Well, you seem to have found what I thought was a fairly obscure Italian one-off with ease...

Looks most like an average, production-ready concept car until you open the doors...

Pictures exist of the Michelotti Mizar with some slight differences from the images already posted here.

A rear view showing flat tail lights which do not wrap around the corners.  As shown in the above Open Hatch image, the tail lights may not have been functional.

Another slight, strange difference is, the rose-colored show car has solid front door glass.  The silver car has a small black diagonal line, indicating what may be a small parallelogram window:

I suspect someone has gone to the trouble of making the car road-legal by fitting working tail lights (they look like amended versions of Alfetta 1.6 lights to me, or perhaps ones made for a market other than Europe) and opening door windows...
