Or is Saleen Dead? With Steve out of the picture at Saleen and doing SMS and chebby's etc, and rumors of Saleen for Sale... Are we owners of a dying breed?
No rumor, Saleen IS up for sale
I have spoken to a few people and they believe that this year or last year will be the last year of the saleen. They have already discontinued their S331 project.
If saleen goes out of business, the only thing that will happen will be lack of parts for those of us that own one.
If saleen goes out of business your cars will worth MORE. I don't think saleen will go out of business. they put out too much of good cars there. I live in L.A so i go there to see the ultimate eye candy time to time(S7) and there are plenty of people buying stuff there I wouldn't worry so much.
Head down there and tell us what you find now. Saleen shut up shop in LA last year and moved their entire operation to Michigan. They then held auctions and sold all of their equipment in both LA and Michigan and now the company is officially for sale.
My bet is that by next summer, Saleen will be another orphan car like Hudson and AMC.
I'm glad you broke the news to him, i didn't have the heart to say anything....
