Cool Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

Wow! That thing is mean looking!! 650 horsepower!!! I can't wait to see it next week!!!
The naming scheme is confusing, seeing as Audi now has an S5. But i like the the "Raptor" name!

p.s. I would put it in the NYIAS coverage.

Re: Saleen S5S Raptor

Yup, i like the Raptor name too. The Lamborghini used this, (or Zagato) in their Concept around 1996 or so.

Re: NYIAS 08: Saleen S5S Raptor

It has a very Lambo feel to it IMO, especially in that yellow color.
