That's the Chrysler Imperial limo from Cannonball Run II, I guess the car would be ca. 1981-82

I think it's an improvement over the "regular" '82 Imperial.

Yep, Seville Milan conversion job. It was a thoroughly pathetic attempt to compete with the MB SLs of the period, though not quite so awful from the back.
GM would produce its own similarly pathetic SL competitor a decade later.

Looks like a Chinese ripoff of a 2002 Honda Civic to me.

I'd take an Allante over that awkward thing any day of the week

I'd take a 1993 Allante with the Northstar in it. I think the Allante would've done a lot better if it had a decent engine in it all along. The first Allantes had to make do with the thoroughly mediocre 4.5 litre V-8. Still, the Allante was a very attractive car.

As a matter of fact it is Chinese. It's called the Coda, it's all electric and expected to sell for about $45K in California starting late 2010.
Good luck with that one. 
Coda Automotive.

A 45K knock off of an early 00s Civic (that rear end is just as bad) built by a rogue state. Should be an easy sell, and I am sure it is very crashworthy...
