Steven Tyler's Hennessey Venom GT Spyder Could Be Yours

What is more exclusive than a Hennessey Venom GT? A Venom GT Spyder, obviously. And what do you do if this car isn't rare enough for you -despite the fact that only six have ever been built-? You can always try and buy Steven Tyler's Venom GT!

Aerosmith's singer likes fast cars: he had a Panoz Roadster and a Porsche 911 Turbo at some point. When the time came to get another toy, M. Tyler chose Hennessey's most powerful creation. Problem was, the Venom GT only came as a coupe... and the singer wanted a convertible.

The Texan tuner found a way to accommodate the celebrity: by chopping the roof off and adding a few tubular braces, he created the Spyder.
Now, you can buy this amazing car: Steven Tyler is putting this Spyder up for sale. Powered by a 7-litre V8 and two large turbos, the car develops 1,244 horsepower and reach 320 km/h in less than 16 seconds.

This Venom GT Spyder will be sold through an auction. The starting bid is set at $1.1 million US, about the price M. Tyler paid in the first place. You'll be happy to know that the profits of this sale will be sent to a charity.
