We witnessed a stride down the prestige hill by Saleen Automotive as they lifted the covers off the new “affordable” Saleen S1 sports car a few days ago. But now they’ve revealed a new S7 that redeems their upscale status. Called the Saleen S7 Le Mans Edition, this new supercar is limited to just 7 units, each of which will poke a US$ 1 million hole in the customer’s wallet.
Saleen has quite a history. The American Supercar manufacturer came out with the mighty fast S7 model in 2000 and then with a faster twin-turbo S7 in 2006. A number of lawsuits filed against them in the recent years by Ford dealers and a few customers due to delayed deliveries gave them a tough time. But they are now back with a bang. They have previewed their new S7, the S7 Le Mans edition. Saleen claims that they are bringing back America’s only true supercar. This edition will hark back to their victory at the 2010 Le Mans.
