While I don't have the cash to hand over to Hennessey, I'd have to do more research before I made a decision if I did have the money. That one article is dated 2002. There's an orthopedic surgeon here in town the has a Hennessey modded ZL1 Camaro and loves it. The same doctor all has a GT500 and loves it too.
So I'm not sure if the problems are accurate, a fluke, or an internet rumor still being propagated. And here we have a swipe from elfiero who has already been discredited a couple of times on TMS.
Hearing from owners that have first hand experience is much more credible. They're still in business, still building fast cars...

the 2013-14 gt500s come with the TR6060 instead of the MT82, and 5th gear in that transmission has a 0.77:1 gear ratio, while the MT82 has a 5th of 1.0:1 gear ratio before going to overdrive.

Wow ! That was John Hennesseys personal car. I wonder what he would sell that Mustang for when he moves on to a different car. I also wonder what times it ran in the quarter mile.
