The Saleen S7, American’s first production supercar developed jointly by Saleen, Hidden Creek Industries, Phil Frank Design, and Ray Mallock Lt. with RML, debuted at the Monterey Historic Races. From 2000 until 2004, the S7 featured a naturally aspirated 550 hp V8 engine. In 2005, the S7 was replaced by the S7 Twin Turbo, which featured a more powerful twin-turbo system that boosted engine power to 750 hp and the top speed to an estimated 200 miles per hour (402 km/h).
