Is this a Protege?

It's definitely a Mirage

I totally think it's an Evo VI because of the right-hand drive. If anyone can prove that they did make a mirage in a right-hand drive then I will consider it to be a mirage. The Evo VI and 2000 mirage are very very similiar in body design and body lines but in doing some seraching I haven't found a right-hand drive mirage yet.

Look how the posted car and this evo have the same wipers, driver position, body lines around the windows, doors, hood, fenders, etc. also look at the body line that goes through the door handles and notice they are the same.

The Mirage was called the Lancer over seas. Surely there were RHD Lancers that weren't EVOs.

My only problem with the Lancer/Mirage theory is that this car has minor wheel flares front and rear, which is why I was thinking it was a 3rd gen Pro.

Edit: looking again, those are pretty big flares, actually, and were likely added to whatever this car started life as.
 
That is the bottom of the three diamonds, isn't it?

I can't believe we all missed that!
