It has been more than two decades since the Saleen S7 was first unveiled and despite its age, it still looks the part and remains one of the most outlandish hypercars ever built in the United States.
The S7 you’re looking at is a rare Twin Turbo model and is being sold through Bring a Trailer with just 1,300 miles on the clock. It is located in Miami, Florida and is being sold with a copy of the window sticker, a letter from Saleen, and a clean Carfax report. With 17 days left in the auction it had already attracted a highest bid of $425,000.

The listing reveals that the car has been equipped with Saleen’s Competition Package that includes a revised carbon fiber front spoiler, rear diffuser, and a body-width rear wing. It sits on 19-inch front and 20-inch wheels wrapped in 275/35 and 335/30 Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. Suspension takes the form of unequal-length double wishbones and aluminum coilovers at each corner while braking is provided by monoblock calipers and slotted rotors.
As a Saleen S7 Twin Turbo variant, the car is powered by a mid-mounted 7.0-liter all-aluminum V8 with twin Garrett turbochargers and produces 850 hp. Power is sent to the rear wheels courtesy of a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.
The window sticker reveals that the car had an original MSRP of $576,056 and returns just 8 mpg in the city and 14 mpg on the highway. However, if you buy a car like this, you’re clearly not concerned with fuel economy.
