    Saleen S5S Raptor

    Looks like an interesting car. Here is a link for more pictures and information of the car.

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    Oh my god. I love the front and side shots of that thing!

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    i don't know why - but from first look, it reminds me of the Gallardo.

    It however reminds me of a pumped up NSX.

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    Wow that is nice. I was expecting it to look crude.

    ..... mixed with the roof line of an R8

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    I see F430 in the last picture.

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    5.0L V8
    650 HP
    0-100 in 4 sec
    price: under 200k US

    Sounds and looks promising

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    The engine runs on ETHANOL!!!
    I don't know about you but there aren't too many ethanol filling stations around (at least here in the US).

    Other than that, I'm a little wishy washy about the styling.
    The front clip reminds me of the NSX.
    A-C pillar is all Gallardo
    Rear end is Gallardo + NSX.

    I totally agree with you. From exterior it looks like Gallardo plus NSX. But anyway, it is not bad at the first glance.

    Rear reminds me too much of an NSX indeed, but other than that I think it looks great.

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    Agree with all above observations as far as styling. Not original from the Saleen camp as too many ques take from existing marquees. Rear end black boxes look Gallardo, NSX front end 430 front fender with Gallardo roofline and side windows.

    This always seems to be the case with American "supercars" as far as styling goes. I think Saleen had something nice with the S7 as far as design department goes.

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    To me it looks very similar to the prototype that was billed to be the NSX replacement two years back or so...

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    i like it though!
    Looks better than both of the above.. 360 just looks dated and the gallardo has the window IN FRONT of the pillar... why? Renault does that. People argue well its cause its a low roof sports car.. well saleen figured it out haha so whats the deal?

    This is a succes!

    Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

    Awsome!

    I've been waiting for a 'cheaper' Saleen for a while now, the S7 (which I love) is just sooo expensive .
    I'm liking this as I'm moving to the states 'soon'
