Hennessey branching out

Hennessey Performance Engineering is notorious for tuning the Dodge Viper, but little know they have slowly been branching out to other vehicles. Just recently they added the Corvette Models including the ZR1, the Dodge Challenger, Lexus IS-F, and Audi R8 to their tunable models.

Yeah, I was over at their site several months ago day dreaming and noticed they were making packages for lot's of stuff. Hennessey builds great cars, but I am more of a Lingenfelter man myself though.

I've been a fan of Hennessey ever since Torquenstein wrecked his Hennessey Venom 650R in Morocco during the 2004 Gumball. He and Alex Roy are seriously my road rally idols.

oddly enough, I'm not that familiar with Hennessey...

They make super-Vipers. Awesome company.

I'm guessing that they got a request for a custom exhaust from a Veyron owner and since they already have all the details worked out from that, they figured that they might as well throw it in the catalog.

With the slight hope that one of the other billionaires who can afford to spend a Mil and a half on a rocket ship with wheels will use their car enough to warrant aftermarket upgrades.

Beautiful Smile and Love

A long time ago, there was Calgary Escort a huge apple tree. A little boy Calgary Escorts loved to come and play around it every day. He climbed to the tree top, ate Calgary Asian Escort the apples, took a nap Calgary Asian Escorts under the shadow… He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.
