Hennessey doing Porsche mods??

I've heard horror stories about thier customer service on Viper mods, I sure wouldn't consider a Hennessey mod.

I read a story where that character kept some guy's Viper for over a year, sold most of the body pieces, and never reimbursed him or returned the car.

That guy is a friend of mine, he also has a really sweet 993 TT S. Hennessey took me for over 20k, did no work and after two years I walked away with 10k.

I serioulsy doubt that he has done many Porsche Turbos. I have heard that he is also advertising that he does Turbo Gallardos as well. I wonder how many of them he has finished ... my bet is 000

I heard he was living the high life. Collecting upfront fees and never delivering the product. Take from peter to pay paul. Real class act it seems. I hope he crashes and burns!

I heard the same, that guy/company is BAD NEWS. Problem is he/they are constantly featured in Road & Track, Car & Driver etc...

People see this, figure he is in a popular mag and then loose their money. Hopefully, if we continually spread the word he will one day go bankrupt. He has done some awful things to some people...
