-> I stumbled an article on Autoblog about the Gordon McCall's automotive reception. After browsing many distinct cars, I see this:

^ I can't figure it out what car is this? It may be one of those kooky-but-imensely fast kit cars, but I would like to know! Thanks! :)

Possibly a kit car?
It looks very much like a Dino 206sp replica.
From what I can see when zoomed in, the plaque says "COCK Type..." So I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong there.

i believe it is the mythical honda civic. not many have seen it and have lived to tell the tale. truly a lengendary vehicle. amazing that these pictures were captured.

Nah, it's an early Escalade. They eventually decided to take the design in a different direction. ;)

The car next to it is a De Tomaso, so maybe this is a one off De Tomaso concept?

Surely so.

At first i thought maybe it was a Spyker based kit car but after a lot of head scratching and trawling around it turns out its a one off Corsa Spyder by RSDesign.

Very nice research to find out what it actually was, my first impression was that it looked like a modernized Chevron

^ Another question, is there a website or any official link to the manufacturer of the Corsa Spyder? Thanks!

Unfortunately even at this time i've still not been able to find a site related to the car. However i think the owner may be linked to Kennerley-Spratling Inc , if i'm reading the name correctly , and since they are linked to automotive design and engineering it makes a lot of sense.
