ANTAS V8 GT is the first 'Berlinetta' (touring car) created in the F & M workshop. It is completely inspired by the philosophy and material used in the 'special series' of the past: the body, for example, is made of aluminium and completely built by hand.
ANTAS is driven by a powerful V8 MASERATI engine fed by carburettors and endowed wîth a pleasing elasticity of power, which gives the 'driver' the sensation of 'true' §teering typical of the great touring cars of the past. Because of this, when the time came to name this 'jewel,' a word was chosen that comes from the ancient Tuscan language of the ETRÚSCANS: ANTAS, which means EAGLE, the noblest and most audacious dominator of open spaces.
On delivery, ANTAS comes equipped wîth a case covered in blue velvet bearing the silver plate wîth the identification numbers; inside are a photography book and a DVD documenting the construction of the vehicle.Source - Faralli & Mazzanti
