BMW owners are notorious for bad mouthing the company and many others do it with other brands, it’s par for the course. Much of it is the squeaky wheel thing. Can’t please everybody, every time. Again the guys I know from forums and personally have no complaints with their dealings with them.
This goes WAY beyond a few owners. Hennessy is basically running a massive pyramid scheme. Whatever money one sends the company for a build now is paying for parts from a build 12 months behind on payment. This stuff is well documented, and it’s only gotten worse in the last few years.

There were PLENTY of stories on how it’s basically a crapshoot whether or not you’ll actually get the car built, or if you have to sue the company to get your car back. Seriously, GOOGLE it up. It’s scary how people continue to fall prey to their practices.

When I used to work in the industry, it was basically implied that Hennessy models himself after Carrol Shelby, but not the “good” part of Shelby, but the shady as f**k business practices.
