Hennessey GT1000 Twin-Turbo

Hennessey Performance has taken us by surprise with a performance of the Ford GT with twin-turbo system that allows this super car to reach 0-60 mph in a blazing 2.6 seconds. Reaching a top speed of over 240 mph, no wonder this is a super car.

In addition to this information, twin turbochargers, the GT1000 system has also added a stainless steel exhaust system, billet throttle body, air-to-water cooling system. You can also tune this car to meet your needs and each car is tested to perform with maximum performance for its buyers. I encourage a person who likes the Fast and the Furious, now performing in reality as a hot seller.
