I can't get into specifics about the cost of such things, but it was not cheap.
Here are some interior refinements in the upcoming F7's. A new shift gate helps keep things simple and keeps with the billet theme.
So long conventional radio system, here is a sneak peek at the new center console layout for the F7. The more ergonomic billet switch panel now utilizes an exclusive Iphone operated head that powers a 6 speaker, 1 subwoofer high power system for a quality sound.
The Iphone controls all radio stations, GPS, pandora, personal music library, hands free phone operation and more. An ipod can replace radio and personal music library for non-Iphone users.
Finishing some of the street tuning using the stock cam (more aggressive cams are installed on most Falcons). Using pump gas, car pulled over 515 rwhp. Only custom modification on car shown is twin plenum intake. That converts to about 610 HP which is not bad considering the high performance cam has not yet been installed. Yes, a 1000 twin turbo version is also available.
I guess I was a little distracted with work when this thread started and I just found it last night. All I can say is STUNNING. I think you have created what, to me, may be one of the most beautiful cars on the road. I feel like I did the first time I saw the Cobra. And the fact that is is American made is icing on the cake. Now just don't go all Shelby on us so someone can make a replica of it that I can afford
The car looks simply amazing. You did it in what appears to be record time. Congrats!
I absolutely love the rear end and it's impressive craftsmanship. You got the right ratio/size of the taillights that I feel like this is what the C7 corvette should have used for the rear end.
I agree. I believe GM would be crazy to not buy this design off of you for their future Vette offerings. The mid engine thing is only a matter of time, and your design blows theirs out of the water. It is STUNNING!
I was really hoping that the C7 would be a street version of the Daytona Prototype running in Grand-Am. The design they came up with is beautiful but strayed too far for me with too much Nissan/Camaro/Ferrari. This however is even better than what I envisioned for the Vette. The C6 Z06 is one of my favorite street car,but the Falcon makes it look positively pedestrian. It captures the essence of some great designs (like the 288 GTO, also a personal fave) with trying to emulate them.

We never did end up using the G96. All cars built utilized a Recardo 6-spd. Those are getting hard to come by and service parts are also scarce. We will be switching to a new gearbox soon. More details when we make our decision.

If the number of boxes you need to buy makes a difference in which box you choose, some of us are still looking for better box options. Volume seems to dictate price, so an outlet for additional units may help your cause.

Computer graphics cards and screens can give different color renderings. Two different computers can display the color differently. I would love to see the car in person.
