Oh, for anyone who doesn't know what s7 is, here's a link: http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/saleen_s7.asp

This is a lot of money for a car anyway, I'm sure these cars are only produces on order basis or something of that sort (ala some lambos and fearraris). I wonder how much it'd cost to fix a scratch on a $500k car. lol
