He should've just left all the wrapping on the 4.0 and stuck it in a climate controlled garage for 30yrs so his grandkids could upwrap it someday, replace all the rotted rubber, then pay Barrett 8% to get a nice negative ROI.
Whacko!

You ask me this guy Savy is nuts. He buys these track-oriented cars, takes them to the track and has a blast driving the snot out of them. Doesn't even car about the occasional off (well, maybe a little).

Well said my friend, well said. Wait until you see my latest videos soon to be posted in a new thread. The more people track these, and enjoy them for what they were made for the better.

You might want to get your facts straight; both cars are MSRP and are sold to the original people on the list. Cars were NOT ordered by dealer for their sale but to the owners spec and, again, sold for MSRP. In fact I do believe "softarga" had his delivered today.
My understanding is that both cars were listed in inventory thus showed up as available when they were spoken for. Again, Hennessy did not sell for over MSRP and did not pull someones order to "resell" for their benefit.

I picked up my 4.0 from Hennessy on August 30 @ MSRP. The two they have now were ordered near the same time as mine and speced by customers. Hennessy does NOT mark up "special cars" As far as future value is concerned - time will tell. I have had nothing but the best customer service from them.
note to self, call hennessy on the next RS.
dont call my fav stealer, carlsen.

The usual BS. Some dealers want to try and squeeze out additional markup. They are under no obligation to pre-sell to individuals. This is a fine opportunity to recognize those dealers that regularly chose to hold out for the highest bidder as opposed to supporting the enthusiast community. Personally I would drive 500 miles out of my way to not support their sales or service department.
well, i will be driving 3000 miles to not support my favorite stealer, carlsen this time. sh*t that feels good.

I just checked with Hennessey and they have 2 RS 4.0s both black in the $206-$207 range. Neither is marked up a penny. Both have a long list of options that include PCM and PCCBs. They are just high dollar cars and too rich for my blood as they list for more than $85k more than the sticker of the GT3 I specced back in 2010 (with sport buckets, PDEM, a few other options and I even got a discount). They have about the same sticker as a highly optioned GT2 had in 2008.

I enjoy the color combo enough that my 4.0 is the same except for the trim (lips, mirrors, wing ends) which the lazy focks at the factory wouldn't paint black for me ! They tell me that I'm lucky that there was an option for the black wheels !
I'm told by Porsche that there will be only 16 PTS out of the 600 4.0 being produced and that this is the "only" 4.0 in Riv Blue .......... but who really knows !
My dealer just confirmed that it was built on the 24th and is now in QLT (quality inspection) and should be here just after Thanksgiving so I guess that this 3.8 will be on the market soon !
