• Oilstainlab is producing a limited run of 25 units based on the extreme Half-11 prototype.
  • The production model will deliver 650 hp, with an optional 850 hp electric version available.
  • Buyers paying $2.3M get both ICE and electric powertrains, interchangeable via subframe swaps.

Oilstainlab has gained a certain notoriety for its audacious Half-11 Prototype. This Porsche-esque roadster pushes the limits of what a road-legal car can be, teetering on the edge of extremity. Now, the company is taking the radical concept behind that prototype and turning it into an ultra-exclusive production car, limited to just 25 units.

First, let’s talk about production spec targets. Oilstainlab wants the finished car to produce at least 650 horsepower (484 kW) and weigh approximately 2,000 pounds (907 kg). For perspective, consider that the Mazda MX-5 makes 181 hp (134 kW) and weighs 2,300 pounds (1,043 kg) or more. In other words, the finished Half-11 promises to be nothing short of a missile on wheels.

Powertrain Options

But wait, there’s more. Oilstainlab is also developing an 850 horsepower (633 kW) fully electric variant. Perhaps the wildest part about the drivetrain, though, is the option for buyers willing to drop $2.3 million: they’ll get both powertrains. As Nikita Bridan, one of Oilstainlab’s co-creators alongside his brother Iliya, explained to Car&Driver, “It’s not exactly a powertrain swap; it’s a subframe swap.” This unique flexibility shows how far they’re willing to go to cater to the ultra-rich thrill-seeker.

The pair are brothers who have worked with big-name brands like Genesis, Cadillac, Toyota, and Honda, so they have some idea about what they’re taking on. After creating the Half-11 prototype, they garnered enough interest that a production car in very limited numbers seemed feasible.

Unlike the prototype, the combustion engine in the production car will be a flat-six, which the creators swear is not based on a Porsche case. Also, unlike the prototype, the body will be available in whatever color a buyer might want. It’ll feature a unique carbon fiber monocoque and a choice of gearbox too. Buyers can have a six-speed manual or a seven-speed sequential transmission. The production versions will come out of Multimatic in Canada, the same company responsible for the Ford GT.

“Over the last four years, we have been secretly building our company. A team scouted globally. Maniacs chosen for their unwavering passion, prior industry achievements and bold vision,” said Nikita Bridan. “They have been drawn to Oilstainlab, and we to them. Now with the project public, we are excited to recruit our family of maniacs globally, and can’t wait to start testing with our dedicated team and clients.”

Recruiting Maniacs

At this stage, the company is focused on finding the right buyers for these exclusive machines. Their plan includes enlisting 11 of these owners to participate as testers. Oilstainlab refers to these select few as “maniacs.”

“Our goal right now is to find the 11 maniacs that’ll be part of our development program,” Nikita says. “We’ve got six that we’re pretty sure want to be part of it. And then we’re hopeful that, once the car has been shown, we’ll be able to find the other five.” He pauses. “I mean, we’re kind of building a family here in many ways. We’re only going to build 25 cars. We don’t want dickheads to be part of the family.”

It’s worth noting that Oilstainlab has a lot of work to do to see this car become a real-world production car, even in super-limited numbers. As of this writing, it still needs to finalize a lot of what the production car will be. We don’t yet know who will build the engine, what the development team looks like, or exactly when the first one is set to roll off the line. Here’s to hoping it all works out though.
