Like the Saleen S7?
Me too.
How about a Saleen S7 with twin turbos, 200 more horsepower than the last one, more lateral grip, more downforce, and a better ride?
Hell yeah, me too. Take a look for yourself.

No, I don't. It looks like it was styled by a 14 year-old who used an NSX as a reference point.

I'm not seeing that at all, nor can I see the logic in basing the design of a $450-$550,000 car on a $90,000 one, but whatever. Think what you want.
About the 14 year-old comment...it's an exotic. Have you looked at any of them lately? |

Yes, exotics look a bit overdone at times, but hey so does the performance, so it all evens out.  |

I didn't mean that in an insulting manner. I think that came off the wrong way.
Should've been more like "different strokes for different folks".

Sorry! I was just being a wise guy with that comment! I didn't think you were being insulting, actually.
I know the S7 is an amazing performance car, I just find the body styling to be a bit "juvenile" (for lack of a better word). I just think that for that price tag (especially since it def. WON'T be bought by 22 year-olds), the designers could have made it a bit more. . . well, something!!

That's the thing I dislike most! Though I think the main body shape is also somehow a little unoriginal/uninspired, without those slots, it would look pretty decent (IMHO). |
