Over the years, innovation and evolution have allowed us to build and deliver some of the fastest custom Defenders in the world. Below are our top 5 most fastest custom Defenders that our team has built over the years. Each of these classic Defenders runs a 0-60mph time between 5.25-6.0 seconds.

Project Aloha is a classic Defender 90 in a bright Arctic White gloss paint. This 6.2L LS3-powered Defender 90 pushes 430-horsepower. While it features plenty of modern options and upgrades, Project Aloha is one of the lighter custom Defenders built by ECD. Its powerful LS3 and weight give it the crown for the fastest Defender built by ECD with a 0-60mph time of just 5.25 seconds. See full vehicle showcase for Project Aloha here.

Project Camper is one of our most luxurious custom Defender 110s built to date. Being in this list, it is also one of the fastest Defenders built by ECD. The upgraded 6.2L LS3 V8 engine produces an incredible 565-horsepower. The client for this vehicle chose not to have a roll cage installed, significantly decreasing the weight of this custom Defender 110. The result is apparent when accelerating in Project Camper — a pure “put you back in your seat” feeling. See full vehicle showcase and video for Project Camper here.

Project Savage is ECD’s milestone 150th truck. It’s a beautiful custom Defender 110 from the Ultimate Vehicle Concept division of ECD, a true no-limits build. Project Savage is celebrated as ECD’s most innovative and most powerful vehicle ever built. The heavily upgraded 6.2L LS3 Defender V8 engine was performance-tuned to produce 600-horsepower and runs a 0-60mph time of 5.50 seconds. Performance upgrades include upgraded headers, pistons, radiator, cooling fans, and more. See full vehicle showcase for Project Savage here.

Project Honey Badger is a nimble custom Defender 90 soft-top. It’s powered by a 6.2L LS3 V8 engine with 430-horsepower. Unlike Project Aloha, Honey Badger’s powerful LS3 is paired to a 6-speed manual transmission. Finished in full gloss black with gloss black wheels, Honey Badger is certainly not a vehicle you expect to see come off the line doing 0-60mph in just under six seconds. See full vehicle showcase for Project Honey Badger here.

Project Beast is a unique, special edition vehicle from ECD – a custom wide-body Defender 110. Its exterior is painted in a satin black finish with black wheels. Built for aggressive off-road use, its 6.2L LS3 V8 engine produces plenty of power. While this custom Defender 110 is heavily optioned with luxury features, it is still one of the fastest Defenders built by ECD. See full vehicle showcase for Project Beast here.
