Most expensive car (US)- Saleen


For the lesser mortals like us,it is always interesting to find what options exist on the higher end. I took a plunge and came across the article in Forbes for the most expensive car in US(2005). Turns out this $550,000/- S7 saleen beauty is made from the Mustang Engine deeply modified. It is said that the car will not lose its grip even if we drive the car upside down at around 160mph and this is from the company communication and we do not know how they said that it could do that. Power output is claimed at 550 hp with performance of less than four seconds to 60mph and top speed in excess of 200 mph.
Other features include a video monitor for rearview mirror(as we cannot use the conventional rearview anyway??) and removable steering wheel to ease entry and exit to the tightfitting cabin.
