00:02From the ground up, everything about this car is aggressive, vicious, exceptional.
00:13It should be able to do somewhere around 230 miles an hour.
00:17It's just a completely different world.
00:19It's like this epic event every time you take this car out.
00:29If you're planning to make a big impression at one of the largest car shows on the planet,
00:34you're going to need an impressive machine.
00:36This vehicle certainly is that.
00:39And it's currently in the care of Sean, owner of high-end vehicle storage and concierge facility Autopia.
00:47The owner of this car wanted to take a car to SEMA and he wanted it to be something
00:52that everyone would talk about.
00:54He started with not a great 65 Mustang.
00:58It needed a ton of work, metal work.
01:00It needed everything.
01:01And that was the idea was to start with a low-dollar donor car.
01:05You weren't ruining a car that should have been preserved.
01:08The most expensive element is all the hand fabrication work that was done to the body.
01:15Honestly, parts just sitting on the floor of your garage, not putting anything together yet.
01:20You're already in hundreds of thousands of dollars.
01:23All the internals were rebuilt.
01:25It's all forged stuff.
01:27It's a compound-charged car with a supercharger, also twin turbos.
01:33You talk about 10,000 hours of work that went into this car to ultimately create what we call vicious
01:39Mustang.
01:39This quest for perfection led to a final price tag of one million dollars.
01:46And you can forget material comforts.
01:49This vehicle is a no expense spared, performance focused beast.
01:57This car has no air conditioning in it.
01:59It has no heater in it.
02:00It has no stereo in it.
02:02It has very little heat treatment or sound deadening.
02:05So the sounds you hear are incredible.
02:20This splitter here is all metal.
02:23You've got cool intakes here to bring air.
02:28The forge line wheels fit this car perfectly.
02:31Even little details like this where they went, instead of leaving the brake, they went with vicious on it.
02:37And they matched the paint exact to this, which this color is called vicious titanium silver.
02:44They actually gave it its own name.
02:51The bubble on top of the hood, that's for the supercharger.
02:57It's a costly piece of equipment going on under the hood.
03:02The interior on this car, again, everything was race themed, but there's still some beauty in here.
03:14I love the simplicity down here as far as the buttons go.
03:19It's some wonderful leather.
03:21Instead of having a traditional gauge cluster, it's a Motec onboard management system.
03:26You can program the screen to show you whatever you want.
03:29If you just wanted to have tack or tack and speed, and that's something you'll see in most race cars.
03:35It's a sequential six speed transmission from Emco.
03:39Very similar to what you see in a lot of GT3 race cars.
03:43But rather than wanting to shift with a stick, the option was to go with paddles.
03:48The shifts are programmed at two and a half milliseconds, which is just extreme.
03:53By the time you're letting go of the paddle, your head's already gone like that and the shift has already
03:58happened.
03:59You barely lose any RPM.
04:02You'll go through the gears really fast.
04:05It's like this epic event every time you take this car out for a drive.
04:10We haven't tested zero to 60 speed.
04:13We're guessing it should be in the high twos, two eight, two nine, somewhere around there.
04:20It's detuned 30% from what the max would be on this car.
04:24It's making 1,003 horsepower at the rear wheels.
04:27If we completely uncorked the tune, we could probably get somewhere in the neighborhood of about 1,250 at the
04:32wheel.
04:32Honestly, 1,000 horsepower at the rear wheels, a lot for a street car.
04:38But it just had to be in that power range.
04:41Top speed, we don't know yet because we haven't actually had enough open road for it.
04:45It should be able to do somewhere around 230 miles an hour.
04:50It really is a radical extreme race car.
04:53That was the intent and that's what was accomplished with this.
04:57This is not a, hey, let's go for a comfortable drive at any time, even at speed limit just cruising
05:04in this thing.
05:05It's always extreme.
