What do you think of the spec?!!

Love the spec👌😀

Perfection

I've been waiting on a youtuber to get a venom or the f5. The team there is unreal

[@Sharpshooter111]

I think it’s cause they were (and still are) mostly a modding company, the prestigeness of other hypercar companies isn’t there which is a good thing

[@evanpetersen4016]

That was fun. I respect the spec man's opinions.

[@pauliboo22]

Apart from the Rimac factory tour, that was one of the most welcoming and open videos I’ve seen. Really small handcrafted cars - similar to the shack that Aerial work from

[@MrWobbles88]

That dollar store configuration they have is too funny compared to other car manufacturers

There’s a lot and also not much going on if that makes sense 😂.

[@LS1PWER]

Exactly what I was thinking.

[@Cloxxki]

Like a one room apartment, but it's used for swimsuit model shoots. A warehouse, but it cranks out bespoke look hypercars.

[@TheCorrectionist1984]

I don't understand, where is the car built?

[@polarbear_4.045]

“We’re not gonna nickel and dime someone when they are already spending $3m on a car” what an absolute down to earth, honest, and respectful way to go about building a car brand! That’s what sets Hennessy apart from every other HyperCar company!

[@marklynch1305]

All the “free” options are figured into the price lol

[@basberend]

your calling Hennessy a hypercar company ??? come on. your joking right. the car can only drive is some states of amerika with a Kit car licence is not a hypercar for anymeans. if you see what you get and have to pay that much money for it.... way to many zero's

[@ericjorgensens]

It’s because they’re borderline scamming their customers so it’s another way of saying their profit margins are a little higher than they should be 😅

[@papa_pt]

Sheesh man. Do a bit o reading before falling for it. Yes, you especially can't nickel and dime when the only shit you build is the motor and your profit margin has (I'm guessing) gotta be at least $1M per car This is an LS7 based motor with huge twin turbos slapped on. People run builds like that all the time in Texas, Mexico, etc.

[@MSA_CS40]

Lmao reading this comment is making me cringe. Go do some research buddy. 3 million dollar kit car built in a shed using a 90s configuration 🤣🤦🏻‍♂️💀

[@OutlawKeith]

I REALLY hope you guys get chassis #69. 😂 And I’m hoping for a “That’s what she said” hidden or maybe not-so-hidden somewhere in the build. 😂 😂 You guys are awesome!!

[@sclems4]

I liked this comment then realized I was the 70th like,….so I had to unlike it just for Steve and hope he does get chassis 69.

@@captain_context9991 all of koenigsegg's body components and chassis i believe also come from spain and not sweden?

⁠​⁠​⁠@@captain_context9991Americans have built several super cars such as the ford Gt, c7 zr1, dodge viper acr and you will obviously disagree with me and say “they aren’t actually super cars” but they are. And even though this car was at least partly produced by delta Motorsport in silverstone it’s no reason to look like an ass by replying to everyone who is excited about the car and saying something along the lines of “this is a kit car and the stupid Americans only put the car together”

This channel has grown so much since I started to watch it. I have to say that compared to other automotive youtubers it is such a pleasure to experience these moments, not just only because I will never be able to buy anything like that, but also finally it is not another "Lambo widebody delivery" or a new wrap reveal. Thank you Team!

Steve, you’re a lucky guy. Didn’t think they would have a box big enough to fit your huge 1 piece coque!

[@praveenrajendran5232]

nice spec. dark olive green with yellow seat inserts and yellow pinstripes would be my favourite choice.

[@claycrawford9009]

Kinda crazy this is Koenigsegg money and not near the engineering that goes into developing them. Yes they’re crazy fast and insane horse power figures…Really shows how Koenigsegg is in a league of their own.

[@kidwave1]

I agree Koenigsegg is Top of the Heap. Although I do not like Bugattis AT ALL, I would put them #2, a good bit behind Koenigsegg. I know Bugatti seems to think they have to incorporate their "signature grill" into every edition, but I just can't get past how terrible it looks. I really wish they wood attempt something new and or unique with their grill/front end. There is no law forcing them to continue using that "styling cue".

[@BeyondResolution]

Funny to compare the facility there and faftory to Koenigsegg... :P

[@jcaraballo93]

As cool as the car as you think the configurator would be a little bit more advanced it was kind of lackluster for me compared to the other ones you guys did. All and all dope car. 🎉

For a 3 million dollar hypercar you would think the factory and renderings would be of a higher standard but hey each to their own.

[@Vartazian360]

I was thinking the same dude lol. They are using some 2015 ray tracing tech without a denoiser and it looks terrible. They could just use unreal engine or something and make that look 10x better, and run butter smooth.
