Since we managed to slip by security at the Geneva Motor Show 2014 and already started snapping photos of the most interesting cars there, we couldn’t overlook the ‘greenest’ car there, the FAB Design Lamborghini Aventador.
The color they chose is simply stunning and it caught the attention of everyone once the veils were taken off, filling the room with a fresh air, just as its name suggests, Ithaca Verde.
Unlike other massive tuning kits we’ve seen before from different companies, the guys from FAB Design decided to improve it with taste, adding subtle details here and there.
The Swiss first mentioned they will be creating a special Aventador last year, back in August, teasing us ever since. Well, the moment has come to take a look at their creation and see exactly what’s what.
The front bumper was changed, with more angles and air intakes than what we’re used to, all meant to give the car an aerodynamic enhancement. Further along the sides, we noticed the new wheels that are also sporting Verde Ithaca accents on the spikes and the carbon fiber touch on the massive air intake in front of the rear wheels.
Round the back, just on top of the engine bay, the Lambo received a ridiculously big wing, also made of Carbon Fibre that perfectly matches the roof scoop that helps cool down the engine. Also at the back, there’s a new, improved diffuser made of the same lightweight material. The already existing meshes under the taillights received new, beefier edges meant to make the car even more aggressive, in combination with the new side skirts.
It’s obvious that the guys did they best to come up with a serious upgrade to the original car and, it seems they managed to pull it off. Some might say that the color is a bit extreme but everything is when you own a Lamborghini, right?
The stock car has 700 HP coming out of a naturally aspirated V12 6.5-liter engine that allows it to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 2.9 seconds with a top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph). All the way you’re being pushed against the back of your seat by 690 Nm (509 lb-ft) of torque.
No word on engine tuning from FAB just yet but if there’s been any messing around with the ECU, we’ll find about it tomorrow at the official release of the car during the first press day of the Geneva Motor Show 2014.
