I think it has, and I can't remember if it was on YouTube or on here that people were bashing Hennessy. I was wondering why? I'm not a fan, in fact I don't know shit about them really but I was curious why they were getting a lot of hate.

I've read A LOT of instances of people rightfully pissed off at the owner, John Hennessey, & his poor business practices, not against his cars. Google "people unhappy with John Hennessey" and you will get page after page of both angry ripped off customers and ex-employees.

From Jalopnik last year, "The ex-employees’ corroborating accusations included misusing company funds, using one customer’s deposit to build another one’s car, passing off subpar parts and components as exclusive and top-of-the-line equipment, using underhanded tactics designed to prevent clients from getting refunds, and consistently failing to deliver certain customers’ cars—especially when they were foreign buyers."

You better know exactly what they cost ahead of time but this is good marketing.

I'd much rather have Ron over at Vengeance do this up for me...

I'd take a Vengeance car over the Demon, but the Demon over the Hennessy marketing all day.

This entire video is awesome, but the magic starts at 5:44...

How many of you have drove a car with over 750 rwh? My Fox body Mustang has 976 at tires and is a true street car. I will tell you that much power on the street in almost useless haha.

What do you do with all that power? Does it take some of the fun out of going to the track if you're damn near unbeatable every run?

And again, this shit was like 15 yrs ago. Time to let it go. He'll forever never live this one down tho. haha. But, I doubt he cares. Living in his 8000 sq ft mansion and all. He gets the last laugh. And always will.

I still think the Demon would destroy the Exorcist on a drag strip, the lack of horsepower wont mean squat when the Camaro cant hook up. The Demon is set up to drag in every way, correct suspension, cooling ect. But with only 3000 being made, I doubt we ever see them on the road/strip, they will sit in collectors garages and car shows.

Here's where I'm at with it there's always someone faster so you got a hellcat there's 9 second Eco boost mustang's. You got a demon well there is already 9 second ZL1'S and so on. Basically after bragging rights of being FACTORY STOCK fast that's where it ends. You just got beat by a modded 5.0 in your hellcat your wife's in the car like l thought you said that these were fast lol. Good time's
