Saleen S5S Raptor breaks cover
Few days ago we were writing about the launch of the new sports car brand SMS Limited. Now Saleen presents an astonishing concept, the S5S Raptor, a midengine two-seater powered by a 650 hp engine capable of jetting from 0-100 km/h in less than 3.5 seconds while the top speed is in excess of 320 km/h. These performances are achieved with the help of Pirelli Corsa tires: 275/35ZR20s in the front and 315/35ZR20s in the rear. All these will be available at a price around $185,000. Read Article

Sort of attractive and reminiscent of a Pantera blended with an Elise.

The aero lines indicate that this is meant to be more of a GT than supercar that was/is the S7. Less downforce from what I can see.

Apparently Saleen is sticking with the blown V8. Understandable considering how cheap and durable Ford MOD engines are. Still, I wish for something original like the twin turbo V6 in the Noble cars (also Ford sourced, BTW).
