It isn't a production car and Hennessey is a turd bucket.

We are going to make an offer you can't refuse.

"So, you like your streaming television, huh? It would be a shame if something happened to it."

As opposed to Apple that actively markets that OS X is safe and you don't need any antivirus software. Which is a complete and utter lie.
