I suppose the badge could have been removed/stolen from the dash. How about the firewall - there should be a metal plaque on the engine bay, and there should be a Saleen Mfr sticker on the drivers side door sill right by the Ford sticker. As for the painted door trim, the S281's did not get painted inserts but the S351's did.

I am buying a 2000 Saleen Coupe this weekend. I'm pretty sure it's real but if you guys can help me double check. It's a 2000 Saleen coupe

Yep - as cobracars stated above. Unfortunately the registry does not offer any other info than that (color, etc.....)The stock hp for these cars was 285 w/315 ft lbs of torque. Typical laundry list of suspension and appearance upgrades.
If you buy it, make sure you get EVERYTHING available for it (window sticker, Saleen letter of authencity, Saleen owners manual etc.....). If those things are not available (shame on the previous owner/s) then contact Team Saleen at Saleen, Inc. for help with those things.
Oh yeah, in 2000 there were a total of 979 Saleen Mustangs built with 307 of them being n/a coupes. MSRP on the n/a coupe was $33,900

Thanks sowaxeman. I just pick-up the Saleen...the seller did not have the Saleen letter of authencity, Saleen owners manual and window sticker. I will try to get them from Team Saleen. Finally I got myself a Saleen.
