Oh no. If I am not mistaken the MSRP on the car is around $700K out the door - with no options.

Yeah. That's one reason that they never really sold well.

To buy one, you had to put $100K down before they would even start the process.

But they're somewhat more affordable in the used (if you can find one) market. There's a guy down the road from me that has a beautiful one. And they're so ridiculously fast!!! Really, a gorgeous carbon fibre beauty. He also owns the Edo Modified MC12 beside it there, and he drives them both a TON!!!! It wouldn't surprise me if he has more miles on his MC12 than ALL the other MC12's in North America COMBINED!!!

Great information Pro!

I've seen an S7 a couple of years ago, didn't know they were rare, I just knew it was expensive. It was in a valet spot around the corner from where I live now.

Honestly, the S7 reminds me of the SSC Ultimate Aero- a giant kit supercar.

Wow impressive! I absolutely love that S7 TT competition, dont remember the number but they haven't built that many of them, 5 or something like it... Would love to see more pics if you have.

There are just too many better options in that price range.
I beg to differ. I cannot name one car in that price range that is better.
For ~$750,000 you get 1035bhp, 2800lbs, and enough downforce to drive upside down at 150mph.

It will smoke a Veyron in the standing mile, have near the top speed of the Veyron SS, but all the while it will lap a track as fast as a Gumpert Apollo S. It can do everything a Koenigsegg can do and everything a Gumpert Apollo can do. And then some.
And it doesn't lack luxury or quality.

Seen a few around the detroit area over the years. This was the first 'supercar' that I really fell in love with.
