Dude, EVERYONE turns and stares at an S7. These things have such an amazing presence. Easily one of the most striking supercars ever produced.
2 years later, nobody has disagreed or argued. S7 & MC12 are only 2 cars I am 100% certain tears will be shed at 1st sight.
It literally looks like a prototype car it's insane
The S7.R is a BEAUTIFUL and Sexy looking race car! It could easily be the most beautiful ever made
@@alexnather7614 I can’t remember where I read this, but drivers of the S7.R described it as having downforce equivalent to that of a prototype, and behaves like a prototype. The car needs speed. When it is driven to and kept at the limit it was a very rewarding car to drive.
@@Deathlyill666My 2 favorites of all time, as well
And yes, spotting an S7 makes me tear up
The Saleen S7 is criminally underrated. I cannot believe how little it has been covered by automotive journalists.
In games as well, it just has not been done justice. It feels like it has *SO* much more to give, but never gets the chance. Love for the S7 from the UK! 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
Saleem proably wanted it quiet. Less dead rich guys wrapped around trees and telephone poles lol
@@HatelivesNextDoor Would that happen to be a stab at a certain film star in a certain red car?
@@lukasarron9498i also hoping Polyphony added this S7-R LMGT1 in Gran Turismo 7.
The last GT1 winning at Le Mans. Beautiful machine.
They do tho
In 2010?
Yes i can endurance world series only !
This car to me - is the American version of McLaren F1 GTR Longtail X)
Wouldn’t touch the McLaren
Robin Chamberlain how when the street version of the s7 had a top speed of 248mph?🤔
@@jonesvaughn8946 Well to be fair that one is the twin-turbo S7, which is still awesome I might add! But the stock S7 definitely has no chance against the McLaren F1 or the F1 GTR Longtail.
CrSnds 1986 yeah but even the twin turbo model is still a stock model it was just a newer model
@@jonesvaughn8946 You're absolutely right. No argument there. I just realized I made a wrong statement. Thanks for the correction my friend.
The sound of that car is just 👌😩
Watching this beautiful machine turn into corners is kind of amazing. You don't expect something that long and sleek to just flick in like that and stay planted.
BlackHawk TV During development Saleen did a huge amount of work on under-body aerodynamics. Steve Saleen was adamant that what happens to the air going under the car was much more important than what happens to the air going over the car. Hard to find pictures of the underbelly of this beauty though :( But you can see all the vents and cutouts for airflow around the wheel wells from this video and pictures elsewhere
Most underrated supercar of all time.
The first supercar I ever lusted over 😍😍💕
umm
I never expected this supercar to sound like a NASCAR Incredible! Love it!
427ci 7 liter Ford V8 Windsor. It was actually banned from nascar. lol.
Everyone's gangsta until the 7 litre v8 starts bellowing
The Saleen S7 always been my personal favorite car 😍
I remember seeing my first Saleen S7 live at Silverstone as a kid. I was mesmerised. It's been my dream car ever since.
*GTR2 chill*
Lovely V8 sound ❤️❤️❤️
570Hp I believe was the actual amount. Prob had 600hp though because LMP's sometimes couldnt get past them for awhile! Just a pure awesome machine!!
Unfff, favorite supercar on the planet, much in part due to its A E S T H E T I C S. Listen to that V8! It kinda has that Ford "tone" to it but carrying a great deal more power.
Brendan Ford --> The S7's engine is based on the 351 Windsor.
It actually is a Ford engine design
It's a Ford engine
I see one of these around town once in a while. Street version obviously. Gorgeous machine.
This engine sounds the best of all sports car engines.
Hi Bozzy.🙋 I just wanted to say thank you for putting this video together. You and your mates nailed this one, bro.👊 Perfect video of an American icon. After all these years, that deep, growling V8 is still pretty amazing. To be best appreciated, this one needs to be seen on a big screen and with headphones. The audio and video quality is absolutely beautiful... great work, Bozzy!🙌
TheMick26 Bozzy has the best audio quality on UA-cam, I think... 😃👍
R8andGT3Fan I agree 100%. We've definitely come to the right spot.😉
Hi Mick! thanks as always bro. Everytime I saw and old GT1 racer I'm always a bit sad and disappointed by the fact if I had started a couple of years before attending motorsport events, I would have seen these machines racing properly. Possibly my favorite modern racing series... But I can't be that sad since some owners and collectors are still using them! Wish you a great day ahead ;D
What an amazing race car! If I could have any car in the world, if I had 400,000 dollars, you can bet I would have a Saleen S7 Twin Turbo!
A true American dream sports car
C6.R, GTO-R and the S7-R are the best sounding cars in professional racing.
This Car is my Childhood favorite
That... is... LOUD!
Bozzy! Incredible footage! Next time you find one of these up on airjacks, see if you can get video of the underside of the car! Would love to see all the turning vanes and aero work, Saleen spent a lot of time developing it and the car looks so stable from aero. Great videos as always!
As a proud Saleen mustang owner i was so excited when the company debuted the Saleen S7. Already proud of Saleens efforts in racing with the Mustang, to see them pull off a class leading European style supercar was just a jaw dropper. It was something that even Top Gears Jeremy Clarkson which at the time so keen on bashing all things american automotive, could not dare to be seen presenting something that wouldve then crushed his beloved Ferrari Enzo. It wouldve been a very large american foot shoved in his mouth to bring that car on the television show. although he did in fact have one on their top gear traveling circus show. taking pains to calling it pornographic.
I remembered this iconic Saleen S7-R LMGT1 in R: Racing Evolution. Man this car even in 2024, still so underrated.
AMAZING Saleen!!!
The Beast !
Can't wait to see Saleen's new car in action on the track.
The best American Sportive car ever made so far!
Beautiful
Thank u so much bozzy I was about to ask for the vid of this car but u did it
No problem! ;)
For me this and the matech ford GT GT1 are the best sounding V8s of thr GT1 era
What about the Panoz GTR-1??... Yep, could feel it coming before you could hear it!
COPAMUND99 thanks for the reminder !! And sure the panoz to 💪💥
That upshift at 2:23 gave me chills
What a beast
RAW Power!
Love these car's Ford powerd
Now there's something special.
1:25 that downshift
Very cool car! Big muscle D:
If only they celebrated this car as much as they did with the Ford GT back in the early 2000s.
Were you at the wrc this year. I was as safety marschal for the first time. It was amazing.
Just a sexy machine
American muscle🇺🇸💪🏻
Definitely not muscle lol
I am still amazed that it runs on a Ford small block from 60 years ago (windsor family). Yes it's a new engine but it's basically the same as the one in GT40. The funniest thing is when in 2004 Ferrari decided to show off their new Maserati MC12 GT1 (racing version of Enzo Ferrari), the Saleen with with old GT40 engine beaten Maserati, and another 4 Ferrari's, crushing competition and winning the race at Ferrari home track. That day felt like ford vs ferrari all over again.
Long story short: it's an amazing racecar, but an abyssmal mean of transportation.
Would LOVE to see (and hear) it back in GT7, maybe accompanied by the mossler mt 900S
Your videos have made me want to be the American version of you also if you ever go to America hit up a dirt track and see sprint cars it is 1 of the coolest forms of racing in the world
I'll do it for sure! Thanks for the suggestion ;)
Great stuff as always bozz!
Thank you mate!
Nice 👍
My favorite car in rFactor
There ya go Bozzy. This made my day. Last US car to win LeMans. Did you use that super mic to record the sound? Did not quite have the impact like several other vids. Still awesome. Thanks.
BTW do you ever do WRC? Just curious.
No Brian, I used the "standard" stereo microphone of my camcorder. Thank you for watching ;)
I did 3 WRC events in the last two years: Monte Carlo 2017 and 2018 and the Germany WRC in 2017
19Bozzy92 you know a guy can actually hear the difference in the mics. The hill climb you first recorded with the hd mic was spectacular, same with Goodwood. Nice job with video clarity too. If you ever get a chance to post the WRC let us know. Crazy driving but highly skilled in those events. Thx for posting keep up the fantastic work.

This car looks a lot like a CLK-GTR mixed with the F1 GTR Longtail.
It’s such an unrecognized car even track reporters label it incorrectly, DB7, wrong.
It’s like a proper Rogers family cab, a 2016 Caymus…… smooth.
Yes! The 1st racecar (and supercar) I got to know. Had the poster in the bedroom and everything. It's great to see this out on track again and not as a dust collector.
STUPID!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, the car? Yes, it is "stupid" fast. Cheers :)
@@jasonhackett8137 this is a hypercar technically
Man when this thing storms past the hair on my arms goes up!! And this is just on the video! I'm wondering what would happen if I saw one of these IRL!!
I have 9 or 10 times racing on track & 1 on the reg road! It makes my hairs on my arms & legs stand straight up for awhile! The sound is amazing!
👍👍👍👍
Muscle
Why this car is so underrated??
Because americans made pick-ups, no supercars
@@quentinbottinelli2197 The S7 is a supercar, as is the SSC Ultimate Aero/Aero TT.
They've even made a hypercar. Hennessey Venom GT
@@quentinbottinelli2197 That's a lie, this car was a supercar. Your definitely be new to motor sports.
One hell of a rare car.. remember seeing it in Bruce Almighty when I was a kid and screaming at everyone I was watching it with “OH MY GOD ITS A FUCKING S7!!!”!
interesante
Regulations choked these cars down to give the Corvette's a fighting chance, before that they couldn't be touched just like the 2017 Ford GT LMGTE Pro.
Wow thanks you ***
Know i need New undies :(
If I closed my eyes and had no idea what car this was, I'd still know if was an American V8. Nothing sounds like em. On a good day I can tell the difference between Mopar, Chevy and Ford V8's. Especially the old school motors.
Sounds so awesome, but yet so lazy (in a good way). Sounds like it revs to about 5 (as in five), and starts putting torque out about 1.
I think it revs closer to 7.5k as it's maximum and retains it's power through 4-6. It's got a beefy engine so it's bound to be like that.
ジャマル Gojira_ I mean as in 5. As in I have 5 oranges not 5000.
Turbo V8 gives it so much power
Therefor giving the road going version a top speed of over 230 mph!!! America’s first supercar has a lot to offer!!
The road going cars had a lot of issues but they did better with the race car that's weird in my opinion
Ngl, having a stock car sound sounds a bit odd from a car that looks as exotic as it is. Wish it were just a little higher pitch. Still a gorgeous hypercar that I one day hope to own.
Seeing this in 50cent video
Restricted to 600HP. That's more than the normal S7. But about half the S7 Twin Turbskie
No it not the na s7 competition had over 700 hp they made only a few of them
they don't make cars like that anymore.
Twin turbo but the sound like muscle 😄 but i still like this car
Sounds like a jet
1:56 ommnommnomm :>
Okay, like, hear me out. What if a Ford Crown Victoria had that engine and septuple spoke wheels? Paint it lobster red and give it the same transmission....
...what would it be called?
Godbless America
Can u put The Ferrari F12 TDF in one of Ur compilation
And bozzy I love u from my heart
Sorry for the New Ford GT lovers... But this it's all the New Ford GT would be... Not a tiny ecoboost v6 whit half of displacement.
In my opinion, the real descendent or sucesor for the Ford GT.
1:56 ~ 5:38
it sounds like a muscle car that revving too high.
it is crossplane right?
Yes. It's a pushrod (OHV) 7.0L V8 derived from the Ford small block.
@@BDR_Photo SMALL block for a 7.0? Wtf America.
@@faranbutt180 because race car and weight reduction
This is what Lightning Mcqueen wished he were 😅
Who was driving the Car? The car as Portuguese sponsors...
Jacop Frank was ddriving the ccar during the event. But I think he kept the old Graham Nash Motorsport livery used in 2003 (with most of the sponsors) when the three Portuguese Chaves, Ramos and Amorim were behind the wheel ;)
Great to see that the new onwer kept that livery the car... Pedro, Ni Amorim and Ramos should be pround of that... Thank you Bozzy 😉 Congrutulations and continue the Great Work 😉
Was that a Ferrari at 2:02?
This ran so the late Gen Ford GT and C8 vette could sprint
God dammit, why did GT3 have to take off.
TheRooster94 Because money.
I prefer GT3 anyway
1st gen of GT3 is ALMOST as great as GT1 (Gallardo, Viper CC, DBRS9, Ford GT, Corvette, Ascari, Morgan, F430, Trofeo Light)
Its cheaper, gte is pretty much as fast as these cars now though
Say what you want about this car, words cannot describe how threatening it is. It rivaled the Veyron in terms of top speed.
You heard me right. A schmuck that tuned mustangs built a car that could rival Bugatti.
OOF
This sounds better than the C7.R Corvette
Alexander Healy it actually use a corvette engine
Fast Pinoyzz do the research it uses a corvette engine
Fast Pinoyzz that's for the current C7.R. When the S7.R raced, it raced against the C6.R GT1 which used an LS7. That was a 7.0L engine.
But no way in hell it sounds better than the C7.R
Ariel Zelada true
Made in Murica
American McLaren F1 but not that good:)
Can you record old Lamborghini Diablo GT1?
I would record it for sure! Just need to have a bit of luck in the future ;)
😷
With that displacement a v12 would be much smarter and sound better but each to their own i guess
It had a 7l V8 from a Ford. Besides they mostly (if not only) modify Ford cars and a V12 isn't American enough.
F1 GTR Long tail Wannabe
not quite
What is saleen
a car manufacturer
Not a car manufacturer more like performance house that has its own cars
They're know from modified mustangs
Come i V8 Ferrari ad albero piatto non ve ne è... solito big block americano, degno di un camion, non di una macchina da corsa...
Non concordo affatto mi dispiace. È quello che rende un'auto americana, Americana.
