i have 650 #8 I have bragged and bragged on hennessey the quality of the work, the performance of the car. The people i worked with. 100% top notch. I am over half way saving the money to have them build another car for me. If you have specific questions i will be more than happy to address them.

The best testimonial of how our company is doing and how our products and packages are performing is to hear it directly from our customers and reviews by those in the automotive industry. We have a few members on the forum who can tell you first hand about their experience with not just the Hennessey Performance upgrades that have been done on their vehicle, but the members of the staff whom they work directly with for the complete experience and satisfaction.

All of the reviews that have been done about our vehicles, including the Camaro are viewable online at Hennessey Articles.

While we enjoy the holidays with our family and friends, we look forward to seeing other owners posting within this thread. Also feel free to check out some images and information in another thread, Hennessey Performance Camaro Customers

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays,
James

I have only 1 personal experience with Hennessey. I knew the history but also could see there was a "new" Hennessey so i purchased a CAI from them. I purchased it simply because of it's looks. When I went to install the new air box the fit and finish was terrible....I cut on it trying to "help" the fit and finally threw it away. I fabricate sheet metal in my business so it was no big deal to make my own....but for the $ ???....i just chalked it up to experience.....

I would give Andy at ADM a call for any upgrades!

Merry Christmas!

There have been several threads lately concerning vendors who were slow to respond to an issue or even not at all. With that in mind i wanted to share portions of a PM I received this evening.

Quote:

pls give me your name and i will gladly send you a full refund no questions asked. sorry that you had problems with your air intake kit.

we would have done it sooner if we knew you were unhappy with the product.

thank you and have a great christmas.

That's about as good as it gets....got to give credit where it's due! My apologies to hennessey for not giving them the opportunity to make it right in the beginning....

I have an HPE 550 and I LOVE it. I am thrilled with everything about the car. Fit and finish is great, performance is great...... however.... my door entry sill plates were wearing on the interior door panel on the bottom. Dont why there were clearance issues or not......threw em away! Was really bummed about that! Im afraid they were going to scratch something worse. I will hopefully be ordering one of their convertibles when they get some stocked up!

i have the CAI, and had no problems installing. i did have to retap the MAF screws though, but was no big deal. nice product and good looks too.....

ITMerc · 12-25-2010, 10:40 AM

I've been nothing but impressed with Hennessey from day 1. Started off building HPE650#1 and ended up with HPE800#2. Great facility, great people, AWESOME cars!

My twin turbo is absolutely gob-smackingly brutal when driven with intent but when you just want to cruise around town its still a fully drive-able car, no issues even in stop and go traffic during the worst heat Houston threw at us last summer. Its taken multiple best in class show awards and even 'Best 2010' AND 'Best Camaro' overall at the Super Chevy show here in Houston.
