Vehicle Description
This extremely rare Hennessey Venom GT Spyder comes from the personal collection of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and four-time Grammy winner Steven Tyler. This supercar is the fifth of only 12 Hennessey Venom GTs ever created and the first of the Spyder convertibles. It is the convertible version of the record-setting Venom GT that recorded a top speed of 270.49 mph at Kennedy Space Center in 2014. The 7.0-liter V8 engine produces 1,244hp that muscles the 2,743-pound convertible from 0-60 mph in 2.7 seconds and 0-200 mph in 14.5 seconds. The mid-engine car with rear-wheel drive has a body made of carbon-fiber and a composite/aluminum hybrid monocoque-space frame. The vehicle's features include 6-piston Brembo fixed-caliper brakes with carbon-ceramic rotors, rack & pinion steering with 6-position variable electric assist, Ricardo 6-speed manual transmission, unequal-length A-arms and anti-roll bars, Penske 2-way-adjustable coilovers and adjustable ride height. The car rides on Hennessey H10 forged monoblock wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. The Venom GT Spyder also has a custom JL Audio stereo system befitting a rock and roll superstar. This extraordinary supercar will be sold with 100 percent of the hammer price benefiting Janie's Fund, a philanthropic initiative created by Tyler in partnership with Youth Villages to bring hope and healing for many of our country's most vulnerable girls who have suffered the trauma of abuse and neglect.
