Are you comparing the Saleen to an '02 LSI (350hp) Vette (or any Vette for that matter)??? Vette's are two-seaters with plastic/fiberglass bodies, so they weigh at least 300 lbs. less. Two different animals entirely.
I remember seeing somewhere that the '06 Saleen SC convertible was the fastest 4-seater convertible you buy stock (i.e., off a dealer floor with no mods) under $100k, aside for the Extreme. That was 4 model years ago, during which engines have only become more powerful and efficient, so I don't know if that's still the case for the 2010 model year.
