    McLaren and Maybach parts are quite good. Caddy and Ford GT are blah, though. S7 is blah too, as of now.

    Basically, when the owners comment on their car, it's great, when the marketing crap is served on a silver plate ... it's annoying. The S7 is more and more annoying "This is the first blah blah, this is the best blah blah ..." blah blah blah blah. Steve, if you read this, you fail. He just said it's the fastest production car. BS again. A shame. No credibility whatsoever. Go back to selling Rustangs, BEEOTCH!!!

    But the McLaren and Maybach parts are awesome.

    black Enzo on right now ... niiiiice!!!!

    All in all, a pretty damn good show.

    Thanks for the heads-up.

    How about that segment on the Saleen S7?
    The engineer claims it to be unique among road cars by having a completely flat bottom. Uhh... never looked under a modern Ferrari, eh? In fact, the Enzo, CS, and 360 top that by adding Venturi tunnels into the flat bottom.

    Its a shame that all they show is it cruising gently down the highway. Sheesh... if I'm Mr. Saleen, I'd have given them nothing but loud acceleration and hard braking and hard cornering to choose from for footage.

    great stuff. The narrator made a mistake though, he said 650 horsepower instead in 660.

    The Enzo and F1 took the show… The Saleen S7 is a nice looking car, but I could never respect it simply because they use a S/C Ford V8.

    This show will re air tomorrow at 1AM eastern time and the 21st at 3PM eastern.

    On another note:
    The "hosts" didn't add much to the show and I don't think the people associated with the show were really car guys. Did they say that the S7 could reach 240mph. I don't think that is right. Also the Ferrari guy said something that didn't register. I think he was talking about the Carbon Fiber but said something about Kevlar or something. Also I liked the Carbo Ceramic brakes. Good show though.

    That was great... When he said 650 it showed 660 in white on the screen... The F1 part was the best of the show... The camera angles and footage were awesome, and the sound was intoxicating. To think I've stood inches away from the owner of it and not had the balls to talk to him. The orange hummer that he has kinda makes me scratch my head though...

    The Enzo and the F1 sounded the best. The Ford and S7 sounded like a mustang with exhaust. Sad, since I really like the S7.
