When you think of rides that can smoke a Corvette, the Jeep Wrangler is about the last thing on your mind. But SoFlo Customs’ newly revealed Speedster is designed to leave America’s sports car eating its dust, or so the Florida company claims. It says the Jeep can also gap Ford Mustangs and other performance cars, thanks to its unique design.
This highly modified Hellcat Redeye is being auctioned online right now.
At the heart of the SoFlo Speedster is a 392 Hemi V8 with 575-horsepower, but this build goes so much further. SoFlo in fact says it’s “the way the Jeep Rubicon 392 should have been built.” The Wrangler sits low but has 40-inch Nitto tires mounted on 22-inch wheels.
Both axles are 44-inch Danas with electronic locking differentials, so this thing can still venture off the paved pathway. But we wouldn’t take it rock crawling, thanks to the lower ground clearance and lofty price tag of $99,999 to $129,000.
The aggressive exterior design was created to mimic the Stealth Bomber, says SoFlo. That means plenty of angular pieces SoFlo’s Apocalypse brand has popularized. While it has an “Angry Eyes Jeep” vibe, that’s dialed up to a ten.
Plus, the SoFlo Speedster is bathed in an armored coating you can get in a matte or gloss finish as well as in a variety of colors, including Pepsi Blue.
You’ll also note gone is the backseat, replaced by a 5-foot pickup bed that has a 2×2-foot hidden storage compartment. A steel roll cage is also back there, adding some structure as well as some utilitarian flair.
This “4×4 rocket ship” will surely turn a lot of heads, even among other tricked-out Jeeps at any gathering. It’s a statement vehicle and a flex we expect will only appeal to a few well-heeled shoppers, which will include celebrities, business owners, etc.
