a little spoiler about the lore
Lore
3HOUND (stylized as 3IIIHOVND) is a specialty division of Brent, like the Q division of Aston Martin, 3HOUND is tuning cars according to customer's preference. The precursor to 3HOUND is Glazovich Specialty, began operating in 1973, in the times of oil crisis and the need for better-handling vehicles at an arid and hot environment in Gasmea. Glazovich name was derived from the founder's birth family name. Not only flagship vehicles but entry-level ones were also modified by request. Due to sheer amount of demand, Brent lent a medium-sized factory for Glazovich Specialty. Perhaps the most notable effort by Glazovich Specialty was participation of Can-Am and 24 Hours of Le Mans (despite utter failures).
The tuning firm changed name to 3HOUND in 1996 and separated into a new entity, not only they were modifying cars from other manufacturers but they also made their own cars too. 3HOUND went public in 2001, prompting new Brent CEO to buy back 3HOUND in 2009, citing good amount of demand & it's racing history. Even though the company was bought back, Brent still allowed 3HOUND to tune cars from other companies.
3HOUND Vela Supersport 800TT is based on 2012 Brent Vela 445C, it was requested by a person who wants a Hypercar that compromised between sheer performance, ride quality, and reliability. Information about cost & price is currently undisclosed by request.
