    Well done Joe and great job with that background on this S7. This is one of my all-time favorite cars. I am looking at my 1:18 scale model of an S7 in that exact some orange right now. You are right about the timeless design because this thing looks better than many other supercars out today. Again, well done and the stats on this car puts many of today's supercars to shame. Simply INCREDIBLE!

    I knew I recognized this Saleen S7, it was featured in a tuner documentary on That Racing Channel, here on TH-cam. The big "N" on the intake plenum stands for Nth Moto, the tuner company which modified this car from 750hp stock, to its current 1100hp.

  • @donaldoc

    It was very well known car in my neighboring city of Troy, MI!
    Your opening monologue about the car, and Steve Saleen, are totally spot on! You did your homework for this one! 👏
    Less than 5 miles from my current residence, was the plant, where those current Saleen Mustangs, were engineered, and converted...
    The S7, as put you it, is a timeless modern marvel!
    And Steve was, and perhaps stills is, a true visionary.
    Unfortunately, he's had his share of financial woes, !ike other automotive designers, here in the metro Detroit, MI, area!
    Truly, "thank you" , for showcasing this one, on your channel! 🏁🏁
    P. S. ... The polished wheels fit well with the street car, however, I totally agree with you on blacked out ones, if this were the, "Type R", model! 😉
