Looks like a cheap Diablo replica
 
They were not cheap. $600k fully equipped. Only 8 built before hard times shut them down in the early 1990s. I wonder if the collector value is anywhere near the original selling price.

Dunno what the blue soft roader is, but I bet it's from India or Malaysia

You're right about that. Any guesses?

There must be a dozen questionable car companies in India now. No idea.

Well, I'll give you a hint.
 
I just returned from India, and there are only 3 Indian car manufacturers. India has Ford, Chevrolet, Hyundai, Honda, Toyota, Fiat, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Opel, Porsche, Bentley but the blue SUV is from none of these companies.
 
It's Indian made, and relatively new to the market.

Hmmm...not a Hindustan Ambassador or a Tata...the only ones I can think of right now.

I didn't mean to slam the car but at a first glance the front end looks like it came off a Diablo. I'm sure this was an awesome car especially with a V16.
 
I'm sure if the company resurrects itself and makes another high end sports car that is successful, then the original will be worth a ton of money.

No it's not from either one of those companies. The company starts with M. If you're really stuck, just right click for a clue.
 
The Hindustan Ambassador is a unique car. A car whose original engineering goes back to 1955 still being produced 50 years later. When I went in it, nothing about the car would indicate it belonging to the 21st century.

I had to cheat. I've heard of it, anyway
 
I kind of like the Hindustan Ambassador. It's a real "retro" car.
