It does but it's not one.
In fact it pre-dates the Prodrive...

It's the same car, yes, although I'm looking for another name for it.
See if you can match the name I have plus answer the other part of the question for the point.
Locked for you.

Well it is based on the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and has a motor from it.  I will have to keep looking for another name.  I only knew it under that name.

It is indeed based on the Evo.
Keep digging for that name; I know it's right because it's emblazoned across the rear plate..
I believe it's what this car morphed into.

Have only seen it called X-1 concept
I think the company changed to Xtreme Automobiles though.

Yes, in fact it is the Xtreme X-1, which is what it was later named.   It's Mitsubishi-based and has actually been around since 2003, although whether more than 1 was ever made I don't know.

Thanks!
Suppose you could say it became the Prodrive, although different but quite similar base..

I searched a few web sites, and couldn't find this answer.  Where is the engine?  Front?  Mid?

It's front-engined, same as the car on which it's based.
