We reported earlier this year the product of snubbed would-be Enzo buyer Arash Farboud, the Arash AF10, was getting closer to production. Now we have details and what looks like photos of a working prototype. Powered by GM's 505 HP 7.0-liter LS7 found in the Z06, the "Enzo-killer" should hit a 3.4 second 0-to-60 time (within a tenth of the Enzo) with a top speed of 204 MPH. All of this comes at a price of just $300,000 (w/VAT) for one of the 25 cars annually produced, a few of which, we're told, are destined for the US. The company also announced plans for an FXX-fighting AF10-S version with a planned 850 HP, proving that hell hath no fury like a wealthy car-collector scorned. Details below the jump. More »

Back in 2006, Arash Farboud was snubbed by Ferrari when he requested a shiny new Enzo. Apparently they didn't feel the inherited fortune made in pharmaceuticals was enough to make him Ferrari material.

He pulled together the Farbio GTS as a proof of concept, and for the British Motor Show unveiled a concept car called the Arash AF10, a carbon fiber, Corvette-powered Enzo killer. Since then, things have been quiet, but according to Car, that doesn't mean nothing's been happening. More »
