Saleen S5S Raptor Concept Debuts

If Americans designed it than it is American in design. America has never really made super cars like this before except foe the S7. So I am confused as to what people think American super cars styling is supposed to be.

But thats the whole point...the design of an american super car is up in the air, but a design like this, though american, only exemplifies italian ideals. If you look at chrysler's offering couple years back, or even that v16 cadillac they made, those were quite "american". No matter, we have a winner here and americans should be proud to call it their own...cause it kicks any lambo square in the nutters...even the new lp540 (or 60??? meh...)

Thank you....finally somebody noticed!!! its the nsx back that the hsc concept should've had. Even the front lights on this raptor looks like an elongated version of the hsc's. Not to mention the equally sculpted wheel arches...

GM has a plant in Mount McKinley (AKA Denali)? How honourable they are for naming a generic work truck after the nation called "Cheyenne" by a race of people Americans spent a good part of their early history mercilessly slaughtering! When the Italians use the locality method to naming their vehicles, there is purpose deeper than, "because it sounds good and fits the car's image." Likewise, those muscle car names you just listed off are indeed all "big, resonant names" because they were designed to be -- which incidentally does not make them original. It's shallow and, like I said, without rhyme or reason. Damn, this is a very stupid argument with very little significance; all I wanted to say was "S5S Raptor" is a name about as uninspired as the design of the car itself.

i happen to like american car names but yes...raptor is pretty cheesy. and that "S5S" just look like 3 "s"'s...i'm trying to think of a name right now...but all i can think of is how stupid japanese names are...i mean come on, civc?? matrix??....tundra is pretty cool though...oh ohoh...how about real names....the S5S Felicity...hahahaha....god....i need a coffee
