F&M Vulca V12
F&M Auto has revealed the first renderings and information of the Vulca V12, a 2+2 exclusive coupé that will be engineered and produced in-house in a very limited series. Among the features is the hand-beaten aluminium bodywork.
Following the Antas V8 G, the Vulca V12 is the first car entirely designed and developed in-house by Italian atelier F&M Auto.
The name, as per Faralli & Mazzanti tradition, is inspired by the Etruscan world. Vulca da Veio is the most famous Etruscan sculptor, responsible for some of the most well known artistical expressions of this great and mysterious ancient population, including the “Apollo di Veio”.
The renderings were created by Hungarian designer Zsolt Tárnok (www.tarnok-design.com).
Vulca V12 classically interprets the typical concept of “GT all’italiana” ("GT the Italian way"): lightweight, hand beaten all aluminium bodywork, 2+2 coupè, sinuous and modern, elegant yet aggressive style.
Powered by a V12 engine, the Vulca will be produced in just 10 units, individually numbered. "This will ensure exclusivity and unbelievable attention to detail."

About F&M Auto
F&M Auto is the point of arrival of a road started by Faralli & Mazzanti with the restoration of classic touring cars, like the Cisitalia 202 and the unique Maserati 450 coupé Zagato "the Monster", the only model set up by Stirling Moss during the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1957.
The mission of the F&M Project is to combine the knowledge acquired from the "master body makers" with a modern style that takes inspiration from the past.
