I mean yes in terms of the performance and specs, but unlike the cobra people didn't have to give an arm and a leg to buy one. Which i think is a little sad

Topen Lamp yeah but that's back in the day. If that car was made today it would be way more.

That's just what I was thinking.

Maybe more like a De Tomaso Pantera?

Tough machine but is useless

That's a 427 chevy engine for you. :D

davidsirmons is that the Vipers engine? or does the Hennessey have a v8? haha i havent watched the video in a while

Hennessey venom GT is a V8 427, yep. The 2016 viper has a 8Liter V10, and as far as I know both are still OHV, which is the least efficient tech out there. Dirt simple, tough, reliable, exact, but slowish and unable to hit high revs without risk.

davidsirmons dang, I really do love and have respect for using lesser technology in cars though, nostalgia is a great thing. i really hope there's a long future for such powerful and beautiful engineering

davidsirmons ç

OH MY!!

Because it is

So true

Ian Thompson "reliable"

"They have much different ideals. Such as making the best super car." that's NOT true... Koenigseggs (excluding ONE:ONE) Suck ass on a track, 800+hp Koenigsegg is 20sec slower than a 505hp Z06.

JerseyMikeP Press ”X” to doubt

Koenigsegg ccx engine is a copy of a Ford v8

you can not compare a complete state of the art corporation like konissegg to a performance shop called Hennessey. he clearly said it on the video he didn't mean to reinvent the wheel he just wants fast. this project would of never happen if it wasn't for the customer who actually bought the rights to the first venom. real one vision companies risk all or nothing like huricio pagani not build upon others idea. that's the American way

B00steDevil I don't think you read my comment clearly...

Exoticars19 Most of these anti-american people can't read anyway lmao..

I agree with you. But John Hennessy is arrogant and stupid for comparing his venom to other cars like the Bugatti and and one-77. I agree you have to start somewhere, but just don't be a prick.

+John762/308 America is actually dumb compared to other countries. And given your confederate flag pic, I'm sure you're an airhead yourself.

Nah, John Hennessey has a bad habit of doing that constantly Watch all his interviews and you'll see it immediately

Im not doubting the venom's handling capabilities, but why haven't we seen that then?

Check out matt Farah's video of him canyon carving. The venom is a great handling car, but there are few places where you can explore its limitless power and amazing grip.

True, but it doesn't compare to the way *professional* drivers throw around the 918 and p1. Chris Harris drifts the hell outta the p1. IMO the way a car drifts says a lot about its balance and feel. You can't put that on paper. Anyone can slap 350+mm tires on a light weight car and call it grip.

Not it wouldn't. If it would they would have done it on the nurburgring. Eat million dollar hybrids, lmfao. The 918 found that quite amusing.

Tyler Beggs Between you and Chicken shit, I rather choose voting chicken shit

Tyler Beggs piece of shit can't go 284

Tyler Beggs the venom was the first production car to be One:1. And can actually work on it your self.

The One:1 would probably be beaten by a Venom GT because the One:1 looks to be more of a high downforce, good handling car, more than a top speed car.

A Wild Doggo it is probably more track focussed due to that giant rear wing, however the agera RS is faster

I dunno. Seems pretty original to me. I'm pretty sure its his design.....unless somebody else has already done it. And as far as"all he has done has tune a corvette engine" goes......ahhhhhh ya...... I've never seen a corvette engine like that. If that were the case I may actually lose to a corvette. And if all you have to do is "tune" a corvette engine to be like this.....how come all corvette owners don't do it instead of crying every time they lose on utube?. And he does say he buys a lotus and sends it to england....even matt farah states this. So what????..... The thing is amazing. I ddont think john hennessey is a piece of shit for giving us the greatest super car to ever be allowed on the road..... I think he just had an amazing idea that he put into action. So much hostility on utube. Taker down a knotch.... Shelby Forever!

+ musclecars4evr Well said my friend, most of these fools can't appreciated what he has built here. He also says from behind the seat back is all custom built by them so for all the haters saying its nothing more than a modified lotus you are completely wrong.

He just started production in late 2010 and can only make about 5-8 cars a year. at $1,000,000 bucks each its not your everyday seller.

Uh... you are grossly misinformed buddy, yes it is a Lotus body from the front to behind the seats from that point on it is custom made by Hennessey themselves. I'm not sure what you have against Hennessey and his crew to call them names but he has built an amazing automobile here just admit it.

you

No, but everywhere else, where technology does not stand still, they are doing fine, not living by that rule.

Doc PJ seriously? The venom gt proves there is no replacement for displacement

MrGimmethreesteps How? Please back that statement up with some facts. Everywhere else, engines ae getting smaller, and more powerful. Induction design, cam timing, combustion chamber design and what not, not to mention forced induction. Its about efficiency, and fact is, that the bigger the engine, the less efficient it will be. First and foremost due to parasitic loss. Let's put it like this. A 350 BBC making 1000 C_bhp compared to a 700 tall deck BB making 2000 hp, where both engines are "identical" in the sense that they are using the same boost, idle vacuum, manifold pressure, induction velocity and so forth, so that they are equal, the 700 is just scaled up, so to speak. If you want that to put out 2000 C_bhp, you will need an engine that is built to be "way more powerful" in its build, if you understand what I'm saying. I don't mind big V8's, they have their place. I love the 565's I have in my boat, but there are other ways of doing things. Why do you think Ilmor Marines MV-8 570 hp 454 cid. makes more power than Mercury Racing's 532 cid. 565 hp engine, over the entire rev range, and burn approx 10 GPH less? There's a reason why Volvo Penta has discontinued all their BBC based engines, and are now using LS platforms. They produce more power and are more fuel efficient. If you really want to see what can be done when it comes to torque, look at these high performance engines used in the go-fast powerboat market. Sure there's a ton of 632's around, but more and more now swear by 523, 540, 557, 565 and 598's. These machines need both torque and power, but the builders can make better power with the "smaller" engines. LS platforms with VVT and direct injection are the next thing. Besides, the most powerful serial produced boat engine currently made for a go-fast application, is the Merc 1650. Guess what? It's a 557 DOHC engine, and even in its 1100 hp incarnation, it is EU legal when it comes to emissions. The Venom is not legal in several states, and not eligible for sale in the EU or GB. Not even sure it can be driven in most developed Asian countries. But alas, the biggest problem with the Venom is, that you'll have to buy the car from the biggest fraud in the high performance industry. Who knows, they might just supply you with a stock LSA or LS7 with a manifold and turbos bolted on. You know, like all the instances where John Hennessey supposedly sold punched out stroker engines in the 650R Vipers, and people only got a cam and an ECU with all stock internals etc. Not to mention when he parted out new customer cars and put worn parts back on. Are you sure that you want to fork out one mill, of your money to that guy, and then have to rely on his "service" and "know-how" as well? I wouldn't give the deadbeat water if he was on fire. Before you state that this is just hear-say, you should do a little research on Mr. Hennessey. I know more than one person personally, who has gotten taken by that creep.

Doc PJ because the venom gt has a 7 liter v8 and it is the fastest production or tuned car (whatever you want to call it) and it does not have some small engine from a gtr or a supra.

Doc PJ E everywhere else? Like where? I assume you are one of those people that think simpy because the Venom is simple, Means its not technologically advanced? Same with a Viper and Corvette, Am i wrong?..

it weights 2800 pounds, has active aero and a suspension designed to handle 270+mph worth of downforce, which pushes the car an inch lower...I think it's safe to say that the thing can handle corners just fine.

aiG, that's not true. This car presents a factor of overpower that is NOT amenable to racing. If this type of HP was needed, it would be in cars from the mfg already. We have to keep an idea of the technical in mind here. This company builds NOVELTY horsepower cars that will, possibly, do straight-line mile speeds better than many, but the DO NOT build track-racing steeds, nor do they build cars with the finesse to run race courses well. It is fascinating, but overdone for racing. Not that that's a farce on their part, but we have already reached the limits of tires with far, far less power and much more technique.

I think your full of shit

The Koenigsegg vehicles are all wonderful handling machines, I'm certain that this is pretty damn good in the corners as well. It obviously isn't a fucking Kenigsegg or a P1, but you have to give it credit for what it does have- A fucking twin turbo V8 with 1200hp+ and an insane top speed.

Would be better than a Bug

Its still basically a lotus so it should still handle like a crack addict housefly

Cykoid Probably yes, but that frame was designed for 300hp, not 1200, so that's why I'm not saying that is no good, but I'd like to see it on a track.

I dont know why you think it has a lotus body or frame, everything is completely new, do you think they would leave the frame from a Lotus? They made a new car, and because of the first designs made it still look like a Lotus, John said it several times, the only thing that is from Lotus are the doors and A/C. Everything else is made new, and from carbon fibre, and you cant just swap it with something from Lotus. The suspension, frame and everything is made by them. I would also like to see how it handles on the track, 1244 kg is a really amazing weight compared to the huge engine and power. I hope someone gets it and puts it on the track.

Rapp Scallion the frame was designed by Hennessy not lotus just the base suspension geometry and cab area are from lotus nothing else. and Hennessy knows how to handle massive power in a chassis

86gtforme The aerodynamics and frame were designed with the help of the Delta Motorsport firm in the UK, and the Venom GT is built upon a donor Lotus Elise/Exige with modifications being done by another external company in the UK. It also states this on their 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 headlights.

Dude chill this is a fun project for him no one is having a pissing match

+Sharia Pepe it is awd v rwd, what do you expect dumby?

iitbftw no they wont. If they would they would have proved it by now lol. Also new one has 1500hp

Yup....doesn't have the million dollar price tag either....

It's the same car.

The rs211 which was before the 'ronin exige' is a street tuner.

The ronin exige also broke down a lot and is heavily complex. Twin fuel turbo engine (methanol + regular gas) that is maxed out in terms of usable, safe boost (hence the alcohol) that shreds through transmission boxes like lunch.

Haiskoahanta Got a link?

nope

+B&G-gaming I'm a patient person, but goddamn, its been a year and still no link. He probably made that shit up or something. :-)

Hennessey was never in the race. It's not a production car, it didn't prove its speed in both directions, Hennessey don't make cars they tune them. Anyone with with a street legal 8 second drag car has as much claim to being officially faster which is no claim. There are 1000s of cars faster than a Venom but no production car officially faster than a Chiron

@@thybigballs Now you have seen it right??😉

+Jonathan Ilg because the pure power

Because a airbag won't save you at 200mph

I don't think you realize we in America do things because whe can not because it's necessary.

+rocketbunny1314 true

Why buy this car without airbags? Are you serious? The Europeans or Japanese can't build this. Not enough technology. Not enough reliability. Not enough engineering. 1.5 milion and its yours.

You are the smart one. You have finally arrived. Please do not leave.

Mitchell Steindler Hmm, not sure if you're being honest or if I detect sarcasm. :D Anyways.....Hello!

Kaltwasser45 I tried really hard to not sound sarcastic. I genuinely agree with you. People don't seem to understand that this guy basically builds everything out of a glorified garage.

anyone who hates on him calling him a tuner or whatever is just jealous because he made something better then whatever they like.

Zero Cool and are most likely European

Just wait for the venom f5 then

aiGeis Is that a concept? or?

bobkin611 Due out next year. Has been a concept for a long time, currently is in production.

aiGeis And it will be a piece of crap that nobody wants, just like this one

aiGeis And I doubt he will actually ever build it, he's so in deep with fucking people over that his business is doomed

a race between all 3 would be interesting

Yes, most powerful drag race ever.

This car not going to last ... the kings are coming back the one and bugatti so mr venom have fun ...... while it last

Super Veyron, Agera one:1 etc... yeah they're coming back.

Seth...you do know that hennessey is creating a new venom gt correct, the venom gt2 which will have at least 300 more hp then the original

+Freddie B That is because Venom GT is a modified US spec Lotus Exige nothing more. The mention of F1, Zonda and Bugatti with their respective engine from manufacturer means both BMW, Mercedes and VW have their expertise at building the engine. The BMW V12 is exclusively for McLaren F1, AMG V12 engine was specifically made for Pagani and the Quad TurboW16 engine is exclusively for Bugatti (being part of VAG). From your own logic then, Ferrari is just a Fiat.

You said it yourself, What expertise does Zonda and the likes have a building an engine? Obviously they don't. You can say what you want about the car but the number and testimonials speaks volumes.

Freddie B Number does not tell that Venom GT is just a modifed Lotus Exige i.e. basically a kit car.Total made is 11 because the company Delta Motorsports stopped the whole Venom GT according to a local living near the factory. When you mentioned the case of Veyron engine, Bugatti SAS is a division of VAG. Both Pagani and McLaren made the body unlike Hennessey.

I would love to be one of those 11 owners. To be one of 11 makes it even better.

+Tippotipo they make the engine and the the rear 70% of the car lol and they remade the front in solid carbon there is no part in the same place why do euro cry babies bitch every time we beat them not even the width and length match nor suspension ???? what did he copy a basic look god half the italian super cars are based on one another

Yes, especially those 'Inside Koenigsegg' videos by /DRIVE

The one:1 is faster than than the venom gt

+Lijpeturk Please seek rehab immediately. The K1 is NOT faster or quicker. it is inferior in every way.

+Paul Bachman you've got to be kidding me...

+Paul Bachman butthurt American

What they don't know is only the doors and cockpit of the Lotus is used, what they mean by "put a V10 into a Lotus" is they built a tube frame around the *general DESIGN* of the lotus, and not actually bolted it onto a complete frame. *If that engine were to be "strapped to a stretched lotus", it would be bent in half!

Bugatti is french,not italian.

raduchiorean2020 Well, now it's basically German.

It's registered as a Modified Lotus. Nothing you say will ever change that

cybertree That is what racing company do when they customize an existing production car. Still does not make a new car as long the original VIN remains. Fact is it still is a Lotus Exige regardless the modification, not Hennessey Venom GT, otherwise it would be illegal on street. I have plenty customized car getting impounded due to the fact the owner tried to alter the VIN.

***** every mom and pop garage warranties their work. Once certain work is done to the car your warranty is voided whether Hennessey did it or the corner garage, read the fine print. 8 cars a week lol that's normal for any performance shop. The local drug dealer has had loyal customers for a decade or two and they still keep coming back think they would of learned. Research the mans business practices and shady character history.

***** of course every shop warranties THEIR WORK just like Hennessey, they did the work. Hennessey voids factory warranty just like everyone else. Hennessey was involved in murder investigations associated in drug deals among other things. Took peoples money and left their cars in pieces under tarps in the backyard. Like I said do your research and find out about the man your backing

They don't like the fact that it's an American car with the number one spot for worlds fastest.

+WOLFMAN305 or that it's a beefed up lotus :/

Xerro No Vatimo or that it's still a stick shift 🤣

MiracleChild509 not the fastest

Because then John Hennessey would not be able to rip people off like he's been doing for years, charging insane prices to make a huge profit. Besides, he does not have the facility nor the skills.

Doc PJ I guess it's all subjective in the end, the car is without doubt a road going missile. Personally if I was going to drop $1.2 million on a car I wouldn't want it to look like a $50,000 Lotus Elise that's been tuned (all be insanely) and more like a bespoke masterpiece such as a Pagani Huayra or other such Hyper car. Like I say it's subjective, for some speed is everything, for others it's the whole design, the tiny details that you just don't get on other cars.

Did you miss the part where he said they designed and built the chassis? And the part where the back doesn't resemble the lotus in any way? Ill give in that its ugly as balls in pretty much every way but it's pretty much as bad ass as it gets.

Mitchell Steindler Oh I fully acknowledge it's bad-assery and I totally respect the engineering that went into creating it. It's simply a personal & totally subjective view of mine own. Personally I'd save myself over a million and go for a new C06 lol

Loki Jotunn C06 or Z06? I think for a million bucks you get the zo6 or viper or something similar, and then have someone manufacture carbon fiber body panels. I've always thought that would be pretty sick. You get a super light car with massive power, but you still own something relatively humble and respectable.

Let's compare the Carrera gt to the 911 GT1. GT1 all day long wins hands down

yup it wont burst into flames during a 40 Mph crash

DoarStudent Correct. Let’s not, because this will blow the Carerra GT right out of the fucking water.

It is very far from a lotus it shares the headlights and maybe the door panels

it shares more than just that....

Xerro No Vatimo what else then?

Xerro No Vatimo The only thing that isn't heavily modified are the headlights and door panels everything else is custom made for the car

Kit car

deeper sound

Anyone can dump more fuel into a cylinder to make more horsepower. The hp/l argument is for noobs that don't know what the hell they're talking about or people that live in countries where tiny engines are practically mandated. The Venom doesn't have a need to only be 5 liters.Thank god for that! The engine has fantastic power density and torque. The two engines are different animals, but you're probably too ignorant of power plants to figure this out. Tell the truth: You live in a country where 90% of the population drives tiny shit boxes with 1.5L to 2.0L engines, huh? Have you even driven a car with five liters of displacement?

cause its from fucking texas

thybigballs "The hp/l argument is for noobs that don't know what the hell they're talking about or people that live in countries where tiny engines are practically mandated" so you'd rather drive an 8 litre 600hp viper than a 3.8 litre 1800hp alpha 16 gtr "The Venom doesn't have a need to only be 5 liters" so by almost doubling the weight of the lotus with the engine is going to have no effect what so ever on the overall performance? you could make the same power to weight ratio with only a fraction of the power with modding the original lotus engine for a lot cheaper too "The two engines are different animals, but you're probably too ignorant of power plants to figure this out."...... v8 twin turbo vs v8 twin turbo........ yah ENORMOUS difference..... its like comparing a lemming to sputnik "Have you even driven a car with five liters of displacement?" no but i don't need to drive one since my 25 year old 2.6 litre 1989 R32 GT-R can smoke pretty much anything in real world conditions id love to see something like a viper or corvette TRY and keep up through the hills.

Why 7 liters? Why not? It's a strengthened and twin turbocharged Corvette motor with lots of extra goodies.

How about you buy your own and you could do whatever you want with it. Sound fair?

LOL it's not built from a 458 if thats what you're talking about.

Skoorb Brooks I wasn't talking about the Venom, I was talking about the 458 that he put two turbos on and ruined

Jackisaboss1208 Haha, "ruined" As if you drove it already.

Jackisaboss1208 Probably destroyed the resale value

I heard BHPproject took their one1 and changed the turbos to get 1450hp.

+steeler1168 nice

+steeler1168 So fucking stupid, those turbos are engineered for that engine, why not just up the boost instead of taking that incredibly valuble piece of engineering and shit on it.

+Jack O'Neill Did someone rustle your jimmes? There's no need to be upset. Ask Shmee since he stated the information. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n7-KjLNymbTTlas.html

+bush did 7/11 It would sit in his shop under a tarp with no engine after he took your money and your engine. John Hennessey is a crook.

all of those cars are 400,000k more, and all where announced a more then a year after this.

***** Do you even know what Hennessey is? "A tuned kit car from some micro company"? Get outta here man

When you buy a Pagani Zonda, Huayra or a Koenigsegg you're not buying just power. You're buying on the best pieces of engineering and design that a kit-car made can't reach. This is like buying the Mac Pro against some custom made fluorecent PC.

Kieran Wright come on, just looks how the car vibrates so much that even the camera can't focus. You can be in a Pagani Zonda and the vibration starts on higher speeds.

you clearly didn't listen to the review. The car is refined. It is also remarkably well built and as stable as a veyron. Pagani also vibrates like a washing machine.

Cody Grimm your comment is immature! And there are better options out! Not necessary faster in a straight line - but definitely just better! Starting with the Veyron, going over to the triplets (from another mother :) ] of hybrid hypercars, to Pagani's etc. And I really value Hennessey's motivation to do this car - however the price tag just doesn't make sense! It just isn't a Koenigsegg, where every single part is made off amazing substances in house, This car could cost about 300 or 400 grands and I wouldn't say anything. Maybe 500 or 600 - given its power. But above 1 million? You have to be retarded [or you have everything already] to buy it!

if you would listen, everything from the doors back is completely new new and custom built... Including the chassis. it would be complete absurdity to use the stock chassis for 5 times horsepower, and that's why John Hennessy did not

jaybelle532 Well - you weisenheimer, this is pretty much what I said! But there was definitely a reasonable part, which was Lotus. And here is the problem - the Elise is just too cheap, to be only even the face of a plus 1M car. So I didn't said, that you are paying 1M for a Elise, neither did I said, that it is a bad car... but no, you are not right - it is not completely new... otherwise it wouldn't look like that, and it wouldn't use ANY Lotus parts!

+Dominik MJ (opinionated alchemist) Does the F1 have a Mercedes engine or a BMW? The engine is the heart and soul of a car. If you don't believe me just ask any Ferrari owner.

Freddie B First: who is talking about the McLaren F1? Even though.. yes, the McLaren F1 engine is a custom made BMW engine. If it comes to the venom (I guess you meant this car), it is a GM tuned and customised GM engine. And I agree to a certain extend, that the engine is the heart of a car [I don't agree, that you should ask a Ferrari owner... what is the specific pedigree of these people? Most of them have just enough money and are not even petrol heads - much less anyway, than people who own other exotic brands]. But a car is certainly more than the sum of its parts and more than its engine. A great engine [again, it is not that a AMG or BMW engine are any worse... just ask Pagani, Wiesmann, Morgan, Ascari, Aston Martin...). So what do you want to say with your comment?

Alex Douglas If i was given the choice to get either a Venom or a Veyron, i would choose the Venom all the way

***** to all there is a gtr alpha omega makeing ~1300 bhp at cost og 250k$ just saying

ggah97 You can make a 2000hp any car for less than $100k. A lot more than just power.

***** its all about refinement

ggah97 you can buy a ford mustang (or anything else in that price range) and put a 2,000 hp TT V8 motor in it, change the suspension, tires, trans, etc for around $100,000. if you want a fast car, you don't need $2.5 million. that's why Veyron fans are idiots

Glad to know that somebody even knows of 9ff's existence.

This car does it in 10.1

Phendranaguardian thanks you to

It would be a lot closer than you might think and this is coming from a koenigsegg fan

Nate Brubaker this car is cool bc it's a ccx but cheaper or the same price and faster I love the manual gearbox and the massive 7.0 grunt w twin turbo spools. koenigseggs are very cool, and produce similar noises but I kind of like the venom as kind of a cool car not too many ppl other than car enthusiast know about for being not as hyped. Christian is still cooler than John though. I heard rumors about John and I do not know whether or not they're true.

Hennessy is a fucking joke.

Koenigsseg engine is a modified Ford engine.

Koenigsseg engine is a modified Ford engine.

+Aluisio Fernandes da Silva Junior Only the old CCs, the rest aren't.

The Koegnigsegg is actually a supercar. The venom gt is kit car. It's actually registered as a modified lotus.

+dan McClaren ik this

+Marky Force Not on the track or on the straight but its your opinion.

Timmy Turner you're drunk

Marky Force Compare this to the Agera R, the Venom's acceleration, top speed, braking and handling has way more potential than that Agera, plus its 500 lbs heavier (Agera). I take the car serious and it gets my respect but it's not beating a Venom. Don't be butthurt buddy.

he mods the turbo 5.5 liter engines...

Σωτήρης Σύρμας Actually it is based on lotus, so you're right.

That's cause it's made out of a lotus.

Garrett Bradley isn't this one the one Steven Tyler received?

JD Fender It is very likely, they said it was a celebrities and Steven Tyler has a black one.

+Σωτήρης Σύρμας oh really i did not know that

Cause he already sold all of them (i believe).... Thats why. Those that bought the Venom GT also own or have owned Veyrons as well. Its not like you would buy it at 200k so quit your bitchin.

the only reason he sold them is cause of its top speed and he only made a few of them

And he is still making them cause their is a market. He is making 29.

jake smith And people buy it.

a fuckin veyron is 700k more than this o.o

***** Wrong entirely. Do the research. The reason why the most recent record wasn't recognised at first was because they had built 16 cars not 30. All, and I mean all of the previous records it's held are in the production car catagory. You people can't seem to grasp that the shell is designed by lotus FOR Hennessey, this car is not a lotus, it's almost like you think all supercars have their own engines, they're always borrowed, the Zonda has a BMW engine for example. This car is a landmark, final.

the Hennessey does 0-300 kph in 13-something seconds, the one:1 in 12,9 seconds. Whereas Hennessey takes the engine, gearbox and basic structure from other cars, Koenigsegg build every single thing themselves, innovating existing concepts along the way. Koenigsegg hasn't had the opportunity yet to test top speed, and to them this is not a big priority. Moreso are the build quality, circuit performance and configuring the car in the exact way the customer wants. Koenigsegg's attention to detail goes way beyond that of any other car manufacturer.

+SixCommunists Speaking of doing research, the zonda has an AMG engine, not a BMW

could not have said it any better .. bet some of these guys wouldn't even know audi r8 and gallardo lambo have the same wheelbase

+Menno Minderhout You are right, and one reason Koenigsegg hasn't tested top speeds is because bugatti won't let them use their track.
