"Arash Motor Company was established in March 2006 and has been working on the AF10 ever since.

The styling drawings were made in March 2005 by Arash Farboud Designs and have since been converted into computer models and aerodynamic cfd mesh models.

The company is located in Sawston on the outskirts of Cambridge. Most testing will be conducted at Millbrooke proving grounds 20 miles away from the company. The facility in Sawston Cambridge is equipped with a styling studio, painting booth, carbon lamination room, parts dispatch area, carbon curing autoclave oven and polished epoxy floored car assembly stations. A board room and administration offices are also located at the site.

Arash Motor Company have designed a traditionally shaped badge with an eagle emblem. The background colour is solid black and the foreground eagle is in gold. The Arash Motor Company' emblem is in flame orange."

Cool. Thanks for the link. Interesting story.

The snub by Porsche to motivate him to build his own supercar reminds me of Ferruccio Lamborghini snubbed by Enzo Ferrari.

As hungry enthusiasts, we need more snubbing.
