Want Your Own Custom Supercar? This Company Will Build It

Supercars are expensive, and more often than not, you're limited to one powertrain option and one body style, with very little wiggle room for full-on customization. That is, unless you're willing to throw an obscene amount of money at a company like
Ferrari
or Lamborghini. But a British engineering firm wants to make that process a bit easier—and, hopefully, a bit cheaper, too.
A company called Dash Bespoke—a spinoff of Dash, an engineering firm that's been working in racing since 2006—will build you a custom supercar virtually from the ground up. Using its TR01 carbon fiber monocoque chassis, which debuted in 2023, buyers will be able to pick and choose from a variety of powertrains, custom body styles, interiors, and more.

The TR01 platform, Dash notes, is lightweight, stiff, and completely Euro NCAP compliant—which means it is road legal in the UK. It works with batteries and V-8s alike, and customers can spec it to become a road-going supercar, hypercar, or a custom race car.
The first customer-built supercar based on Dash's TR01 platform will debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed later this summer. The so-called "SlipStream" will have a mid-engined V-8 built by Hartley in New Zealand (the same company responsible for the
Nilu27
's engine), with bespoke carbon fibre subframes, a light alloy suspension, and hydraulic dampers from Nitron.
"Bringing a bespoke or low-volume performance vehicle to life is a monumental undertaking," says Dash CEO Tim Robathan.

"Whether it's an OEM motorsport project or a niche hypercar, the engineering, manufacturing, and assembly challenges and associated risks are high. For many brands and visionaries, these obstacles can halt progress and project viability. That is why we have established Dash Bespoke."
Dash doesn't say how much your dream custom supercar will cost you. We can't imagine it's cheap. But given the existing platform and Dash's engineering expertise, it's still likely a far more affordable option than going to Ferrari. And far more customizable, too.
