It?s hard to imagine that the American produced Saleen S7 actually went into production exactly 10 years ago, and its theoretical performance figures are still the envy of many automotive manufacturers around the world.

Featuring a massive 7.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the S7 could pump out 750 horsepower when it was new, and launch to 62 mph in just 3.2 seconds despite being rear-wheel drive. Saleen claimed that the S7 could hit a top speed of 248mph which could have made it the fastest production car in the world, but for some unknown reason, the American company never took it to the absolute limits.

ADV.1 Wheels joined forces with AE Performance to perform the upgrade and it?s suspected that AE performed some minor tweaks to the car?s engine, although no details have been released about that.[...]

We are here to show you one of the latest developments of US aftermarket developer Forgiato Wheels, which has been out playing with a Ford Thunderbird Conv... [...]
