Porsche tuner creates sex on wheels

9ff, a Porsche tuner that, on December 12, 2004, broke the top speed World Record for all street legal vehicles with a speed of 241.1mph. This tops their own previous world record for all street legal Porsches set in June, 2004 with a speed of 231mph. This was done with their 9F V-400 supercar, which produces close to 840hp.

now, attaining car maker rating like rival RUF, they are beginning work on a 900hp supercar inspired by the GT1.

saw a pic in a magazine, but couldn't find much on teh internets. it will look something like this:


HAWT!!!!!

Maybe he meant World record for Porsche's

The Koenigsegg is supposed to reach 245mph and that's not even the CCR model with even more power.
