You should look into all the customer Hennessey screwed over in the past. I'm not sure how he runs his shop anymore, but I'd still never take any car to them. And their "packages" are incredibly overpriced in my opinion.

Like I said earlier, I don't really know anything about Hennessy but I do know that thing gets down the track.

Ok, so I went and read some stuff about John Hennessy's business practices... sounds like a douche.

But that thing still hauls ass.

You can haul more ass for less $. Just say no to Hennessy
Hennessy's target market is someone who wants a modern turn key hot rod version of their favorite GM vehicle. Sure you could do it for less if you piece it together and engineer it yourself, but that isn't his customer.

So I looked up the price for this car, about $120k.
That doesnt sound too bad for a new 1000hp car with 3 year warranty I think?
