I would love to have that done to a wagon.

503C43 ////AMG

1066HP while smoking the tires on the dyno

I would love to see it run a Veyron

Hennessy is great. They're speed demons. But my God, what an ugly car!

black06c230

agreed, the front looks like the old Ground Designs Black Widow kit for the Civic/Integra and every other import back like 10 years ago.

A regular CTS Coupe has the proportions of a pig...this beefed up one looks like a fat boar

Might be ugly but if it pulled up to us at a light we would never get a chance to make fun of his front end haha.

bnzuovr

That would be a brutal race but for some reason i could see the CTS coming out with the win in a straight line.

Prius on steroid

To bad horsepower can't fix ugly. Now the sedans are much better looking.

GT-ER

I would kill people to have one of those coupes, minus the hood and the rear wing which I hate...don't love the wheels either...lol

I think it is hot actually....

Let's just say that I would never send them a penny, let alone work on my cars. Maybe they've cleaned up their act, but leopards don't change their spots. Back when Hennesay was modifiying Vipers, he allegedly ripped off multiple customers:

That doesn't mean much to me tbh especially with this car. The less angles, the better. That's like the Elephant Man winning a gold in sprinting. So what if he just outran me, he still looks like the Elephant Man. He has to be good at something, right?

I think I know what your intent of the post is...but there are PLENTY and PLENTY of modded cars that can beat a "stock production car (Veyron)" so I don't really see the point of it.

Very nice, keep the rest of car, give me the drivetrain.

HeissRod

A CTS-V wagon will be my next car

It looks......chunky?

Agreed that Hennessey used to be a crook, from all the stories I've heard. I haven't heard that about any recent customers, but I still wouldn't give him my car. I might buy parts from him to install myself.....

Seriously, there's 8 second VW's/Civics out there. Clearly, they would also keep up and beat a Bugatti Veyron. That doesn't make it good at all. What I'd like to see is a race between this Caddy and a Bugatti from 0-250. That's where the Bugatti shines, it's not built to drag like the Cadillac is.

Looks like Hennessey will pretty much make any car 1200 hp or some variation.But out on the track it really comes down to the driver's ability.
I can't tell you the number of guys who put their 911's and
GTR's into the walls at Road Atlanta because they don't understand speed and handling and apex turning and breaking. Sounds impressive to say you have a 1200 hp car I guess, but I've seen pro drivers out at Road Atlanta in a Saturn beat up on some pretty tricked out cars. !!
Hennessey does have a monster with his Venom car. The Shelby SSC car is off the charts as well. But speed has to be balanced with the car.
Read up on the new Pagani 760RS and see what steps Horacio Pagani took along with the folks at AMG to ensure the car would respond and handle to his strict requirements. Pretty impressive stuff.
Lots of fast cars to choose from that is for sure....

Get you one! I recently bought a 2011 sedan. I spent $100 for a pulley, $200 for a cold air intake and put a $400 box tune on it. Immediately took it to the 1/8 mile local dragstrip and ran a 7.5 at nearly 97 mph.
I really, really like this car and love how durable and inexpensive it is to operate.

Henessey is a THEIF and does low quality work. Search the boards/google it/search Texas lawsuit records.

AKnight55

That thing is hideous.. The wagon would have been a different story though

FraKctured

+1 Looks like a Frankenstein--bunch of pieces from 5 other cars stolen from the morgue and sewn (welded) together.

But wow--that is some serious power. Hennessy crew are real maniacs!

BenzoBoi

for the power

for the looks
