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.

We produced 1 x prototype and it drives very well, but we were unable to raise the finance for production.

We still have the car.

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.
