DiMora Delivers First Hennessey Venom GT in the World
Mr. Hareton Akob receives the keys to the first 1200 HP Venom GT supercar from Sir Alfred J. DiMora in Dubai.
Palm Springs, CA, July 16, 2010 --(PR.com)-- The first production LS3 Twin Turbo 1200 HP Hennessey Performance Venom GT was delivered to its new owner in Dubai by Sir Alfred J. DiMora, Founder of DiMora Motorcar, the exclusive distributor for Hennessey supercars in the Middle East and India.
The Venom GT is powered by a Texas-built, twin-turbocharged Hennessey Chevrolet LS-series aluminum V8 engine producing 1200 HP and 1,135 lb-ft of torque, mated to a 6-speed Ricardo manual transaxle. With a dry weight of 2,548 lbs and a curb weight of 2,685 lbs with a full tank of fuel, the car has an astounding power-to-weight ratio of 2.24 lb/hp. It can go from zero to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds. The carbon fiber body has an adjustable rear wing for exceptional high-speed stability. The final assembly is completed at Silverstone, England.
Hennessey Performance is planning very limited production per year of these hand-built, high performance, street-legal machines. Available in both left- and right-hand drive configurations, the Venom GT has three engine options at 725 HP, 1000 HP, and 1200 HP. Prices for the Venom GT begin at $890,000.
DiMora Motorcar is also offering to the serious car collector the only Venom GT X1 Prototype. This flat black GRP (glass reinforced plastic) supercar is configured as right-hand drive and it has a 725 HP Hennessey Chevrolet LS9 supercharged engine. In May 2010 the Prototype Venom GT X1 was featured on the cover of BBC Top Gear magazine.
