Detroit 2011: Mach 7 Falcon in the assault of large exotic

The Falcon does become the next great American sports car after the Viper? That's probably the dream that feed on Jeff and Carl Lemke, who founded Motorsports Mach 7. A subsidiary of AP Engineering (Propeller for Advance Engineering Inc.)., an equipment specialist for the Dodge Viper of Holly, Michigan, unveiled its first car in High Performance Auto Show in Detroit last week. It is known as Falcon.

This mid-engined two-seater coupe is distinguished by its elegant silhouette and original, designed to announce to all road users, "let me pass! . "The aesthetics of the Falcon is the result of an artistic creation, not of aerodynamic research, " admits Carl Lemke, who explained that the car apparencede outweighed its functionality at the time of its creation.

This figure would have also been inspired by the shapes of the American F-16 Fighting Falcon General Dynamics - hence its name. However, one can not help but recall the Gumpert Apollo, looking at the front of the car, but the Ferrari F50, because of its rear part.

A carbon fiber body contributes greatly to preserve the lightness of the car, which weighs less than 1300 pounds. This body clothes a hydroformed chassis steering and suspension, aluminum shocks with adjustable KW and disc brakes Stop-Tech.
