What makes the Hennessey Venom F5 hypercar so special?
Powering the Hennessey Venom F5 is the Fury 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine.
That engine gives the car 1,817hp, and a top speed of 300+mph.
Along with the likes of the McLaren Speedtail, it’s one of the fastest performance cars in the world.
It’s also one of the most expensive, with a base price of $1.8 million.
The example SBX Cars just sold is a 2023 model, finished in a stunning Uranus Blue Metallic.
This example is also a bespoke 1-of-1 design spec, and is chassis number 23 of just 24 produced.
In addition, it was the first Venom F5 to be fitted with factory-upgraded Comfort seats, making it extra special.

Alex Hirschi describes the car as a ‘rocket ship’
Alex Hirschi, AKA Supercar Blondie, has been lucky enough to check the car out before.
She also had her own thoughts to add to the listing of the car.
“The 2023 Hennessey Venom F5 isn’t just fast—it’s a street-legal rocket ship, built to shatter speed records and melt your face off,” she said.
“This thing literally makes 300 mph look easy!”
The car had done just 1,790 miles at the time of its sale.
Inside the car, it has a beautiful Black and Teal leather interior.
Exposed carbon fiber was another nice touch in the cabin of the hypercar.
The Venom F5 is the first fully bespoke car to come from Hennessey, following the Lotus Elise/Exige-based Venom GT.
It isn’t very often that a car like this ever comes up for sale.
With its rarity, pedigree, and pristine condition, it’s no surprise it was snapped up.
Henry joined the Supercar Blondie team in February 2025, and since then has covered a wide array of topics ranging from EVs, American barn finds, and the odd Cold War jet. He’s combined his passion for cars with his keen interest in motorsport and his side hustle as a volunteer steam locomotive fireman at a heritage steam railway.
