The CMA Flecha Azul VIII represents the pinnacle of Brazilian road engineering. Manufactured in the late 1990s, this model fulfilled the dream of every bus enthusiast and driver: it combined the renowned and indestructible corrugated duralumin body (inspired by dinosaurs) with Scania's revolutionary Series 4 engine. Unlike its mechanical K-113 predecessors, the Flecha VIII (with the prefix 7445) was born with the electronic heart of the Scania K-124 IB chassis, delivering 420 horsepower with digital management, ABS brakes, and the unmistakable sound of the turbine "singing" smoothly.

Bus 7445 sports the "Hale-Bopp" (or Stylized Comet) livery, the last official visual identity created under the original management of Viação Cometa. The fluid graphic of the comet tearing across the metallic blue side symbolized the company's entry into the new millennium. In this particular vehicle, the paint scheme takes on a special meaning: it adorns the latest generation of the classic body. It's a visual fusion between the nostalgia of the "airplane" design and the performance of a chassis that is still considered modern today.

Alexandre Guedes recreated the 7445 prefix with surgical precision. The horizontal artwork highlights the subtle differences of the Model VIII, such as the new air intakes for the K-124 electronic engine and the positioning of the support axle. Technical details, such as the Series 4 rear axle hub and the electronic panel (represented in the cabin's posture), differentiate this poster from any other Flecha. It's a record of a 420hp giant that "flew low" on the Dutra highway, offering the comfort of red leather with the safety of Swedish electronics.

Museum Grade Quality for Bus Enthusiasts:

Landscape Format (42 x 30 cm): The horizontal orientation allows you to visualize the imposing 13.2 meters and the complete graphic of the Hale-Bopp comet traversing the fuselage.

Semi-Gloss Finish: The 250g coated paper with a semi-gloss finish is essential for capturing the "Metallic Blue" tone of the Hale-Bopp paint, differentiating it from the solid blue of older models and enhancing the shine of the Alcoa wheels.

Technical Exclusivity: A profile that celebrates the rare combination of "Classic Body + Electronic Engine," a detail that only true connoisseurs of Cometa's history can identify.
