Saleen hard to find

Hi all!

I want to buy a Saleen S281 with no Supercharger this summer and bring it to spain, the reason i want the saleen is because i love it and its the best looking stang out there, but i wont race it so i need something not very expensive.

Is it hard to find a used 06-07-08 Saleen S281 for about $35k ? im looking for something with not many miles on it.

Im also willing to buy a GT and add a Saleen Body kit, is it hard to find? where can i find one?

Will the car look "Real" with the kit installed or it will look strange?

Thanks for any help u can give me

CYA!

You can find an S-197 N/A Saleen from 2005, 2006 maybe 2007 in your range. The '05s and '06s are falling under 30K now.

Do an http://www.autotrader.com search. Also do dealer searches for new and leftover Saleen inventory.

For used: Look at www.performanceautosport.com. Look at http://www.saleenls.com .

I'm a fan of the scenic top, this gets my eye: http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/car/557285179.html

Or you can get into an S/C http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/car/558455207.html

Good luck out there!

p.s. Talk to Pati at Team Saleen before you purchase. http://www.saleen.com/membership_info.htm

Are you looking to have it for $35k with shipping and all the taxes or before that?

At that price you shouldn't have much trouble.

RE: Saleen hard to find

White with chrome rims will be a tough find as most of the white cars were storm troopers (white on white). But you could always have them dipped, or for less money you could buy a set of OE Wheels replicas for less than $1000.
