This is the only thing I could get on it, but Car and Driver featured it in the Supercar Challenge issue in 2002.

That'* pretty dang sweet, but as a daily driver? :?
I only drive about twice a week...
Besides, nobody ever stated in this thread that it HAD to be a daily driver.
Heh, I know, I'm just giving ya grief

Im with him! I love the sound of those cars. Got to ride in a 1996 Silver convertible for my 16th birthday (im 20) and will never forget it. We couldnt get it fast enough for any length of time to get into 6th gear, too much traffic. And it wont go into 6th at anything below 85 ish

The only issue ive ever heard with those is keeping the power on the ground. My friend'* dad owns a previous year'* Hennessy (that ive never been allowed to touch :? proly because its the only reason im his friend) and He says its so torquey he cant keep the rear tires connected and starts from second or third from all but the steepest stops. Any amount of gas from first just lights 'em up.
