Car looks great in silver. Certainly a dream car.

 

This is what lotus probably wanted to do originally but they were a little strapped for cash...have you seen their new designs.... there is going to be a hell of a selection in 2019 for supercars....new zonda...new lambo...three new lotus's....SSC Ultimate Aero II, new veyron...sls amg....ferrari 458, 599 gto...599 cab...jesus will it end!!...or can someone just buy me one for christmas?

 

I can't believe they actually got away with that design, it's such a clear ripoff.

 

Dude, have you even seen your signature? Pop a couple of Ambien, then walk out to your garage...

 

No kidding!!

For those us without garages like that....I do think it looks pretty awesome despite the Lotus resemblance. Looking like a Lotus isn't necessarily a bad thing...

 

I hope Hennessey shuts up the critics with this car.

I've been saying it since day one, there's something wrong about that car. Since it spent all of it's "developmental" time in Britain.

 

We clearly state the origins of our car on our website:

Note: The Hennessey Venom GT design is based on the Lotus Elise / Exige. The Venom GT is created from a base Lotus Elise / Exige and utilizes components including but not limited to the roof, doors, side glass, windscreen, dash, cockpit, floorpan, HVAC system, wiper and head lamps. Hennessey Performance and the Venom GT are not associated with Lotus Cars.

This is a car that must be seen (heard) in person to be fully appreciated. I hope you will get a chance to see it in live or in action at some point in the future. Thanks for the kind words.

 

can this thing really do >260mph?

 

Wish it had a more noble engine in there, but I dig it.

 

Excellent job on the design.
Looks MUCH better than I thought it would when I heard "stretched Lotus"
