“I will not suffer in the stream”: Chelyabinets made a designer sports car and rushes around the city more

The 26-year-old Denis Cardonov pumped his car and drives Chelyabinsk at frantic speed. Three years ago, the entrepreneur bought a used Volkswagen Golf-R and began to tunen it. He turned the blue compartment into a bright pink sports car with unicorns and cats on board-the car, according to the driver, accelerates in 3.9 seconds (approximately like some Lamborghini). The colorful car in the city is known under the code name Unicorn: some are staring, others scold for impudent maneuvers. We talk about investments in the designer foreign car, its owner and fines of the traffic police.

At first the car was blue, but it quickly bored the driver: the car became purple, then-bright pink

Her name is unicorn

Denis proudly says that in terms of speed, Volkswagen is not inferior to the sports Mercedes and BMW, with Lamborghini have not yet been competed, but there are chances, he wonders. To achieve such results, the driver underestimated the car, made body kit and chip tuning-a special setting of engine operating modes, which allows you to increase the power of the motor.

-Golf-R-one of the budget sportsmen, the car is all-wheel drive. She has 256 horsepower in the factory configuration, says Denis. -I made a chip tuning, it turned out 360–380 horsepower: the speed is higher, if you refuel with hundredth gasoline-in our city it is only at four gas stations. I improved the intake and release system, and to make it safe, I changed the brakes (pads, disks).

A sticker with white cats and unicorns appeared due to a passion for a brand of clothing Ripndip

In parallel, he took up body design: the blue car quickly bored a young man. Thus, cheerful cats and unicorns appeared on the one hand, and a pink mirror film on the other.

“She came to me from Crimea blue, I was quickly tired of it, I began to work on her,” the driver recalls. -She was completely purple, then there were Off-White stickers (the Italian brand of premium clothing.- Approx. Ed.), then added Kotikov, then pink chrome went. The concept was this: one side is more calm, the other painted. White cats are a branded style of the Ripndip brand (an American company that produces T -shirts and hoodies with a white cat, is popular with skaters). I love bright things, it expresses me, so I wanted to do something like this. Now her name is unicorn, she even has her Instagram.
