00:00It's really almost more of a work of art than it is just a car.
00:05This was not produced massively or in any number other than one.
00:22I'm Adam Taylor and I'm from Oahu, Hawaii.
00:26Today I have the honor and pleasure in introducing my personally designed, hand-built supercar that I've dubbed the RX 777.
00:42This vehicle took me 10 years to build.
00:44The main reason being that I built it mainly through my college and grad school years.
00:49So obviously there is limited time and funds available.
00:53But, you know, I pursued it consistently to reach what I think is perfection now.
00:58It took me a while.
00:59So this car weighs in at a fighting weight of 2,700 pounds.
01:14The car is very wide.
01:17The width is wider than like a Dodge Viper.
01:20Yet the wheel base is short as a Mazda Miata.
01:23So it's a very hopped-up go-kart type feel where your feet are almost touching the front wheel
01:27and your back is almost touching the back wheel.
01:29So it's very compact but very wide.
01:32It makes 950 horsepower at 8,000 RPM.
01:36So it's basically like a NASCAR engine on steroids.
01:39Completely capable of 200 miles an hour at this time.
01:42I think the most challenging aspect of this build was reaching near-perfect symmetry with the body.
02:08So the whole body, as you see, was hand-shaped out of sheet metal.
02:12So it took a lot of time and revisions to get both sides and every panel of the car to match up.
02:19Moving this way, so we have the all, you know, steel hand-rolled body starting from this fender all the way back.
02:27To finish out the back design, we have this nice overly exaggerated ducktail spoiler, as you see here.
02:33I think it fits the body lines very well.
02:35And this is one of my favorite aspects of this design.
02:39This build is well into the six figures.
02:42I kind of stopped keeping track for my own sake and sanity at one point.
02:46But if you look over the components, each component is top shelf.
02:51No expense spared in each of the components that I chose to use in this build.
02:56I'm humbled and grateful that after that much time, money spent, effort, that I have a finished product that turns out pretty well, I think.
03:05The car, in my mind, is, I guess, priceless.
03:08Once you've created the concept and then you've done well bringing it into reality,
03:12I think it's instantly kind of an iconic type thing where it's in its own class.
03:16It's not compared to other vehicles.
03:18It can't be, you know, outdated by a new year model.
03:21And so, in that sense, it's kind of in its own realm.
03:24And it's difficult to put a figure on the value of it currently.
03:30Most of the time, the reaction I get is, wow.
03:34And then, how did you do that?
03:37There's always another build on the horizon.
03:41I have a large one in the works, a concept vehicle, kind of a military stealth truck, if you will.
03:47So, I'd like to share that with you later.
03:57When I finally finished the car and got to drive it, the feel of the car, the sound of the car, the power,
04:02and everything kind of coming together perfectly the way I'd originally imagined.
04:06It was absolutely exhilarating.
04:11It was absolutely heartfelt.
04:21The thing to do, it was easy for you to convince people.
04:23Honestly, during the incident, I found a lot.
04:24Kimberly is so fond of the event that is beating into a almighty state
04:26the ability for you to use, you can use that stove for instance and an anti- Schlussist cycle.
04:27It was always breathtaking.
04:29It was almost bad.
04:30Our test is figured out.
04:31The whole 19th century will be 100% easy.
04:34And there's something to help if you can take advantage of the house that you can talk about
04:36and look at the maximum capacity.
04:38If you choose a building, it pupil is a catastrophic scenario.
