That might be a bit difficult. The vehicle is in Houston. @lGNAl isn't.

Yes. And imagine me asking them to put a can of beans on it. lol .. But I will ask them to send me photos on dyno and body shop like I said before.

Unless you guys want me to copy/paste some emails on here I don't mind.
 
That looks amazing, I wonder how did you ship it from US all the way to where you live?

Enjoy your new ride 👍
 
Wow. only took them 6 months to ship it! Now how much did this Caddy cost ya? I really like the rear end constrast, not big on the front end. But 800hp!?!? :eek:
 
Ah so you're one of the lucky ones to actually get a Hennessey product as advertised.

Congrats and nice car. :cheers:

They were waiting on parts from another company. And no one was answering the phones or replying to emails. So I had someone I know pay them a visit to see whats going on and speed things up a little. It doesn't take long once they start on it.

I am very lucky they found the car with exact options I wanted (apart from the red brake calipers) in a dealership in the same state. Except for the bucket seats which I didn't want because this is my daily and there isn't cooling in them + regular seats has cooling and more comfortable. The car is fully optioned - luxury package, Carbon fiber package, cabin filter, red calipers, performance data recorder, panoramic roof, suede wheel and shifter, black wheels. It costs just over $100k with taxes, title, plates and shipping to Hennessey. The 800 package is $19,950. Then you got shipping to Saudi and other expenses.

You're the first to say the rear looks better. Well 750hp costs $14,950, 800hp $19,950, 1000hp $84,950 :eek:. They're building a 1000hp one for a customer as we speak. I was planning to get the 750 but I thought if I'm going to do all that then might as well just go for the 800. Both the 750 and 800 have a 36,000 miles/3 year warranty. The 1000 is 2 year/12,000 miles warranty.

Thank you very much :). Once in your life you have to get a real toy. Something you've always wanted. Ever since the last gen CTS-V I've always wanted one. Since its my daily, its perfect. Four door luxury and all the power I'd ever need.

Yeah I did read the bad reviews about them even before I made the decision. But the more recent ones been mostly positive. Did take a little chance. But at the same time it was gonna get checked over by someone I know before shipping but since it was a little late because of waiting on some parts, he went to see it anyways. Don't know if that contributed or not. But they had a lot of cars there. Five other CTS-V's. A lot of Camaro's, Mustangs and other cars. As long as mine is good then I'm good. Did you have a bad experience with them ?

I've just read the stories online, I'm a long way from being able to afford anything that nice. :lol:

Hopefully that day is sooner. Just get what you want, and not what people like. I wouldn't trade this for anything really.
