Its made by Avanti Motors.. its based off a f body(firebird or trans am)with a full custom fiberglass exterior which has styling cues of the older avantis. theres also a coupe model, 2 SUV models, which look like H2's i wonder why, a shelby cobra look alike model, and a porsche-looking model.

The Avanti has always had that front. I believe they still make them, too. There's the traditional one that's been around forever, and it was a car that was kinda ahead of its time when it first came out....I've only see a few of these f-body ones though. They must have been a special production Avanti.
