Cardi
Cardi is a Russian design firm that has made several one-off sports cars, and SUV / sport car crossovers. Outstanding compared to other Russian cars, most of the cars aren't that bad looking.
This Cardi concept though has a few fugly details. Mainly the rims, the odd two-tone colour choice and the ugly chrome grille. However, I mainly wanted to display this for one reason.
Some specialty cars use other car's exterior and interior parts to save the money on developing their own. Most of the time they're borrowed from more expensive cars / brands. I've seen Diablo taillights, Passat tails, Mercedes and BMW pieces.
Cardi did similar, and borrowed taillights from the highly exotic 1986-1995 Ford Taurus wagon.
