In 2006, riding along the coastal roads on the Côte d’Azur, Emile Pop was struck by a spark of inspiration. He realizes that while many people can have fun on speedboats and yachts, only 2 can fit in supercars.
It was then and there, Emile decides the time is right for a new breed of ‘social’ supercars, bearing the following hallmarks:
Emile Pop meets Justin de Boer during his industrial product design studies and together they create the first proof of concept of the 4 door convertible supercar.
They immediately share an entrepreneurial enthusiasm, which enables the duo to secure funding and partners to start their voyage.
In the first 6 months, a clay model is carved out to visualize the exterior. At that time, the company is just a two man show and realizing the dream still seems impossible.

After 8 months of hard work 18 hours a day 6 days a week, the first prototype is finished. On the 1st of April in 2009 Prime Minister Balkenende unveils the car during the AutoRai.
The first prototype is subjected to the first performance & endurance tests on the drift parcours at Weeze Airport Germany & the famous racing tracks in Zandvoort & Assen. Racing driver Yelmer Buurman helps us with improving the handling characteristics.
