Shady used car add

2003 Saleen S7 for sale

To me, this looks like a bunch of photos of a model car.

Anyone else agree?

Heck, every car in their inventory looks fake

Is this an April Fool's add????

I was expecting all the pictures to have gone through one of those dumbass instagram filters that makes the edges all blurry.

Looks real to me, but the video is certainly cheesy.

yeah, I spent more time on their website, and I guess they are real, but also real bad at interior and under the hood pictures. Very strange video on their dealer info; about us page.

Looks like a company started by a bunch of rich 18-year-olds.

I agree about the saleen pictures. It looks like a model set up.

Am I the only one trying to figure out why anyone would be shopping for an S7 among all of the supercars choices out there?

I dunno. Seems like a pretty badass car. Depends on the price, but I'd hit it.

Maybe Jim Carrey just ruined it for me in that "God Almighty" movie.

$259k for this one.

Okay, yeah, for $250k, NFW. I was thinking maybe they were down near $100k by now
