SMS 570X at the L.A. Auto Show

SMS 570X at LA Auto Show.jpg   

We saw Steve Saleen's nasty (i.e., either wicked or tacky, depending on your perspective) SMS 570X at the 2009 L.A. Auto Show yesterday -- surrounded by the displays of Fisker, Spyker, and Aston!

The 570X debuted at this year's New York Show and uses a 6.0-liter Hemi coupled to a Saleen supercharger, resulting in a claimed 700 hp.

The 570X starts at around $85K.

The display said SMS will only make 500. Does that mean this car is number 17 of the bunch?

700 HP? Great...now it's faster on a straight line but becomes suicidal around corners with that much power.
