Maybe it was a Qvale Mangusta. I've seen a couple and it always throws me for a loop because they're so strange looking.

ding ding ding! we have a winner it seems. I thought it was a bit more rounded in the back, but it's hard to miss those vents. The front is pretty much as I remember, so I'm pretty much sure that's what it is! thanks!

Didnt mean to make it sound like some awesome car... it looked nice, was clean and looked interesting.. that paired with my inability to identify it drove me to figure out what the hell it was... I can usually at least identify the logo, so this one was a bit of a surprise! Thanks for all the ideas guys.

A hearty pat on the back, the warm thrill of victory and the short term feeling of superiority.
