"what do we have here?"

'It's a 98 Honda Civic."

"A 98 Honda Civic, heh?"

"Yes."

"What do we have here?"

"A custom 98 Honda Civic with a 6 cylinder."


Can we use "What do we have here?" If the person who says it knows "what it is", but doesn't know "what it is exactly"? How would you reword this?

Yes. And you can say it even if you know what exactly it is. In that case, it just means you want to talk about it.
