This is an early 80's car, seems pretty well inline with it's North American contemporaries, styling-wise. Like, check out the 1G Ford Tempo or LTD. Also the 1G K-cars. Everyone was doing the "mock Mercedes" look then.
This one's been painted, and they didn't reproduce the black-out effect on the grill and bumper which takes it down a bit IMO. Do an image search on an "Anadol A8" and you'll see how it was intended to look.
The car in the image is an Anadol A8-16, a Turkish-made sedan.
The Anadol A8-16 was the last new car model released by the Turkish brand Anadol, produced between 1981 and 1984.
The design of the A8-16 was inspired by SAAB and Volvo models from that era, featuring a wedge-shaped front end and large headlamps.
It utilized parts from other Anadol models, such as the windows from the SV-1600 and the rear lights from the Böcek.
Anadol was Turkey's first domestic mass-production passenger vehicle manufacturer, producing cars from 1966 to 1991

Copying a Dodge Mirada front end is diabolical work.

I see 80s Dodge "Charger" in that front end.

No more calls, we have a winner - or is it a loser?
Soggy-Contract8429@reddit
I love how everyone agrees the car is ugly, but we’re also trying to find out what Chrysler product it most resembles.

100%. My first thought.
berkakar@reddit
they copied Coşkun Sabah, he's born in 1952
officialsanic@reddit
I know it's an Anadol from next door east but it looks like a Ford Tempo.
