Hey Guys, things have been really busy and I have not had a chance to even post pics of the new project car that I chose to replace the 7series.

As everyone knows, I strongly believe in being the first partaker, so I use my personal vehicle to represent D2-AUTOSPORT (along with our other project vehicles).

With that being said, the 7series' time was up, and it was time to plan the next vehicle. The entire promo team has run the gamut of luxury and ultra luxury vehicles, so Stefan introduced the idea of moving towards dedicated sports and exotic vehicles. First the Corvete, then the 997TT, then the Gallardo. When I looked at all the options out there, the Viper just fit the bill: speed, exclusivity, reliability, aftermarket support, and of course wow factor.

It has 500hp, 525lbft tq, and a 8.3l V-10 motor. Top speed is approx 198mph and 0-60 is 3.8sec. It does 60mph in first gear! Lol. It is a car that MUST be handled with reverance and respect or you can expect to be looking at oncoming traffic in a heartbeat! (The day I picked it up, I stomped it and the car went sideways across 2 lanes of the highway! :eek: I caught the slide, changed my underwear and have respected the car ever since). You simply can not stomp on the pedals, and jerk the steering wheel, etc.

Its a really different vehicle for me, with my luxury background, but I like it.

Here are some pics, and of course if you guys have questions, let me know:

 

I just wanna know when you're picking me up?

Car is beautiful Derrick

 

Car is beautiful!! My brother in law has a Black Viper. The ride was amazing!!

 

Looks clean and fast. Keep moving forward and GL on your business.

 

Derrick,

Absolutely an amazing car. Had the opportunity last summer when Chrysler Canada was showcasing their SRT line-up at a local airport. Driver took me on a hot lap and I swear I almost crapped myself. The amount of pull this car has is incredible. Can't wait to see what you do to it!!

I know you are going to transform this car into a show stopper as you did the 7 series. HOT!

 

That car is just overall mind blowing . . enjoy it & be safe.

 

very nice. can't wait 2 see what you have planned.

 

I can't say I was expecting red, but it looks great! Congrats on the car.

 

Cool, another project car!
Can't wait to see what you are going to do with it.

 

I got a chance to see this beast in person a few months ago when Derrick and crew came to DC. This car looks and sounds incredible here are a few shots from DC, D I hope you don't mind me posting.

 

Red Viper looks nice Congrats !!

 

I love seeing Derrick doing it big time! Congrats and good luck on the new project. What other rides are you all working on now? Need a nsx?

 

Can't wait to see the finished product!

 

Thanks very much for the kind words, I truly appeciate it.


I know what you mean, I test drove one, but didnt really give it much throttle, I was just feeling it out. When I bought mine I got a chance to really push it and I was amazed. Its was scary actually! I have gotten used to it now, but it does take time.
