Looks like an old Tmaxx aluminum pan with a single brushless motor conversion !
the chassis being purple calls out MIP kit to me. Im not 100 % sure though

Kinda looks like an Exceed Infinitive to me:

Maybe cross reference some of the parts here to see if the molds match up:
1/10 Infinitive Monster Truck & Hammer NP Spare Parts (51C08)

The tell tale sign for me is the radio tray looks remarkably similar:

pretty sure the original owner knows exactly what it is, but is too embarrassed to admit what they paid and probably wants to get more for it than what it's worth.

After putting both cars side by side, I'm fairly convinced it's an Infinitive:

Ive seen the same thing too, don't know why people get so worked up.
