An American Supercar - Saleen S7

the new S7 delivers race-car performance in a road-going package. Its 7.0-liter pushrod V-8 belts out 550 bhp and 525 lb.-ft. of torque, assuring warp speeds at will. Expect 0-60-mph sprints somewhere south of 4 sec. and a top speed in excess of 200 mph.
-Road and Track



Sleek and aggressive, the S7 looks every part the supercar. And performance matches appearance, thanks to a thundering V-8, light overall weight and racing technology throughout.

Under its carbon fiber bodywork, the S7 is pure race car. The steel space frame is built around a mid-engine configuration with unequal A-arms at all four corners and racing-spec Brembo brakes.

The S7's tastefully designed interior tightly wraps its occupants in rich Spinneybeck leather. Once belted in, the cockpit proves surprisingly comfortable and accommodating for a supercar.

It wouldn't be a supercar without scissor-style doors and a roofline that's barely above your bellybutton. Equally striking is the S7's extremely wide stance and long silhouette.

Only marginally less powerful than its racing brethren, the 7.0-liter V-8 puts out a healthy 550 bhp and a staggering 525 lb.-ft. of torque. Good enough for 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds.

7.0 liter v8... with 550 hp, thats like... 80 horsepower per liter? it's a nice car though. put a european engine in and it'll be all good.

what's a pushrod v-8? that's like when there arent any cams and there are rods coming out of the engine core to the rocker arms right?
