Amazing the number of models one ultra tiny car company can pull off of one body and chassis. Yes, sir, all of these cars are based on one model, the Beast. Time for a few pictures.......

Enrolled in the brutalist school of automotive design, this new mid-engined supercar stands out and certainly holds its own looks wise against some of those other boutique sportscar manufacturers.

A few other details. Rezvani Automotive Designs is based in that hotbed of automotive design, Irvine, California. Has been around since way back in 2015. Employs six people (according to the web). If you were wondering whether this is a volume manufacturer, there is your answer. Their mission is to create and sell a fast and unique supercar for cheap money. Fast, since even the "base" Beast has a 400 HP Cosworth engine and the power goes up from there thru the various Beast models.

Unique?

A picture is worth.......well, you know that old adage. No mundane scissor type door for this company. Don't like them? As you can imagine with only six workers each car is handmade to the buyer specs.

Did I mention they also do a cabrio? Glad you asked........

Not all drop tops are an improvement on a car's looks (Porsche 911, I'm talking to you), but this one is a stunner.

Fast. Unique. But affordable? This is the third part of Rezvani's raison d'etre. The Beast series starts at a mere $179,000 US and tops out at $225,500, of course options and client requests are extra. For anyone considering a hand built supercar, this is fantastically cheap coin. Where would our world be without dreamers and Rezvani appears to be on that list.

But they are not dummies, as everyone knows that these days, every single car manufacturer has to have some sort of suv in their portfolio. Rezvani is no exception. For those urban warriors among you, for those of you who consider going to the mall to be an off road adventure, here is Rezvani's answer, the appropriately named Tank.......

Remember my brutalist design school comment? Well, add ugly to it. What soccer mom wouldn't want to drop her budding athletes off in this thing. Watch the other moms and kids run away in fear. No messing with this dame, as she makes her way to the nearest Louis Vuitton outlet. Price? Of course, this is also very affordable (as least for those of you with fat wallets), starting at a comfortable $155,000 US.

Look for big things from this company. Things like doubling the workforce to meet demand. Things like hiring a good designer to revamp the Tank. Things like tripling their prices, so they can stay in business.

As I said, where would we be without dreamers. Rezvani Automotive Designs. Remember the name.

Until next time......
