Equipment
1,000-hp engine with Paxton supercharger, HRE wheels, StopTech brakes, lowered suspension.
Condition
The first Hennessy Venom 600 built. Represented as the fastest car Motor Trend ever tested at the time. Driven less than 7,000 miles, and most of those were surely terrifying. Looks practically new aside from age to the side curtains.
Market commentary
If you bought a normal production early RT/10 was scary, imagine one with 1,000 horsepower. Much of the attention at Bonhams was on the ex-Iacocca RT/10 parked next to this Hennessey, but it still brought a reasonably strong result, all things considered. This is about what a stock RT/10 with this mileage would ordinarily sell for, all the performance upgrades are free.
