The Hennessey Venom GT is the fastest 2-seat sports car known to man. What's the point of 250MPH?  Because they can and it's in the male genetic code to do so.

Most people right off the bat ask themselves the same question, "Why?" JFK sums it up best in the beginning of this video with his space race speech. 'Because we can' pretty much sums it up.  The car has been certified at a top speed of 270.49 MPH.

  • 0-60 in 2.7 seconds
  • 0-100 in 5.6 seconds
  • 0-200 in 14.5 seconds
  • Standing Half Mile at 206 MPH
  • Standing Mile at 240 MPH
  • Redlines at 7200 RPM
  • 90 Degree V8 - Overhead Valves - 2 Valves per Cylinder
  • And much more...

Even if you can afford this car, where would you drive it and get it out of 1st or 2nd gear? OK, if I won the lottery I'd get one just because the The Hennessey Venom GT is that awesome!
