Very impressive effort. Looks like they have all their ducks in a row.
Very nice car. Very well thought out design.
I was impressed that he was willing to throw out pretty much the entire
original design (DC) and start the new design (AC) from a blank sheet of
paper.
The sign of an excellent engineer and manager. Often we become far too
emotionally attached to a particular design concept and that becomes a
black hole.

I suggest you study Mate Rimac's development of a $10^6 sports car:
http://www.rimac-automobili.com/
He started out building series dc powered bmw's for racing (you can find his
build thread on diyelectriccar, circa 2009), then built up his group to
build a 4 AC motor supercar, designing his own motors and drive train. His
only possible market was similar to yours, the super rich. Iirc he sold a
few cars to oil princes and such, but mostly survived by selling his
technology and consulting with car companies. No idea how he is doing now.
You could probably learn a lot from him since he has been down the path you
have selected. I'd call him up if I were you. He has actually lived it,
unlike anyone on this list including me.
