RE: First Pics: Arash AF-10 supercar

[RSGulp]

I agree it looks a little like an Enzo. But Arash Farboud has a history of making cars which 'look just a little bit' like other cars. Below shows the original Farboud GT compared to the Porsche GT1. It's a shame that this ambition, passion (and huge investment) isn't channeled into creating something truly unique.

I don't think it matters; speaking for myself only, I prefer his version to "the original", and would have been delighted to have an opportunity to buy it.

I think it is fair to say you are 100% correct. Yourself, only, would be the only person on the planet ( other than Arash farboud) willing to buy such a derivative, pointless contribution to the world sports car market.

If the guy wants to build his own interpretations of cars that he likes then good luck to him. But he can't expect a sophisticated car buying public to fall for his over-hyped PR over cars that are curious facsimiles of other people's work.
