The 2012 Mach7 Motorsports Falcon F7
 
A Fairly Affordable American Supercar




 
 
     You've likely never heard of Mach7 Motorsports. If so don't worry because I haven't either until now. The car I'll be writing about is called the Falcon F7. It is entirely possible this car is based on a Corvette body given the way it looks.
     The Falcon F7 is a front-engine (possibly rear-wheel drive) supercar equipped with a 7 liter V8 engine that is coupled to a 6-speed transaxle that combined deliver a good 620 hp @ 6,600 rpm and a maximum torque of 585 lb-ft at 5,400 rpm. Top speed is either 190 or 200 mph and can get to sixty in a good 3.3 seconds. 
     The Falcon F7 is also equipped with a fully independent pushrod type suspension that has CNC machined aluminum billet rockers, coil-over dampers with external reservoirs, and last but not least, hydraulically assisted, Bosch anti-lock components and electronic systems.
     The entire body of the Falcon F7 is made of carbon fiber combined with an aluminum/carbon fiber monocoque chassis that will keep the car's weight at 2,785 lbs.
     The tires used on the Falcon F7 are Michelin high performance tires.    
     The cost of a Falcon F7 in the United States range from $195,000 to $250,000 which is almost Ferrari 458 Italia and McLaren MP4-12C money.
     In terms of price, looks, performance, practicality, and powwweeeeerrrr I must give the Mach7 Motorsports Falcon F7 a 10 out of 10. Good job America.
