Saleen S7 Twin Turbo

The Saleen S7 Twin Turbo is a high performance 2-door/2-passenger American supercar that was designed to compete with the fastest, quickest and most powerful supercars in existence.

With 750 hp(559kW) and a 0-60mph time of 2.8s, the Saleen S7 Twin Turbo is unquestionably a force to be reckoned with. It can go from 0 to 100 mph in 5.9s and from zero to 100 and back to zero in 11.2 seconds. This street ready racecar is capable of well over 200 miles per hour.

The Saleen S7 was introduced to the world in the year 2000. It was jointly designed by RML and Saleen, Inc. and is currently being built at Saleen's headquarters factory in Irvine, California. Prior to 2005, the Saleen S7 power output was 550 hp (410 kW). For the Twin Turbo model (2005), the engine was equipped with two turbochargers and power output was increased to 750 hp (559 kW).

The S7's shape was designed for optimal aerodynamics, drag-to-lift ratio and extreme down force. At the speed of 160 mph the Saleen S7 produces its own weight in downforce and could theoretically be driven upside down and still stay attached to the road.

The S7 comes with some standard unique amenities like a removable steering wheel and video rearview mirror (there is a small video camera discreetly mounted in the rear of the car). Seats and other interior surfaces are covered in elegant leather and suede. The Saleen S7 Twin Turbo is the longest and lowest two-seat sports car on the market.
