Lulz, ass.
In the late 90's/early 2000's, he had a horrible reputation. Funnily enough in the same June '01 issue in which Motor Trend tested his first TT Viper, one of the editors wrote in their column about Hennessy screwing over customers, his horrible BBB record/lawsuits, how he kept cars for over a year to just part them out, etc. I remember how he wrote about one customer showing up with a video camera to investigate for his lawsuit. At least in those days, if you were from Texas and thus able to check in regularly on your car, you got a good return on your investment, if you were out of state, you were SOL.
