Falcon introduced its production version of the Falcon F7 at the 2012 North American International Auto Show, which follows after a great response to its Falcon F7 concept showcased at the 2011 Detroit auto show.
For those who don't know, Falcon F7 is produced by Falcon motor sports and it's based out of Michigan. The company is known for making body modification kits and structural components for manufacturers like Plymouth in their Prowler and Dodge’s Viper.
The Falcon F7 design is inspired from the 1980's era of super cars, the dramatic design with flowing curves and sharp cuts to meet the demand of the wind tunnel. Many people confuse the car with a Ferrari or Lamborghini and it certainly is an attention getter.
This Falcon F7 is placed in the same segment as exotic GT cars, but it has carved its own niche with features that are seen in much more expensive handcrafted cars. These features include carbon fiber body, monocoque chassis made of carbon fiber/aluminum, handcrafted interiors, billet suspension and exceptional power-weight ratio.
The handcrafted interiors exude quality and one can't help but appreciate the attention to detail. The car is very roomy from inside, from supercar standards and can easily accommodate tall drivers.
Engine Performance
The Falcon F7 is powered by a 7-liter V8 that churns out 620 horsepower. The engine responds with a linear elasticity to give the true joy of driving. The engine has been mated to a 6-speed manual transmission based on a design by Ricardo, world's one of the most premium transmission manufacturer.
The company has planned to sell 15 of these in the 1st year of production and more than 25 in the 2nd year and then slowly increasing it in the subsequent years.
