You know you’ve officially arrived, when automakers are joking with you about their Dougscore. Congrats, Doug. Love seeing all the success!
Pretty sure that ship sailed a while ago
@@HarryMollyNut at least 3 years ago. The majority of Doug's videos are marketing videos for commoner daily drivers where he is paid a lot from the marketing department of manufacturers like Toyota and Honda (he talks about this in a podcast called the iced coffee hour). He didn't say this in particular, but I'm certain his Doug score can be boosted by these massive companies for a bit of a high 6 figure monetary boost.
@@derekderek2570 Honestly, pretty happy with Doug getting his bag.
I dont watch the dougscore part but i enjoy his video
Following him before dougscore was a thing
Next would be Christian Von Koenigsegg joking about Doug being the type of guy:
You know it’s gonna be a good Doug review when it’s over 40 minutes long
@DONT CLICK MY VIDEOS!! MY VIDEO IS FOR COURAGEOUS shut up
LoL that was the first thing I saw. I said 40+min Doug vid what the hell is reviewing..... Ooooh click play
A car named Hennessy, have your drinks before hand...
Long man good
Not the usual 25 minute infotainment review followed by a 3 minute drive to CVS.
27:34 That is without a doubt, a gun box. The fact that they shape it custom says it all.
Fitting for a texan car
roll tide
Let's not stereotype
i wonder if anyone is gonna get it shaped for a 100 dollar bill wrapped hipoint, thats the kinda expensive gun people with 2 million dollars for a car will carry.

Me with $100.81 in my bank account: “I’d definitely get the cupholder”
Can you imagine in the future, if the F5's with the cup holders sell for way more than ones that don't LOL

God bless the editor for including the unit conversions whenever doug talks about power and weight
i think doug doesnt have an editor
@@Cessna-dv8uy He does.
@@Cessna-dv8uy now he does but he got him very very late. He Talks about That in Interview with Graham i think.
He didnt want to get one because he thought no one will make something so similiar to him and then he laughed that he doesnt know why he even assumed that.
Tbh I cannot tell when he got the Editor, nothing really changed.
He always does
I am grateful too!
Greetings from Argentina
Any car that can make Doug sound like Marv getting electrocuted in “Home Alone” when it accelerates has to be mind blowing fast.
😂😂😂
straight up and down
Still looking for a car that can make Doug sound like the "pigeon scream" ;)
Hahahahaha. What a reference!
His abilities seem par
Hennessey: We added soft close doors cause they don't add much weight and its convenient.
Also Hennessey: We removed the rear hatch latch to save 3 pounds.
They could get the Average American to lose 30 pounds instead.
@@srinitaaigaura LMFAO
Hennessy: we removed parts from your car to put on another car that I promised someone that paid more money than you, deal with it.
@@srinitaaigaura 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It is kinda funny, though it makes sense to me to add the extra weight for the doors when I think about it. Hennessey's rationale is probably that the doors are something you interact with every time you use the car, and spending a little extra weight to make the experience nicer is more worthwhile than spending extra weight on an engine cover, which most people will use very rarely.
That is a damn good looking car, and I *LOVE* the fact that the infotainment screen is as generic as they could possibly make it -- Apple CarPlay and/or Android Auto will essentially *be* your infotainment, and it will be updated as you upgrade your phone over the years. Very wise choices by Hennessey all the way around, in my opinion. Not to mention it sounds absolutely *AMAZING!* Kudos to them -- really, *really* impressed with this car.
The problem with putting the lattest tech in cars is the tech stay the lattest of current year. Automakers please take note.
The fact that this car won't have full federal homologation due to absence of airbags isn't a wise choice by Hennessey!
The dash and infotainment screen need to be OLED and not IPS displays. The hotspots and general non-uniform brightness look really cheap for two of the only things they put inside the car that you can look at and will look especially bad at night time.
The fact that the company said “look we know we are going to get a low practicality Doug score” just shows how big and well known Doug really is in the Car Industry 💪🏽
He is literally THE guy brands give their cars to review and give them a well rounded score. And I couldn’t choose anyone else except myself for obvious reasons to do Doug’s job
Not surprised to see that John is familiar with Doug. He's the same guy that back in the day would spew drunken tirades on TCL/VWVortex, Rennlist, Ferrarichat, etc.
Doug slipped into a major void in this spot and now basically owns auto journalism.
@One Issue Voter There's an exception for low volume manufacturers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_Volume_Motor_Vehicle_Manufacturers_Act_of_2015
This lamb concurs.
"This storage compartment can actually be custom shaped to fit a *certain* item that a car buyer might want to put in there, so...if they have some small *thing* they always know they're going to be carrying around, they can have that storage compartment tailored to fit it."
Hennessey originates in Texas. Satellites are linking up. Steam is coming out of my ears from thinking too hard. Wait a minute...he's talking about a gun. It's a gun, folks.
Possibly, but a panel on the passenger floorboard isn't the best place to carry a gun. Most people want it within reach.
That cockpit is not huge, you can reach it quickly.
Not necessarily, could it be a vibrator.
@@kaisersoymilk6912 this is Texas we're talking about. Could be a vibrating gun. New two in one VibroGlock. Protection at its most satisfying.
I'm from Texas and there is no question that this is the case. I almost think they told him gun explicitly but he didn't want to come right out and say it, lol.
Oh man Doug, your screams of sheer joy on this ride are infectious and I was smiling from ear to ear with you!!!!!
Me too ..ha😁
I love Doug reviewing 2M$ cars in 2$ clothes 😍😍
😂
😂😂😂😂 bruh 😂😂😊
That's what makes him real. He's not pretentious.
Knowing that the Hennessy guys watch enough Doug to know about the practicality score says how much influence Doug has. That made me smile 😁
it is an American car, so it does need to have an American V8, optimized for garage use, cheaply designed, with no practicality,

White is too girly. To each their own. Red for me tbh.
Agreed!
I love how Doug just lets go and fun-screams without a care! 😁
It really amuses me when doug wears shirts with dancing potatoes while reviewing $2mill, 1817hp cars
He wears it with a lot of pride like a child wearing a shirt of their favorite superhero
He's a whole child lol
@Emperor Sniper: well, in this case, the Hennesey Venom isn't worth not even 1/20 from 2 mil. tbh ... an extended Lotus + Corvette engine ...
@@legioner9 if you put it that way, then I imagine cars like Pagani are just Lamborghini chassis with Mercedes Benz engines
if you know know I mean
@@emperorsniper2806 I understand you. At least Pagani has fully designed car body and interior. Which is way more effort that was put into that car than in the Hennessey. They don't compare.
By far the best acceleration "woos" from Doug. Pure joy right there.
Those woos were the review
And the massive V8 sound in the backround is the cherry on top
I think it was supposed to be Texas cowboy whoops.
I love how they go up in pitch as he goes faster 🤣🤣
first what the "thisss" and the extension of his hands now we are meassuring acceleration by doug "woos"
The key is an "F" Doug, for "F5" hence the key is like the name, the headlight resemblance is a nice as well.
I’ve probably watched 98% of the videos you’ve made on here and that was my favorite Doug reaction. The sheer joy and thrill was palpable. Great review, amazing vehicle. I’ve always loved the stuff Hennessy produced over the past couple a decades. 👌🏻
That interior engine sound is incredible. The roar the clunk of the transmission, and the rattles. It sounds like a nascar.
Ikr

Doug's screaming drowned it out at the good parts.

@@FoxMacLeod2501 😂😂
Honestly, this just looks like the natural progression of the Saleen S7, and there is NOTHING wrong with that. This car looks great, not too crazy, just fast, and fun!
Not to mention how great it sounds brother
Too bad he wasn't able to drive the S7 he reviewed a few years back because the seat was stuck in place.
@@Hanzi2Wavy hell yeah. All around, a nice looking, and well done hypercar from Hennessey.
@@AntonioSS22 sad really. I hope he finds another example.
I saw one in person at a museum in LA. I didn’t appreciate it as much as I should’ve. There were so many great cars there but I have the f5 in the background of some of the photos. Coolest background car ever
Doug. Watching your review is about as close as im going to get to owning any hyper car. Appreciate you and your team that works behind the scenes.
This is why I love Doug; I knew it was a cool car by default..but this in depth review just gave me a new appreciation...from afar and with little info its like he- cool Hennessey dur; but looking at it and seeing what goes into making it, how actually stunning it is, being able to truly appreciate the design and all the hard work and beyond commendable effort that went into making it I can honestly say I love this car....its so beautiful now that i've taken the time to admire it...wow what a car....this is truly the definition of glance, hold up, double take, stare, awe 👁👄👁
Chill.
Did he mention that there are no airbags in this multi million dollar car? An obvious quirk imo!
I think the key fob looks more like an "F" than the headlights, especially with the placement of the unlock and lock buttons.
I agree! But it is the F5 so it still makes sense. A bit F1 logo-y but still good.
I thought it was supposed to mimic a golf club 😂😂😂😅🤣
I thought it was a gear shifter
F
Looks a bit like a gun.
It's extremely cool to have the chance of watch almost all car guts thanks to the other F5 opened up around the garage. Thumbs up for Hennessey and Doug to show it to us!
Are you guys getting paid to talk this much crap about the car? It’s a shit car!
This got to be one of the best Hyper/Supercar reviews. So detailed and the inner workings of the car are shown like the engine cover part and the front. Usually he doesn't cover those.
I feel like I really need to buy this car now Doug thanks for showing me it and how practical it is!
Lol it was sold out when they first announced it like 2 years ago. If u want one the going price is 5m 2st hands😂
@@Mystic-on5xy true❤
In all honesty I'm surprised that this car even made it into production, since after it's announcement and all its claims I just kind of stopped hearing about it and when I remembered it existed every now and again I'd look for updates and see nothing new. Then, seemingly out of nowhere they made a working model and did a 275mph run. Now after seeing this review, I'm impressed. Good job Hennessey.
I really do like the venom. it just doesn't look very good. the hood looks way to long from the wind shield to the axle and hangs to much over the front axle alot, almost giving it a front engine look, and the styling in general just looks cheap IMO.
@@jwalster9412 i think it's one of the better looking super cars tbh.
I don’t underestimate Hennessy when it comes to anything. It is an impressive car, even if it is unobtainium, except for the Dubai crowd.
@@jwalster9412 wtf it looks great
@@AXELVISSERS to an American, it looks good, to me a Canadian it looks very over simplified.
As a European (German) i'm happy to see the USA having a Company like Hennessey not giving up and building their own Hypercar
I know of one Hennessey Venom F5 coming here to Germany in Munich and i can't wait to see it at Car Events here in the Alps as the Owner is always bringing his Cars out to them and actually drives them each Weekend - so actually using them instead of letting them collect Dust.
Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps
Wie soll das Auto eigentlich in Deutschland zugelassen werden ohne Fahrer airbag?
As an American, you are welcome from us yanks for protecting you for the last 70 years. Keep buying German oil and natural gas, shutting down your nuclear power plants and pushing toward vehicle electrification. Remember at the UN when your Delegates laughed at Donald for claiming you were getting in trouble by becoming dependent on Russian oil and natural gas. Hehe. Enjoy your cold winter ahead.
What are you talking?
This car is not engineered or designed in the USA. They are build in England
@@sauconyful Hennessy was started and is based in the U.S, but yes, these we're designed and built in the U.K. So it's sort of of British-US car. Not to mention that it's powered by a Corvette motor, which last I checked, aren't British
Noch eine Berchtesgadener!
Ich hab nicht gewissen über dieser „supercar-owner”. Was ist sein Name und welche events geht er nach?

Hi Doug. Thank you for your work. Showing accelerating car sound and screaming all the time is suboptimal blend.
I’ve watched all of Doug’s videos and this is still the most giddy I’ve ever seen him while giving it the beans and feeling the way the car pulls and sounds
In the past 12 days we got a review of a Lamborghini Miura, a Bronco Raptor, a Fiat Panda, the Hennessey F5. And the Chiron SuperSports is coming soon. Well done sir Doug.
And yet people still complain about Doug's content being too many 'normal' cars
@Susio Dox Incheon People who are actually passionate about cars. Not just the fastest or most expensive or newest. The Panda is a staple of Italian car culture, and the video provided an interesting overview of an iconic affordable car from a different era.

That much power from two turbos and a V8 is absolutely insane
Have you heard of a company called Koenigsegg?
@@JudeMarchisio I have not
@@JudeMarchisio the have electric motors too
Koenigsegg has a V8 but the car has problem when it comes to speed. It kinda lowers it speed for purposes, but you know it has the highest rate of getting accidents. Most of the hyper car has accidents but koenigsegg has the worst. I am not saying I hate it. But look the costs that koenigsegg have and Hennessy Venom is surprisingly great car with money. Also the speed is suprising. Yes I love koenigsegg but to Hennessey it not only best for money but the speed!👍
the V8 with two turbos slapped onto it making that much power doesn't surprise me. what surprises me is the fact that an 1800HP twin turbo V8 that redlines at 8.5k isn't in some heavily modded drag car build, but in a BRAND NEW ROAD CAR that somehow PASSED EMISSIONS.
Ive been watching this man long before he gained the recognition he is rightfully enjoying. Consistently keeping up a virtual pipeline of entertaining, informative, and interesting car content, Doug is the undisputed king of car reviewers. A tireless work ethic, a genuine love for cars, and a commitment to his craft, Doug really delivers car info like no other. I hope he continues his contributions to the car world and RUclips. Otherwise, he will undoubtedly get a low Doug score.
Man from 38:30 it gives me goosebumps every time. The V8 sound is out of this world. I don't know how many times I've watched this part.
Good to see the actual company be so open and give the extensive details of the car.

@@autopilots The guy has a well known and documented history of fraud. It's common knowledge to anyone in the car world.

I still have a weird taste for Hennessey Performance from all of the stories years ago of them running away with customer money, using cheap knockoff parts, and other shady doings. Maybe they've improved since then, but everytime I hear Hennessey Performance, that's what I think of.
Same
Same
Yeah it's been a stain on their legacy for sure
you are not the one thinking about that, many people do. They are still the same thing and even when they make a new one only some people get attention. I am driving this company HQ many times and it is not catch my feeling, even it from my states. this video long cause they paid for that guy to review and want to get back their reputation which it is gone. that company will never get in another level like other mod company. if you have a change to see the owner or tour in that shop i can tell you that put your money to elsewhere
Me too, F*** them!
Love the Vanna White-esque hand gestures, Doug. You rock.
Congrats on success Doug!!
I hope Doug is able to find a Zenvo to film in one day. Would love to see the quirks and features in one of those!
Specially the one with the moving wing
Worse case he can borrow Shmee150's Zenvo when he ships it over in a few months time.
I hope shmee can lend him his zenvo in the future!

@@aidaaliten8817 5
I see gold engine bay, I think Tavarish
If people ridicule this car for using a Chevy engine than I shall rebuttal saying that the original Koenigsegg had a Ford engine that was commonly used in the Crown Victoria. Pagani had a Mercedes Benz engine, McLaren had a BMW engine. All these super car companies start from somewhere and than work their way up. I’m excited to see what Hennessy has to offer going forward with the F5
modern mclaren engines are still based off a 30 year old nissan racing engine, so…
That MB engine in those Paganis were made by AMG specifically for Pagani, because of his past experience with Mercedes racing team. BMW engine in the Mclaren was an F1 derived V12 no other street car ever had. You can't just compare those to Hennessey.

Y'know, the only reason why I keep coming back to this video is to hear your scream at the end and the engine rumbling fiercely at the same time 😂😂
Pretty amazing for an automotive tuning companies first real go at a hypercar all their own. Remember that all the supercar companies started out small, especially companies like Koenigsegg. Also, having a LS engine in your supercar is a plus. The LS series of small block V-8's are some of the best engines ever made in history. Why not have power and reliability? Hopefully, Hennessey will keep growing and be able to produce beautiful American supercars for years to come.
Also I would say it is perfect for a American hypercar. What engine is more American than a small block V8.
this is NOT an LS engine. Not even CLOSE.
@@THESLlCK it’s a heavily modified version of a LS engine
@@ryanharris9196 it has absolutely no parts from any production LS motor ever
Well ...ls or not I'm wondering if the customer or customer's will get the product they paid for. Wondering how this goes. Super badass car no doubt.
Hey doug, I remember you used to show us how the turn signal lights were/ break lights etc. for us that will never see those in person it always was a good plus in your videos
Very cool car, and also very beautiful. And the name is super cool, F5 after a strongest tornado.
Well done, I did not expect something like this from USA, but after a legendary Dodge Viper this might be the next real sports car icon.
Why are you talking like the corvette did not exist ?
8:35 - I disagree with the claim that latches and hinges would have added about 1,4 kg of extra weight. The strong and heavy steel bonnet hinges for the AUDI TT, complete with the pair of gas springs, all weight a total of 1296 grams. Remember that they are rated to hold a very heavy bonnet clamshell whose size is far larger than the small and light engine cover of the Venom F5. Also, a basic steel slim-line universal bear latch (sold everywhere in the USA) weights 280 grams, while its mini version weights just 160 grams. A custom made aluminum hinge weights approximately 80-120 grams and considering the engine cover of the Venom F5, it will be enough to install two lightweight gas springs at 90 grams each. A custom made aluminum latch weighs no more than 75 grams. Two aluminum hinges, two latches and two gas springs would weight a total of 570 grams in the worst case scenario. If a single latch is used at the middle instead of two latches at the sides, the maximum weight drops to no more than 495 grams.
So cool to see and hear an American V8 rumble in a super hypercar.

I don't normally comment on these videos - I just enjoy them quietly BUT I gotta say DAMN this thing is amazing. The styling is very restrained and beautiful and all the little touches they have added to make it unique just tip it over the edge in my opinion. It seems thoughtful yet minimal. Bravo to Hennessy for what they have done here.
If I recall correctly, this car won a design award. I can't remember what award it was but it has something to do with its design.

Forty years from now an F5 with the optional cup holder will be the featured car on Cars and Bids!
Hey Doug,
a cool little quirk you seem to have missed is, that the climate vents are straight out of an Audi A3. No criticism to Hennessey though, cause these vents are high quality and fit the interior quite well.
Good catch. To be honest though car companies do thing like that all of the time... even release the same car just with a different logo.... Dodge stealth as a example lol.
Now I just wonder who’s the poor guy that got his A3 stuck at Hennessey without climate vents.
I'm almost sure the climate controls he spoke so fondly of are just a standard Nest home thermostat.
Known for SAYING they tune cars, mostly they just take delivery and leave them sitting behind the shop for months on end
Wow… John Hennessey understands people. The amount of attention to detail, from the treasure chest to the gold inside the engine bay is truly incredible. I work in the aero space industry as a welder, and the precision found in this vehicle is world class!
Thanks Doug for reviewing this car!!
Wonder who got the keys with metal from the challenger launch? Wouldn’t want to be in their cars
I am here because i saw a bright blue hennessy venom F5 On the highway today, and was extremely curious about what a "venom F5" Was.
I had no idea there was only 24 of them.
I love the way this car looks, I'm surprised Doug only gave it an 8/10. It has some serious Saleen S7 or McLaren F1 vibes, especially the angle and curvature of the windshield. It's exhaust sounds amazing, but it's just too bad the "treasure chest" isn't filled with bottles of Hennessy.... I'm kind of disappointed it's mostly foam padding around the "jewelry box", for 2 Million dollars, they could have thrown in at least 1 bottle of Cognac without breaking bank. 😒
Doug is kind of stingy with the style ratings
I think it looks a lot like the Noble M600, with C8 side intakes
Agree. I like the look better than the Chiron which scored higher.
@@redrum2204 Wow, never heard of the Nobel M600 before so i looked it up, i see what you mean, they both have a very similar profile....be nice if Doug ever finds time to review one when/if he visits the UK again.
Given Hennessy's reputation, Venom F5 buyers will be lucky if they even get their car fully-assembled. Asking such a shit company to make their products a better value is a wasted wish.

A great quirky presentation as always! Thank you Doug, I really enjoy your style. One request; please, please, I beg you to pronounce it Coupé - since it's a type of car, and not a thing you keep your pigeons in!
i loved the viper venom from hennessey and how badass they were on magazine covers..my dream car as a kid in the early 2000s..a couple years later i remember there were message boards talking about how owners had parts taken from their cars without their consent, parts missing, blown engines, delays, theft etc. ..i hope they cleaned their ways now and wishing them the best with this F5 project
Doug is the guy! He doesn't bother with taking off the engine cover, he just gets a second car with the job already done.
😳😳😳😳🤯 9:25
BEHIND DOUG THAT'S GOT TO BE JOHN HENNESSY'S VR-200 (RED MITSUBISHI 3000GT VR4), THE _VERY FIRST_ CAR HE MODIFIED, AND WON A "LAND SPEED CONTEST" IN!! DOUG IS CLEARLY IN TEXAS AT HENNESSY DOING THE REVIEW SO IM THINKING IT ALMOST HAS TO BE THE ONE. IDK, IMO ITS JUST COOL AF TO SEE IT THERE.
Every curve, every detail has been meticulously designed and engineered to create a visually striking and aerodynamically optimized masterpiece.
"This car is missing this.."
"This car doesn't do this..."
"This car isn't good at this.."
Hennessy: "that was intentional"
Do you really want a fronk in your 1800 hp car? The things it doesn't have really aren't relevant for this type of car.
What does the horsepower have to do with the frunk? What i don't want is every shortcoming to be called "intentional".
Yeah some of those sounded like bs honestly
@@Carlisho its hennessey if course its bs lol
@@K6GSXRider Well it was intentional obviously lol.
"This compartment can be custom molded to fit an item they will carry a lot." From a car maker in Texas... I wonder what they have in mind lol
Something in a shape of that ignition key 😄
That's just what I was thinking lmao, what else would need custom molding
You deserve every bit of the success you’ve earned.
I’m watching this again a year later and since Cars and Bids has grown to the point that you’ve been able to purchase your dream car, the Carrera GT and I’m sure basically has secured your future financially well into retirement. Meanwhile, you get to do a job any “car guy” can only dream of.
Wait that yoke looks super cool. One question, where did they fit the driver airbag?
as a chinese viewer in China, I watched nearly every video doug uploads on youtube, probably my favorite uploader on youtube. I mean I hardly comment under his video, and few vehicles could make me excited. Of course there are plenty of cars could make me feel happy but not that crazy, even if Bugatti or Koenigsegg. However, that monster makes me totally crazy, a 6.6L twin turbo combustion engine without any electric motor which has more than 1800 horsepower, is so precious under the electrification climate. Both its exterior and interior are so beautiful. Hoping doug can review more hypercars like this. Cheers!
Yea, that 1800hp is just getting crazy! Like you said, most cars in that HP range are electric or have both an ICE and electric motors. Glad you appreciate a crazy V-8, and glad to see you have no issues with the firewall to hang out on YT. Take care!
Wow this car is incredible. The lines and curves are exactly what you are looking for from a car of this nature. This to me looks like the best version of this design style I have seen yet. Great video Doug, keep up the good work. :)
im not so crazy about the rear but the front is very clean
Me to, rear is confused but front of the car is great
I've never seen Doug scream like that when flooring it, this thing will tear your head off!
Everytime i watch doug, the car from the previous review vid i watched is in the cars and bids promo
You are one heck of a most sincere youtuber Doug. Keep it up!! I love your shows.
The key is in the shape of the “F” in F5. Also the headlight is in the shape of the “F” in F5.
first thing I thought, as a european: hey look, a pistol shaped key, what else to expect from an american-texan car
Came here to say this. How did Doug not put the 2 together?
and I thought it was a golf club 😆
I thought it was the mirror 😭
Please return the doug score part where you specify each category one by one thats one of the key thing I like about you chanel
Checked one out at Cars & Coffee yesterday. Most impressive.
