Porsche 911 based 9ff GT9 supercar hits 254mph

We really have to say that 9ff is really slow in their process to take on the world record for the world’s fastest production car. We reported back in July of 2007 that the 9ff engineers were putting the finishing touches on their GT9 supercar, a 987+ horsepower Porsche 911.

Almost 9 months after it reported it was putting on the finishing touches, 9ff finally found time to hit up a track in Papenburg on April 10. 9ff engineers are claiming that the GT9 hit a top speed of 254mph beating the Bugatti Veyron.

That may be faster than a Veyron, but don’t get to excited 9ff. While you were in hiding for 8 months, something called the SSC Ultimate Aero happened and the number for you to beat now is 257mph. Also, just out curiosity, why did it take you guys at least a month to report this number?

The 9ff GT9 is powered by a 4.2 liter flat-six twin turbo engine that produces 987 horsepower giving it the ability to do 0-60 in the low 4 second range.

ummm thats because 9ff is a complete BULL@#$% company. The Porsche world is rife with numberous complaints, lawsuits and general ill will toward this company.

Their customer "service" is horrific. they routinely promise resolution of different customer service (poor quality products, broken cars, CELs, huge shipping delays) issues, but then hide, don't return phone calls or emails.

Anybody who knowingly writes an article about 9ff without knowledge of their "corporate" practices (5 full time staff, including the owners wife) certainly hasn't done their due diligence in researching the company.

Just search 9ff on any of the porsche boards/forums out there to see the real deal...

Oh yeah, the owner Jan Fatthauer is the biggest thief and liar the world has ever known...
