In this riveting episode from Larry Chen, we delve into the extraordinary creation of a Golf car that defies all norms. Facing a nail-biting engine failure just 48 hours before its scheduled voyage, the team embarked on a race against time to rebuild the engine and piece the car together. The second version of this Golf marvel boasts a Turbo Charge and a unique exhaust system that screams power and performance. A fusion of Golf 3 and Golf 2 components, this beast features an R32 engine with twin turbos, churning out a mind-blowing 1000 horsepower. Despite its sheer power, this car is not destined for land speed records due to its unconventional design.

Larry Chen and his team's meticulous attention to detail shines through with a gold-plated face mask and intercooler, adding a touch of luxury to this high-performance machine. With a design inspired by German BOS zoku style, this Golf creation is a true work of art on wheels. Larry reflects on the car's journey to the prestigious SEMA show, where it garnered international acclaim and admiration. The camaraderie and mutual respect between Larry and his colleague are palpable, as they discuss each other's driving prowess and dedication to their craft. Larry's philosophy on letting the content speak for itself, rather than asking for subscribers, underscores his commitment to producing top-notch automotive content that speaks volumes.
