Is the Rezvani inventor the newest outside-the-box visionary to take Corvette-based concepts to the next level? We’ve had many over the past few generations, like the wild C6-based ValarraVette, the tastefully imagined C8-based DeLorean, and most recently, the Caravaggio Unica Series 1, which is once again based on the revolutionary mid-engined C8.
But Ferris Rezvani has certainly upped the concept ante and combines stellar performance, a remarkable carbon fiber body, and outlandish options like the aptly named “007 Package” to create a re-bodied concept that (as his website claims) will “Unleash Your Inner Beast.” According to Rezvani, the Beast was “created to stir your senses”, and based on the reaction from around the internet, I believe they have succeeded.
Some on social media are saying they like this rear end better than the C8’s.
About The Rezvani Founder
“As a young boy, founder Ferris Rezvani aspired to become a fighter pilot just like his father. In order to develop a thrill similar to flying an F-4 fighter jet, Mr. Rezvani set out to create an extreme sports car that gave drivers the opportunity to experience the same exhilaration and g-forces behind the wheel. This is represented in the Rezvani emblem, with wings representing his roots in aviation and steering wheel and racing stripes representing the brand’s dedication to driving.” [Source]

- The Beast’s “beating heart” is a mid-mounted 1,000 HP twin-turbo 6.2L V8 capable of propelling the Beast from 0-60 MPH in an exhilarating 2.5 seconds and 1/4 mile in 9.6 seconds.
- “RACE-INSPIRED YET COMFORTABLE INTERIOR: A heads-up display provides vital RPM, speed, and other performance information to the driver while luxurious carbon fiber leather seats keep the driver planted…with an ergonomically designed steering wheel inspired by Formula One.”
- “8-SPEED DOUBLE CLUTCH TRANSMISSION: A limited-slip differential Tremec DCT provides millisecond gear shifts…” Will Rezvani regret this one, given some of the issues GM has experienced?
- “CARBON FIBER CONSTRUCTION: A composite material used in aerospace and Formula 1 racing, Carbon Fiber Construction allows BEAST™ to be one of the lightest sports cars in the world and is critical to BEAST’s handling and race car driving dynamics.” This construction drops the vehicle’s weight to 2,960 pounds.
