The Venom GT produces 1,200bhp @ 6,500 rpm and at a weight of only 2,685 pounds curb weight the car will propel 0-to-60 in 2.5-seconds. From 0-to-200, the GT pulls out a 15.9 second run, that will demolish the Bugatti Veyron by almost 9 seconds.

Re-read that a few times. Holy shit.

Just read an article on this car in Motor Trend. The car is based on a slightly stretched Lotus Elise chassis. The car hauls ass but like EVERYTHING that is made by Hennessey it is total junk! Every one of his cars in road tests have broken/fallen apart or just caught fire! His company has screwed many people out of parts and work done to their cars.
