Saw this car for sale in Boston for $6000. Doesn't resembles like an Amby too much?..I haven't ever seen this car in India...

I have seen one such in hyderabad on saturday, being towed by a jeep after a paint job. May be getting ready for the 26th jan rally. For a moment thought it was an amby from the rear but after overtaking it found its a merc.
Infact my dad commented it is copied from an amby!
