Saleen has been going out of business for almost 10yrs. It's sad really. That sort of specialty market has dried up.

 

[Mike K]

Sad for sure. They make the best looking stangs.

 

[Wicked GT]

Ouch!

 

[fdjizm]

probably where the problem started...

 

[Wicked GT]

Even the model thinks its hideous... look at her face!

They've had issues for a long time. If I'm not mistaken, he sold off his parts side of the business because of financial issues years ago.

 

[JEWC_Motorsports]

Dont worry, even their paying customers never receive their cars.

 

[weather man]

He's went through banco a couple of times.

 

[Sactown]

The problem is they just want too much money for their cars.

 

[PNR Welding]

I guess I can wipe that Steve Saleen signature off my dash now.
People always ask me who it was that signed my car.

Sad to see it though cause they made some decent mustangs.

 

[brent_G]

always liked saleens mustangs.

 

[o2sys]

Ahh not again...

are those supposed to be functional butterflies on the vent? kind of like the functional butterflies mustangs were supposed to get but were never sent out?

they arent half bad looking imho

I never knew that Saleen made a Camaro. EPIC FAIL!

It is sad. The fox body Saleen Mustang's are still some of the coolest Mustangs of all time IMHO.

I mean, how sweet is this bad boy?

 

[MADGT]

Saleen Camaro = oxymoron....or just moron.

 

[hamish]

Moron

+1 I believe this is the problem too.

They were nice in the 90's but they seem to have lost their way

One of the things about Saleens is unless it is a very special model the resale is terrible.

I bought my 2006 S281SC for not much more than you could find a stock GT and it listed for almost 60K when it was new with the options it had. Base price for an 06 S281SC was like 54K. I like my car but its not worth that much compared to a standard GT.

Sure is sexy though.
