The Arash AF10 Supercar

British car maker Arash Farboud sold off his car company named Farboud and the new owners changed the name to Farbio. It seems that Arash was done making cars however, as he's started a new car company under his first name.The first creation for his new company is the Arash AF10.

The car has a carbon-fiber body along with a carbon fiber chassis, giving it a curb weight of about 2,600 lbs. The engine is a 7-liter pushrod V8, taken from a Corvette Z06, and tuned to pump out 530hp. 

The car is set to cost around 170,000 pounds if you live in the U.K., which means by the current exchange rate, it'll cost almost $291,000USD. Delivery of the first cars will be sometime next year.

You can check out the article about the car over at the Autoblog HERE, and see more pictures of it HERE.
