A superb vehicle, well done for squeezing that V12 into the front of that body!

It’s properly mental - huge power and plenty of cargo space, especially in wagon form. Are any other body styles available for this car? Anyway, it’s tough to put a V12 in this particular body, whereas the not-A7 body from @Corvette6317 can accommodate a larger V12 with room to spare.

Well , the not-A7 body only comes in sedan form and i wanted to make a V12 station wagon.
About the body styles , there’s sedan , coupe , convertible and this station wagon. You know it’s in the vanilla game right?
Economy needs some work man. I know you can at least get that efficiency down to .6 with more compression or leaner mix even on regular 91 AKI fuel.
Great rival for my new V12 Hadron though. Upmarket sedans/wagons are getting kinda sparse these days.
@Deskyx Well , i wasn’t paying any attention while making this engine , so yeah 
1967 Steven Ventura Hyperion Sedan 3500
Before Ventura Automotives was borned , the founder of Ventura Automotives named Steven Ventura built his first car properly named Hyperion 3500. Hyperion is based on Fiat 124 chassis where he bought it at Italy. When he brought it to U.S , he wasn’t satisfied with a slow sedan. So , he came up an idea where he put a small block V8 and then viola! Hyperion was borned.
While the rear-end and front-end has changed , everything on Hyperion is just Fiat 124 stuff. Nothing changed. He produced this car in his garage in Tennessee , U.S. He only produced 3 of them , making a very very rare car. What’s so special about this car that he send of this car to a magazine called Road & Track. He was expecting that company won’t accept the car but they did! Skipping a couple days ahead , the review of Hyperion came out and this is the result :
And he was excited about the result! He thought putting a small block V8 on a Fiat 124 chassis is a bad idea but it’s the opposite. Road & Track gave it a thumbs up for this indie car maker for a genuine car ride. A couple days after the review came out , the offer from Dodge company just sent him a letter that he’s hiring Steven as their designer. Well , he did agreed on it as he’s hoping to be a legendary car designer. Years and years working at the Dodge , designing their cars , he decided to open his own car company and thus born the company of Ventura that we know today. Only 1 of the Hyperion were survived and the other 2 is gone and got crushed.

It looks like a puppy car 
And that engine is being choked by the rev limiter.

@Sillyworld Blame that the engine can’t take over than 5000 RPM due to low quality material that he used 
2016 Ventura Hyperion Mach 2
It’s been almost 50 year since the pre-Ventura car have been made and that is Hyperion 3500. The pictures of the car were scattered in the internet because the speciality of the car and how unique it is than other American cars. Sure , it is just Fiat 142 all over but putting a small block V8 in it , making it a special car.
The year is 2016 , Detroit Auto Show was held every year to showcase every car that they have made from every car brand across the land of freedom. Meanwhile at the Ventura Automotives booth , something’s interesting that caught many people’s eye. People gathered around the car to see how does it look. Camera’s everywhere and flashes upon the car and it was a legendary Steven Ventura Hyperion 3500. It was in a clean pristine condition , every parts was there and everything’s good but what’s more interesting is a new little brother was borned. It was called Hyperion Mach 2.
Hyperion Mach 2 still have small block V8 in it on a fairly mid-size sedan , competing with other sports sedan like Cadillac CTS-V , Lexus IS 350 F and other interesting sport sedan. It was no longer a budget pony car but it became a true muscle car thanks to the engine. Funny enough , many people called the old Hyperion is a puppy car due to those big headlights and the traditional of being a cute puppy to an angry puppy was applied at Hyperion Mach 2 with the angry front-end.
Inside , the interior is just a Standard interior with standard radio to keep the car lightweight and various options were available for the customers for their pure comfort.
Road & Track did reviewed this car and gave it a thumbs up and a throwback of the original review of the Hyperion 3500 was included in the magazine to make a comparision between 3500 and Mach 2.

That is some low HP for today.
Consider ramping up the quality in top end over bottom end? MOHVs can quality spam without alot of production unit increase.
Maybe some more aggressive cam timing?

First of all, bump compression a bit, as this engine doesn’t use fuel octane fully - that should both add some power and lower the fuel consumption. But the styling of the car is good 
@Deskyx Hah , never knew that. Thought the production unit will increase if you increase the quality. Thanks for the tips!
@szafirowy01 Welp , i’ve bump my compression up to it’s limit and can’t get higher than that and again , thanks for the tips.
Oh production units will rise, just to a much much lower extent than a DOHC set up. You can get away with plus 9 without going above 100 if you go easy on the bottom end.
OHV or bust when it comes to V8s 
2012 Ventura Ferocity.
It’s been a while since we heard an affordable SUV that has good off-road capability like legendary Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 , old Jeep and others. Ventura Automotives stepped in to the off-road SUV territory and this SUV was borned named Ferocity. This SUV only came in concept version as they were still in developing Ferocity for much more off-road capability and good comfort on the ride. Ferocity came in 3.5 turbocharged V6 or 2.5 turbocharged inline 6 but the model were only shown 3.5 V6 only as 2.5 turbocharged inline 6 was still in development.
Inside , there was consist of 7-seater which was spacious and comfortable. The rear seats can be folded down to put your hiking packs and other various things and same things went to middle row seat , they can be folded. Ferocity can be driven RWD , 4WD or 4x4 by pushing a button on the driver’s console and the drivetrain that you were currently using was shown between rev-meter and speedometer.
V6 AWD
Normal SUV also was shown next to off-road going Ferocity. It was your daily driver SUV and smaller engine for much more smoother and quiet ride. Everything else , it’s just your typical SUV so nothing special 
and the CEO stated that this SUV will be on the road in late 2013.
