2011 Hennessey Venom GT Supercar
It makes us wonder if it was ever going to be happen for John Hennessey after he announced his plans to build his own super-car, under his tuning name - Hennessey, two-years ago. The American based Texas car tuner managed to make their first official public debut for the Venom GT at the Geneva Motor Show two-months back.
The Venom GT based upon the Lotus Elise and combines with the mixture of High-Tech-Supercar, lightweight British chassis - Lotus Elise, and a powerful American power-plant - the V8 engine. Hennessey has made a few changes on the specification with what he has stated before. The curb weight were reduced from 2700lbs to 2400lbs and it is now using a new power-plant, a V8 engine called the "Hennessey V8" rather than the twin-turbocharged Viper V10 engine. The power rating increased from 1000hp to 1200hp. The Venom GT will be able to make the sprint to 60 mph in just 2.4 seconds and a listed top speed of 272mph.

Hennessey plans to make just 10 examples of the Venom GT per year, with pricing expected to match that exclusivity. Look for the 725 horsepower version of the Venom GT to list from about $600,000, with turbo variants carrying a hefty premium.
