Hennessey Venom F5 up for sale at Amelia Island Auction next month

One of the first Hennessey Venom F5s built will be up for sale at the Amelia Island Auction on March 1-2, 2024. The hypercar is estimated to sell at $1.2 million-$1.65 million.

Hennessey is building just 24 examples of the Venom F5. This one here is chassis no. 2. It is finished in a stunning Lausanne Silver exterior with blue and red pinstripes and has an Ink leather interior. The car is basically brand-new, with just 229 miles on the odometer.

The Venom F5 is powered by a 6.6-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 engine that develops 1817 hp @ 8000 rpm and 1,193 lb-ft @ 5000 rpm. The engine is hooked up to a semi-automatic single-clutch transmission that drives the rear wheels.

The Venom F5 is based on a carbon monocoque and weighs just 1360 kg. It has a power-to-weight ratio of 1298 hp per ton and is built to reach speeds in excess of 300 mph.

John Hennessey, recently revealed his plans to set a new speed record with the Venom F5. We can expect this American hypercar to make history later this year.
