It's a small video but since Saleen S7 vids are quite rare I decided to post it.

Here's the link

Enjoy! :D

Edit: Just found another one on the same server, kind of a burnout..

Thanks. I agree, even though it's short, there aren't a lot of S7 videos around (other than in race clips), so seeing one in regular day use is cool. Thanks again for sharing the find...

Wow, NICE vids! That is possibly the sexiest car on the market. It seems to have REALLY good traction too! Which is odd, because most supercars arent that great out of the holeshot. Anyone know what it runs?? Looks damn fast, maybe 11s?

Very cool, look at that "thing go"

He took it easy for the 1st sec and then gave it. You don't want to blow a tranny on a $500.000 car

Nice. S7 vids are rare, and very welcome. That thing actually had a pretty nice takeoff, but once it got going and went WOT, you could really hear the slippage of the wheels. That thing is pretty f'in fast tho... good stuff.

Very nice vids. Thank you. Strange sound S7 has, it doesn't purr, it sound's like the engine is not running good, like all the cylinder are not in sync :D But it sure goes!

It sounds american :twisted:

thanks for the vid BTW

awesome, that car looks much better in a video, than in photos, i had no idea that it would sound like this and move so quickly, nice, this may be the true and perhaps only american supercar, especially when considering the more recently released S7 turbo

Nice Vid. Now if you go to http://www.supercars.net/cars/2005@$Saleen@$S7%20Twin%20Turbox.html

you will find all the information on the twin turbo including the super fast quarter mile time of 10.7 sec. Wow :!: I would imagine the naturally aspirated s7 would be much slower, maybe in the high 11's to mid 12's.
