LOT #1047 - 2017 CHEVROLET CAMARO ZL1
HENNESSY CUSTOM EDITION "EXORCIST" - NO RESERVE
This custom 2017 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 Hennessey Performance
Engineering (HPE) press car is #1 of 100 limited-edition Camaros
to bear the title of "The Exorcist," a Hennessy Performance creation
aimed squarely at the Dodge SRT Demon and its Hellcat stablemate.
Originally titled by Mr. Hennessey himself, it was then sold to
a buyer in Kansas where it sat, unregistered or retitled until it
was purchased out of an estate and now offered for sale. This
is the very first car Hennessey produced and was used for press
events and marketing. As such, according to the HPE team, it was
"overbuilt" compared to the 99 "Exorcist" cars that followed. It
goes from 0-60 mph in 2.1 seconds, does the quarter-mile in 9.6
seconds and pinned the 200 mph speedometer with a top speed
of 217 mph, with figures recorded and validated with Racelogic's
Video VBBOX GPS data-logging system.
