It looks to be some kind of De Tomaso (Italian). I've seen this car online before, but I can't seem to remember the name...

I would have to agree with Kuztom Freak,

That looks like a late 89/90's 240SX with a wide body kit.

Note* the door handles and mirrors are the same, Also the 4 bolt wheels, and gas door location. and you can see, The sail panels are longer then a 240, but it seems to be part of a rear hatch conversion as part of the kit, which would account for the lower tail lights.

neat looking car!

Pop the hood, see what's it got for a motor, that should tell you everything.
And if the motor is gone, then look through the interior, you're bound to find something in there, a tag or a logo or even a door plate with some kind of identification on it, paint number, trim number.. something!

bring a digital camera and get a shot of the interior, I've had 4 240's.. I can almost describe them in my sleep. lol

Good luck...
