F7? Looks like an S7. amirite!?
Seriously does remind me of a Saleen. Maybe a Zenvo? Curious if it's any good. Or real. Lots of "approximately" in their specs.

Well, its not popular/well-known enough to have a page on wikipedia....and apparently Holly, MI is 35 minutes from where I live, though I can't find a address for them on their site.

Yeah, I went to it. But I've noticed that if a company has a name, or is a bit popular, they have a wikipedia page. For example, one of my favorite bands is Twelve Gauge Valentine . They are amazing, but they never made it big, despite being on a popular record label. They have no wikipedia article. Its one of those bands that was/is under-appreciated, so not too many people know about them.
With that gauge, I looked into Falcon, but it wasn't well-know enough to have an article. They seem to be small still. But compared to Equus , who is relatively unknown but still has an article. I don't know, it was something I noticed....

Hot diggity-dog, found the address , it was on the site too! So it's about a 40-some minute drive from me. Taking into account that Google Maps is off with it's indexes, its in the area. Strangely enough, it seems a different company resides at that location, a AP Engineering Services. It has too much web traffic right now so I can't access the site to link to it. Still curious. Also, there phone # listed is a landline in either Holly, MI or Kazakhstan.
Suspicious.....
Edit: ah, work won't let me access the AP Engineering Services page. The message it gives is this: "This website presents a higher than normal possibility of carrying malware or security threats that could affect your computer, device....", so a heads up. Suspicious again....

I'm listening to a webcast right now, so I have really nothing else to do...
Anyways, apparently the property was sold , as to 'when', I can't tell. I looked up AP Engineering Services via my iphone (malware tends to target Windows, and probably not the iOS), the web site is down and up for sale. So the AP Services could of been the company that was at the commercial land before it was sold. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt there. Though the phone # is the same between Falcon and AP, which I think is weird.
This website has pics of the cars, but under the tenant tab, the business type is "Machine tools, metal cutting type", which is still weird.
My thoughts? The property was recently sold, because this site says "this property is no longer for sale". So they either developed a super car in a short amount of time, or they had another place of operation.
There's also this article from 2013. Where the only car was an orange one, with the video showing a silver car, so there's at least two, or one was repainted.
......is there anyone from Holly that can investigate for us? I'm full of curiosity now, and since Google Maps doesn't have streetview, I can't confirm if there even is a physical building there. Come one guys, don't make me drive up there just to check it out!
