Company founder, John Hennessey, is careful to point out that the Venom GT is not being built as a ‘Veyron Slayer’. Hennessey point out, saying, ‘The Veyron is an ultra fast and ultra luxurious grand touring car which also happens to be quicker and faster than any other road car, except for our Venom 1000 Twin Turbo SRT which beat the Veyron earlier this year from 0-200 mph. The Venom GT will be a much more engaging sports car to drive by challenging the driver with 1000+ HP in a chassis that is nearly 1500 lbs lighter than the Veyron.’
Hennessey said, ‘The company already has existing Venom 1000 Twin Turbo clients interested in ordering the lighter, mid-engined Venom GT. “Right now are taking a serious look at building 2 concept cars that could be shown to the public sometime in 2009. If there is enough demand we may consider doing a very limited production run of the Venom GT.’
