its a.......4Dr

[CAD167]

OK, it's a Bitter. An SC or a CD.

 

Edit: no, it isn't.

 

BTW, the only GM carmaker from Germany is Opel.

 

Edit2: given up, don't know what this can be

Argh! Only thing I can think of is Opel GT, but that only has 2 doors.

 

List of cars with pop-out headlamps, I have a feeling this list isn't very exhaustive.

[CAD167]

So, tell us again, to be sure: ths isn't a Ferrari or anything Italian, it's made in Germany, uses the V-platform of the GM.

Models using this platforum:

1988–1991 Buick Reatta

1987–1993 Cadillac Allanté

1967–1982 Opel Commodore

1967–1982 Chevrolet Commodore

1978–1986 Opel Monza

1978–1994 Opel Senator/Vauxhall Royale/Vauxhall Senator/Chevrolet Senator

1978–2006 Holden Commodore

1979–1982 Vauxhall Viceroy

1986–2003 Opel Omega

1987–1994 Vauxhall Carlton

1990–1992 Lotus Carlton

1990–2006 Holden Statesman/Caprice

1992–1998 Chevrolet Omega

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1997–2001 Cadillac Catera (built in Germany for the US)!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2000–2007 Chevrolet Caprice

2000–2007 Chevrolet Lumina/Chevrolet Omega

2001–2006 Holden Monaro

2004–2006 Pontiac GTO

2005–2006 Buick Royaum

 

The only German brand of GM is Opel.

So the new list is only Opel Omega/Senator/Monza/Commodore.

There's also a Caddy Catera, which isn't old enough (and thast car looks something like built in the late '80s), and totally different.

 

 

MAN, I REALLY DON'T KNOW....

Edited July 19, 2008 by CAD167

[epoxi]

I'm sure it won't be the Catera.

 

Aside from looking completely different to the picture, and basically being a slightly modified Opel/Vauxhall Omega...Cadillac is not German.

 

I'm dying to know: this mysterious blue car looks quite interesting.

This is why I said a Catera. There is no other car in relationship whit Germany (sorry for my bad English), except for the Opels.

 

But there was a sentence: "low volume manufacturer". I don't know. This could be AC Schnitzer, Rinspeed, Brabus, AMG, Alpina, but most of them are only tuning specialists, and none of them has anything like this.
