2013 Falcon F7
Falcon Motorsports is an American[1][2] manufacturer of high performance automobiles, most notably the Falcon F series Falcon F5 and Falcon F7.
The Michigan-based[3] company was founded in 2009 by American automotive designer and engineer Jeff Lemke.[4][5]
A prototype was first shown to the public at the 2010 North American International Auto Show.[6]
In 2012, Falcon presented the production version of the Falcon F7 to the international automotive press. This was the company's inaugural vehicle.[7] The F7 is a mid engine rear-wheel-drive two seat sports car with a monocoque chassis built from aluminum, carbon fiber and Kevlar.[8][9] In its base configuration the car is powered by a naturally aspirated 427 cubic inch all aluminum dry-sump V8 (LS7-derived), delivering between 620 and 680 hp which enables the 2,750 lb. car to accelerate from a standstill to 60 mph in 3.3 - 3.6 seconds.
The company later introduced an evolution model of the Falcon F7 that utilizes forced induction, i.e. a twin turbo system on its 427 cubic inch V8, bringing the output of the car to 1,100 hp to the wheels. This version will accelerate from 0–60 in 2.7 seconds.[10]
The powertrain was developed in co-operation with Lingenfelter Performance Engineering.[11][12]
The Falcon F7 supercar received critical attention from automotive enthusiasts, test drivers and journalists,[13][14][15][16][17] but the company were only ever to build seven examples,[18] one of which was profiled in episode 19 of the second season of Discovery's TV show How it's Made: Dream Cars.[19][20][21]
