It may not have the sophistication of a Bugatti Veyron, but for what it lacks sophistication it makes it up for it in sheer power. The Hennessey Venom GT is an amalgamation of American and British automotive ingenuity that joins a modified Lotus chassis with eight cylinders of American-bred muscle. Now here’s where it gets really interesting, the car will be available in three versions: a 725 hp “base” model and either a 1,000 or 1,200 hp twin-turbo V8. Yes, 1-2-0-0 horsepower. Link

You missed the worst part about the car. It is all of those tihngs and .rear wheel drive. The Veyron has tons of weight pushing it into the ground and AWD to grip the road when it launches so it does 0-60 in 2.8 seconds I think. This has no weight, half the tires for grip and too much power. It’s less of a car and more of a tire disintegrator . Plus, for anyone wondering what the markup is on these cars Mr. Hennessey (known to be the most crooked tuner out there, google it) is making, here’s a rough estimate of costs:$40000 for a Lotus Exige, 30K for an LS9 crate motor, and we’ll lump all the other work and parts (like exhaust, transmission, turbo setup, custom chassis work) at 100-130K. So $200,000 is what goes into this car that doesn’t work. So the profit made is about 400% of the cost of the car. Now you get how much of a crook Hennessey is.
