I'm pretty sure that Saleen has already stated it's ditching the S7. I like this new car, looks like what Honda has been TRYING to do with the new NSX. I think Saleen has it right. I'd love to see the V8 TT from the S7 in a mid-engine, AWD platform. Talk about schwing.

I dont know how much of a replacement it is. The possible MSRP on this is ~180K, whereas the S7 was ~650K
Its supposedly a 5.0L 650 hp engine... nice

that thing is gorgeous... looks like saleen's done it again... I love the contrast between the sharp lines of the side scoops and huge fenderwells... Makes me horny.


now I wanna see what it looks like going 200+ miles per hour...
