They're going to put another 250 horses in the S7? Wow! As if that thing needed more horsepower. I bet that would put it in the sub-2 second 0-60s as long as you could control the traction.

yeah, the current S7 TT is pushing only 5 psi non-intercooled. in motor trend a while back they quoted Steve Saleen saying they would eventually offer and intercooled version with more boost and 1000HP
EDIT: I just read from a Saleen posting that they now offer the 1000HP package as an option.......sweeeet.

What about this? The SVS Stryker Viper TT. Cool paint job. Oh and it recently made 1725 horsepower...at the wheels....with more left in it...yeaaaaahhhhh. Probably the most powerful street driven car on earth. 8.4@174mph in the quarter, 247mph top end...and that was before the last dyno run.

As fast and advanced as the Enzo is, it was one godawfully ugly supercar. Especially considering it in comparison to the F40 and F50.

For me, the only car that comes immediately to mind is the F1. If I think for awhile, I like all of the TVR's, and if I had to get a Ferrari it would be the 360 Challenge Stradale, or the 288 GTO.

From the land of the rising sun, only the Zanardi edition, Type-S Zero or Type-R II NSX will do.
