Another supercar is now set for production – the Arash AF-10 — a creation of Arash Farboud. This £320,000 British supercar is claimed to have a top speed of 220mph. Initially, the car will be fitted with a 7.0-liter V8 engine found in the Corvette Z06, tuned to 550bhp. For a more extreme version, the car is given a bespoke 1200bhp 7.2-litre V8. Power will be channeled through a six-speed Graziano gearbox but another option would be the six-speed sequential gearbox found in the Zonda F.
The carbonfiber chassis is being built by EPM Technology, which is the company responsible for the Force India F1 car chassis. Keeping the AF-10 on the road is a triple rear diffuser and separate front wing inspired by the Yamaha OX99-11 supercar. Since weight is kept down to a low 1260kg, the car is able to get to 60mph in less than four seconds.
The car is quite pricey since very few parts on the AF-10 will come from other cars. The wheels will be 19-inch at the front and 20-inch at rear, with double-wishbones all round. Loris Bicocchi, who helped fine-tune the Bugatti Veyron, is carrying out the chassis work, which is due to start immediately.
You may recognize the creator Arash Farboud as the one who built the Farboud GTS that is now the Farbio.
