suspension defeat the likes of the E 63 AMG & Audi RS 7 Sportback? While I was busy looking at the NSX, I heard a quick siren, and I rushed to figure out what was going on. At the auto show, they had a parade of a few cars that would go around the main floor a couple times each day. The lineup consisted of an Aston Martin V8 Vantage, Jaguar FType V6 S, Ferrari California, Corvette Stingray, and Falcon F7. The Falcon was the car that everyone was talking about, primarily because nobody sees it. I recorded the car starting up and rolling, and it sounded THROATY! Falcon F7: It’s built in Michigan. It weighs under 3000 lbs. It’s midengined. It’s rear wheel drive. It is claimed to make over 1000 HP from its twin-turbo V8. It’s loud. And it costs just under US$300,000. Expensive? Yes. But there’s a reason why it stands out: nobody knows about this American supercar.
