The SSC Tuatara represents American hypercar engineering at its absolute zenith. With 1,750 horsepower, a verified 295 mph top speed, and production limited to just a handful of examples worldwide, the Tuatara commands $1.6 million to $1.9 million—and holds its value as one of the most exclusive hypercars ever built. If you own an SSC Tuatara and need fast liquidity without selling this extraordinary machine, Borro offers confidential loans backed by your hypercar’s value, not your credit score.
Why the SSC Tuatara Makes Exceptional Loan Collateral
The Tuatara isn’t just a hypercar—it’s a statement piece in automotive history. SSC North America spent over a decade developing this American-built speed machine, and the result speaks for itself.
Extreme Rarity and Market Demand
SSC produces the Tuatara in extremely limited numbers, with HK Motorcars serving as the sole dealer worldwide. This exclusivity creates intense collector demand and remarkable value retention. Current market prices range from $1.625 million to over $1.9 million, with certain configurations and delivery positions commanding even higher premiums.[1]
The Tuatara Striker variant—designed for track dominance—adds another layer of collectibility. SSC’s 2025 record tour plans further cement the Tuatara’s place in hypercar history, making early production examples increasingly sought-after.[2]
World-Class Performance Credentials
In May 2022, the SSC Tuatara achieved a verified 295 mph top speed at the Kennedy Space Center, utilizing just 2.3 miles of runway. This makes it one of the fastest street-legal production cars ever tested.[3] Key specifications include:
- 5.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 producing 1,750 HP on E85 fuel (1,350 HP on 91 octane)
- 0-60 mph in approximately 3.0 seconds
- Curb weight of just 3,020-3,051 pounds—exceptional power-to-weight ratio
- Advanced aerodynamics generating 1,100+ pounds of downforce
Authentication and Documentation
Each SSC Tuatara comes with comprehensive documentation: build records, chassis certification, delivery paperwork, and ongoing service history. This documentation—combined with the car’s extreme rarity—makes authentication straightforward and valuation highly reliable for lending purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can I get funded?
Most clients receive funding within 24 to 48 hours after accepting their loan offer. The timeline depends on vehicle inspection logistics and transport arrangements, but we prioritize speed and efficiency.
What if my Tuatara has custom modifications or a unique configuration?
We welcome unique builds and configurations. Custom options, factory upgrades (such as Tuatara Striker components), and documented enhancements can often increase the vehicle’s value and loan potential. Provide detailed documentation of any modifications during the application process.
Do I need perfect credit to qualify?
No. Borro loans are asset-based, meaning your SSC Tuatara’s value is the primary factor in approval—not your credit score or income verification. This makes our loans ideal for entrepreneurs, investors, and business owners who need liquidity without traditional lending hurdles.
How is my Tuatara stored during the loan term?
Your vehicle will be kept in a secure, climate-controlled facility with 24/7 monitoring. It will be fully insured for its appraised value, and we’ll provide periodic updates on its condition. Many clients appreciate the peace of mind that comes with professional storage, especially for limited-use hypercars.
Can I pay off the loan early?
Yes. There are no prepayment penalties. You can repay your loan at any time and retrieve your Tuatara without additional fees.
What happens if I can’t repay the loan?
We work with clients to find flexible solutions, including loan extensions or restructuring terms. Our goal is to help you succeed financially, not to take possession of your vehicle. However, in the event of default, the asset may be sold to satisfy the outstanding loan balance, with any excess proceeds returned to you.
Why Borrow Against Your Hypercar Instead of Selling?
For many SSC Tuatara owners, selling isn’t a viable option. The Tuatara is a once-in-a-lifetime acquisition—a vehicle you may never be able to replace at any price. By borrowing against your hypercar instead of selling it, you can:
- Preserve your position in an exclusive ownership club – Tuatara production is extremely limited
- Access capital while retaining long-term appreciation potential – Rare hypercars often increase in value over time
- Avoid taxable events – Selling may trigger capital gains taxes; borrowing does not
- Seize business or investment opportunities – Fast liquidity lets you act on time-sensitive deals
- Maintain your collection – Keep your hypercar portfolio intact while accessing its value
