From the iconic Lucy to the track-ready Sunny, the team's journey culminates in the creation of a jaw-dropping air-cooled masterpiece.

But it's not just about power - every inch of this machine exudes precision and craftsmanship. From custom magnesium wheels to 3D printed components, no detail is overlooked in the pursuit of automotive perfection. The team's dedication to innovation shines through in the meticulous adjustments made to the bodywork, wheelbase, and aerodynamics, resulting in a truly unique driving experience.

As the roaring engine promises 800 horsepower and cutting-edge thermal management, the Type 99 project sets its sights on the high-octane world of endurance racing. This isn't just a car; it's a bold statement of intent, marking a significant shift for the team from mere modifiers to full-fledged creators of automotive art. With 50 cars slated for production, Larry Chen and his crew are ready to take on the elite players in the bespoke automotive arena, solidifying their position as true visionaries in the world of high-performance vehicles.
