The German Bomb Drops

I thought it was cool when we had our Blue WRX in a couple magazines. It was fun having the first fully built EVO VIII in the USA. It was nice having a badass 2004 Subaru all hooked up. I was amazed when we bought our first real car, the BMW M3. But after 4 years of slaving, thinking, selling, pissing people off, and basically destroying the competition...we have started a new chapter in the Vivid Racing project car extravaganza. Let me introduce you to the VR Porsche 996 Carrera.
Why the Porsche? Cause it is the only car we could tightly pack 3 strippers in and feel good about ourselves still! In all seriousness, the 996 is the true racers platform. The normally aspirated engine, the incredible handling, 6 speed transmission, and cockpit that makes you feel you are ready to race. With our continuing high end service and parts, we wanted to target some of the road racing's elite community by having the 996.
Are you guys millionaires? No not yet...so we bought this car used from NXCESS in Houston, TX. After we saw the car on EBAY, we had to have it. The car had 20,000 miles, 19" BBS LM wheels, H&R springs, factory sport seats, and a brand new paint job. We bought it for a smokin price!
Now we take on our incredible task of making it simply disgusting, featuring it on our website, VR Videos, and soon many magazines. So get ready for another trip into our crazy minds as we push the limits!
