Talking Jizzzz! 705hp Hennessey Camaro! :D

705hp "HPE700" Camaro!

http://www.camaro5.com/?p=380

Gdamn i was wondering when someone would put that sick vette ZR1 engine in the 5th gen. Looks like they didnt even wait until the car came out lol! So check out these stats:

Hennessey Performance Engineering has just announced its 705 hp version of the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, powered by the supercharged LS9 V8 engine from the Corvette ZR1!! It boasts a tire shredding 717 lb-ft of torque! In addition to the additional power is upgraded suspension components, as well as carbon ceramic ZR1 brakes.

Dear lord. I wouldn't let Hennessey tune my lawn mower. Because it would come back with no gas in the tank, no throttle, and only half the blade.

I hope LPE comes back with something better.

Half of the people out there cannot drive cars with 300 hp so lets give them 700 hp plus.

^^^^ First thing I thought as well. Anyone that could afford $100K for a Camaro would probably get a ZR-1 instead.

Hennessey ='s less than desirable to even have a conversation with.
