It is a Stryker, yes, but Bullet Performance is not what I'm looking for.
It's a (something) (something) Stryker so is locked for you to fill in the "something"s!

An ACR Industries Stryker

Yes, it does seem to suffer from schizophrenia a bit but I think that's about it.
Apparently 'ACR' stands for AC Roadster, although ACR don't actually claim that on their own website.
I've also seen it referred to as an ACR Cobra Stryker, which isn't official at all!
The legendary Denis Bedford (of DRB Sports Cars fame) was involved in bringing the car to life.
The ones that seem to exist already are powered by a 5.4 litre Boss Ford V8.
Well done.

I thought about a Bullet at the start, and on their site they mention an all new roadster for 2010, that would not be based on the MX5 anymore. But nothing more, and looking for a Bullet non MX5, I found the Bullet for sale on eBay. So they must have sold the licence to ACR I guess.
But as you put it, that car should be better be called Schizophrenia ;-)
