Falcon F7 - American supercar

The Falcon F7 is possibly the meanest looking car I have seen. It uses an LS7 motor, carbon fiber body, and is built right in the Motor City. I had the chance to ride and film this incredible car, so you can see/hear it from many different angles. Amazing machine!

Nice, but the design seems to lack an original look to me. The side profile screams Ferrari, the front looks like a cross between a Nissan GT-R and a Lexus LFA, and the interior didn't look very homy. 680hp out of a NA LS7 is nice though.

+1

It definitely screams Ferrari 355/360 on the side profile and the rear window is very 1972 Ferrari Dino-esque...The interior leaves a lot to be desired and for the $200k-$250k price, I would rather have a Ferrari 458 Italia or California. Nice exterior design, but too much like other exotics and the interior needs help...I do like the rear stance.

Someone obviously admired the f40 growing up. The interior is truly awful though, and for i'm guessing how much this costs I'd rather have a real f40.

I think the exterior is really good looking.

The interior is seriously lacking though. My Trans Am's looks more luxurious and put together than that.

Headlights look a bit weak.

I think it's sexy as fawk. I love how the roll bars behind the seats are visible. That car would put me in prison.

I agree with people saying it looks like a kit car. Its just a tad bit over done in the wrong ways. I don't love the interior but I do like it. At $200,000k if I had anywhere near that money to drop on a super car, I wouldn't be buying this. I'd rather get a lambo.

I have seen it before and I do like it, but it reminds me of a car from GTA or something.

I do like the exterior of the car it is nice to look at and alot different so it would stand out more. But that interior is just a whole mess of blah. It does sound pretty beastly though. I think a Top Gear Uk review is in order lol.

And 200k for a tubular chassis and a carbon fiber body kit car with an LS7? You can build a FFR GTM for half that if you want to go that route. If you're going to spend 200-250k though, a lot more established car manufacturers out there, some with a prancing horse, some with a running bull, and some with a ton of their F1 winning technology packed in to their street cars that don't look like they came out of my garage.
