An iconic American supercar designed, developed, and hand-built entirely in the United States
Displays just 801. 9 miles on its odometer at the time of cataloguing
Saleen-designed, 7. 0-litre, naturally aspirated V-8 is rated by the factory for 550 horsepower
Capable of 0-100 km/ h in 3. 3 seconds with a top speed exceeding 320 km/ h
Equipped with a $26, 385 suspension, clutch, and shifter upgrade installed by Saleen
Finished in Saleen Silver over a cabin of black leather and grey suede
Presented in the marque’s quintessential livery of Saleen Silver over black leather, this S7 stands as a superb example of what Saleen claims to be America’s first true supercar—an audacious fusion of racing pedigree, advanced engineering, and dramatic design. Showing a mere 801. 9 miles at the time of cataloguing, it reflects exceptional preservation and careful, sparing use.
The S7’s sculptural carbon fibre bodywork is an engineering marvel that integrates fluid scoops, ducts, and aerodynamic channels to create Saleen’s signature Split-Channel Airflow system. This design directs air both over and under the car to enhance cooling, stability, and high-speed balance. At 257 km/ h the S7 is said to generate its own weight in downforce, a remarkable feat underscoring its technological sophistication. Beneath its fluid form lies Saleen’s proprietary 7. 0-litre all-aluminium V-8, factory rated at 550 horsepower and capable of 0–100 km/ h in 3. 3 seconds, with a top speed exceeding 320 km/ h.
Delivered new to New York City, this example notably received a $26, 385 suspension, clutch, and shifter upgrade carried out at Saleen’s facility in Irvine, California. Following the work’s completion, the car was purchased by the consignor and imported to France where it has remained under their careful curation since 2009.
A landmark in American performance history, the Saleen S7 brings together supercar theatrics with motorsport prowess—earning global acclaim that endures more than two decades later. Showing minimal use and documented factory upgrades, this example stands among the purest and most desirable expressions of the near-mythical Saleen.
