The Venom 1000 Coupe comes after very successful convertible version which won Road & Tracks standing mile shootout. Finishing the distance at 25.6 seconds, the Venom 1000 was .3 seconds faster than the Saleen S7 Twin Turbo.

This system includes JE Pistons, Manley Rods and twin Garret Turbos, custom headers & and a unique exhaust system.

Chassis mofications include Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires, a VenomAero front bumper, KW adjustable suspension, 5-point harnesses, Quaiffe differential upgrade and many more available options.

Hennessey says that the Venom 1000 Coupe is the fastest and most powerful limited-edition street car in the world. Only 24 will be built for the 2006 production year. He is now taking orders for 2006 delivery. Infact, you can buy one directly off hennesseyperformance.com/ right now.
