Somewhere discussed already.

We all know that he'll never deliver one. He's been promising for decades and has yet to deliver.

Is the super charged model still the GM LS "378 Super Blower"?

I don't know who the 'new owner' of AC Motor Cars (if that is their name) is, but I would not bet on production vehicles ever seeing the light of day!

Even if they did, at ~1,400 Kg, that translates into a 3,100 lb car, substantially heavier than any original or replica today.

In the end, this will most likely be yet another BS story that will never come to pass. That said, he does do a pretty good job of marketing the damn thing. However, he is more than just a little challenged with the production side of the equation ...

There is no "new" owner, it still Lubinsky with someone new fronting for him again. AC and all of its' trademarks are held by his Delaware corporation "Acedes". I have a large file going back to 2009 with the corporate games played including the reverse merger with "Digital Mafia Media" to get a stock listing; his "investors and partners" running a brokerage firm in New York being arrested, his leasing company in the UK being labeled "not a going firm" by the accountants and a bunch of other fun. 25 years of press releases and promises (see the "internet wayback machine" for hours of entertainment!).

Sadly, the corpse of AC Cars has never been given a proper burial but rather dragged out, propped up for viewing and used to fleece those who do not do proper due diligence.

The car looks nice but I lost interest as soon as I saw Electric.
