Hey, there we have Arash. With a AF8 this time..

Farboud Arash is already a year or ten working with all kinds of luchtfietsprojecten that, until now, still in the bud were smothered. The Farboud GTS never came of the ground, as well as the Arash AF-10. A moment later, Farboud Farbio, and we saw conceptmodellen as the GTS 400. It is a busy guy, Arash.

We believe that Ginetta and Farbio eventually get something together going to do, but by that time we were the trail has been long lost, the wire, and confused, and took the interest in this mooiprater to be honest, also a little off. You have to finally agree with a product, instead of just using plans. What can he Victor Muller hand shaking.

Now, in 2014, try to Arash again. After a large teaseroffensief shows the company the AF8. In 2008, we also saw all the sketches of an AF-8 (see photo below), but now there is an actual body, which is making its debut in Geneva.

As you can see is the silly periscope disappeared, and actually the looks of the model not at all wrong. From the front, then, once you get him in profile view it is still a bit of a module. It will, however, wonder if the company, at this time actually to a really product, it will kick. Persistence pays?

The AF8 is a small piece of (4.15 x 1,90 meters), weighs 1,200 kg, and is on a “Hybrid” carbon fiber and aluminum chassis with carbon fiber panels on the bodywork. The heart is formed by a 7 liter V8 to 550 hp and 640 Nm kicks, and is linked to a zesbak.

The forged aluminum wheels measuring 19-inch front and 20 inch at the rear, with 345 mm wide rubber at the rear. 0-96 comes in 3.5 seconds and its top is 320 km/h, however, with the addition of ‘tb’; not tuberculosis, but ‘to be confirmed’. It will make us wonder.

Update: VIDEO.
