I did not get to hear it because it was already parked when I got to the car show . And I did not see the owner near by, Hell I would not leave a foot away from a car like that if it were mine.

I had the luck of seeing one of these bad boys in person in San Jose CA, as for power it has a supercharged V8 that has 600 horsepower I think.

Cool MY new Baby

Well Hello My friends. I thought i would join this thread because its such a nice car. I know this because i own one. My name is Peter Tormey. I just inherited a large sum of money and my first play of action was to buy a saleen s7. i bought it out of a dealer in virginia. I just registered as a user so i will fix my profile and put a pic of it on there

Ive had this car doing 212 on freeway 35 w and i must bow to it for this car is a god. and i know this because i normally ride bikes my baby is a 05 yamaha r1 with nos and this car would give it a run for its money if not whip its butt.
