Geneva Show: Sbarro' Autobau is Ready for Takeoff

Posted by Mr Dung Friday, March 5, 2010

 

Swiss performance car and replica builder Sbarro introduced another new concept at the Geneva Motor Show this year.  Powered by a 500-horsepower 12-cylinder engine from Ferrari, the Sbarro Autobau is certain to tear up the pavement.

Love it or hate it, the Autobau is the only car of its kind at Geneva.  While we note the three-pointed front end, a la Speed Racer, it has also been compared to the Cylon Raider from Battlestar Galactica and the Pink Panther-mobile.

Sbarro designed the 1,500-kilogram car in honor of his friend, Fredy Lienhard.  The Swiss race car driver has competed since the 1970s. He has had notable wins at the 24 Hours of Zolder in 1997 and 24 Hours of Daytona in 2002.

Let us know what you think of the Sbarro Autobau in the comments below.
