No one yet, which is why I don't want to inadvertently start something and end up dragging down the thread over something as silly as a sketch of a car that doesn't have any real details outside of an engine.

Maybe future models of this thing will be to the Vette what the S7 is to the Mustang! That would be cool!

I'm seeing Enzo, S7, Carrera GT, Koenigsegg , Lotus Exige, Toyota Alessandro Volta + Honda NSX in the front end, and some K1 Attack in the interior. Altogether it looks halfway decent though, and not like a mishmash of overly fussy design details. The car looks like a car, not a kit car is I guess what I'm trying to say. With a breathed-on Z06 powertrain, it ought to go like stink too. I'll be interested to see if it actually makes production.

where did you get this info?

Must be a joke, all car-knowers can see what this Arash is made from, other supercars!

Although, some car makers should look more at the positioning of the gearlever ala Carrera GT...

i think this Arash company was started by Arash Farboud (remember the Farboud GTS?) :bah:

I think we may have been a bit preemptive with the comments about the front end. Apparently it's not flush but has an integrated wing, a la Yamaha OX99-11. I think it's going to be a pretty unique-looking vehicle, and it is indeed the brainchild of Arash Farboud.

I´m not diggin the roof scoop...way to tall. Indeed it will be a unique looking car, but it still looks like a mix of bunch of supercars in the first pics. In the last pic posted it strays away from the other cars mentioned and has a look of it´s own...

Oh please. For $170,000 200mph and sub 4sec 0-60 time should be standard. It must be something incredibly astonishing or forget it. Remember Laraki? New prototype every year?

Glad to see the C6 Z06 engine already being put to good use.. but they should go back to the drawing boards to restyle the damn thing..

Although, that engine in the middle of any car, would make me a very very happy driver.
