Default Smashed mustangs?

Hey guys i'm new to the fourms and i'm looking to pick up a Roush, Saleen or Cobra... Whats the average prices on these vehicles and does anyone know where I could pick up or find a smashed one? Any websites out there or companies?

Thanks

the only smashed ones that i see being sold are on ebay. you will not find a smashed cobra yet because they are not out yet. although this sounds like a joke, i am actually serious. a smashed roush or saleen would probably be really mess up.. i remember my dealer telling me that the only saleen that he sold was completely destroyed along with a dead driver within 2 days of him selling in

Why buy one already smashed?

MUCH more fun to Smash it yourself...

Well.. actually NOT all THAT much fun... I cry when I get a scratch on my Mustang... I might kill myself if I actually HURT the thing!

I hear you prof. Looking at my baby like this brought tears to my eyes but I won't sell her.

As a matter of fact I love my baby so much I bought her a new set of 20" shoes to go along with her new yet to be installed Tokico D-Specs and Eibach Pro kit. She's been in the shop since January 9 and hope to get her soon.

Too many options to say an average price. Saleen S281 ~$40-45K S281-SC ~$50-55K S281-E not out yet but ~$65K. I'm not a Roush expert but Stage I ~ $35K, and Stage II ~ same as S281. Looks like their SC is an aftermarket add on only. Their are some Roush experts in here that can correct me on this

Can't answer your question about the Cobra because it is not out yet!! But good luck getting your hands on one - dealers will no doubt be giving it the Ford GT treatment [:@]

There was a smashed up S281 that sold on Ebay about two months ago for $16K. Going to take a lot of work to put it back together. Search back a couple pages in the Saleen/Roush section and you'll see it.
