Falcon F7 – A $225,000 Hand Built Supercar
The F7’s exterior design drew its general inspiration from the 1980s-era supercars, while it rides on a unique tig-welded aluminum chassis with an integrated carbon fibre structural tunnel, as well as carbon fibre reinforced floor pan, firewall and body panels.
The mid-mounted V8 engine and most parts of the suspension are sourced from the Corvette. The naturally aspirated 7.0-litre V8 LS7 is rated at 620 horsepower and 585 lb ft of torque.
Depending on the configuration, Falcon says that the F7 can go from zero to 60 mph in 3.3 to 3.6 seconds, and reach a top speed of 190 to 200 mph.
Production of the F7 Series 1 is limited to ten units.
