That it is possible thanks to the Bentley Boys USA, and specifically Arturo Alonso who is an engineer and automotive visionary.and they will call it Bentley S3 E Design Concept.

The Hennessey Venom 700NM

The Hennessey Venom 700NM showed its jet black face at the New York Auto Show. 700NM is a Neiman Marcus special edition, available from April 10 but you have to be fast to buy one because only 7 will be made and they will sell like hot tamales for 175,500 American dollars witch also includes 1 day at the world known Lonestar Motorsports Park driving school.

Although we don’t exactly think of a viper when John Hennessey and Neiman Marcus are in the same pot, the Venom 700NM is a more then your usually high performance super car. Declared a world class power car by Hennessey the 700NM is figuratively head of its class with the Dodge Viper SRT-10 engine that offers 700 bhp/522kW 6,200 rpm and 645 lb-ft torque 5,200 rpm which offers an outstanding 3.3 sec from 0 to 60 mph and 7.0 sec to 100 mph, with a top speed of 214 mph.
On the outside it looks like a normal viper with a few exceptions like the VenomAero Exterior Aerodynamic Upgrades Kit a new lightweight alloy wheel upgrade with19×10 inch wheels in front, 20×13 inches in the rear and a 200 mph tested rear wing. Inside the jet viper has black and red leather appointments, a limited edition dash plaque, embroidered floor mats and matching luggage.
