2006 Saleen S7 - No Sale at $400,100

The Saleen S7 Twin Turbo sports a 7-liter (7008 cc/427.6 cu in), all-aluminum OHV V8 engine, mounted at 90* approximately in the middle of the chassis for a balanced mid-engine layout delivering power to the rear wheels while keeping the center of gravity towards the middle of the car, improving overall performance. Each cylinder is lubricated via a dry sump system, has two stainless steel valves per cylinder, a compression ratio of 10.0:1, and a bore and stroke of 4.125 and 4.00 inches (104.9 and 101.6 mm), respectively. It generates a maximum power of 750 horsepower at 6400 rpm and a maximum torque of 700 foot-pounds at 4000 rpm. The redline rpm is indicated at 6500 rpm. The chassis comprises a space frame-derived design consisting 4130 lightweight steel and aluminum honeycomb composite reinforcing panels. It is divided into bolt-fastened sub-assemblies to allow for rapid access to critical subsystems. The light weight of the chassis allows for the car to weigh a mere 2750 pounds (1247 kg). The interior of the Saleen S7 was designed to be both luxurious and functional. Leather appears throughout the cabin, with aluminum accents, and the S7 comes with a set of custom-fit luggage. Because of the car's mid-engine layout, it has two trunks, front and rear. Other features include an LCD monitor, rear-view camera, quick-release steering-wheel and a 240 mile per hour (386 km/h) speedometer. The cabin is of an asymmetrical layout, with the custom-fitted driver's seat positioned toward the center both to improve the driver's visibility and center his weight in the vehicle.
