“Today was a special day,” the caption reads. “Such an honor to build a special Venom F5 for a special friend.”

Only 30 of the cars were made, per Robb Report. According to the report, the car can reach speeds in excess of 300 mph, and the vehicle is priced at $3 millionThe company has called it “the world’s fastest and most powerful convertible.”

“We created the Venom F5 to be the ultimate expression of a hypercar,” John Hennessey said in a statement when the car was announced. “Our 1,817 bhp ‘Fury’ engine screams behind the exposed cockpit, with its roar unobstructed by a roof—it is an unmatched automotive experience.”

Jordan is no stranger to fast cars.
