Didnt they test a Saleen in the Car and Driver Shootout where the Murci ran an 11.7? Or was that a Mosler? I saw the S7 at last years show in Monterey. Nice car. Inmo, a 180K car, not 430K. Also, it does bear great resemblence to the Mosler, that can be had for alot less. if i was looking for a car like this, id just go to Gunnar Racing and have them make me a custom 962 Streetcar.
Also, we'll see how good the Koeniggsegg is when i test drive it in December.

I think we need a shootout... 
Seriously tho, IMO I'd rather have Steve Saleen's machine, built with serious reputation behind it and the ability to work on the car myself. Also, the Koenigsegg's parts are a touch in the stratosphere so i've "heard".
Saying that with not much of an argument, it's safe to say one can't go wrong with either choice eh?!?

Anyone here driven one? Just wondering what your opinion on the car is. I've seen 2 on the road int he last week and realized I don't think this car has ever been discussed here.

I don't think it's one of those "if you have to ask" questions.
What makes this piece any different then a mosler, Koenigsegg, enzo, CGT or any other supercar out there
