Well this guy claims it is real i do not thinks so. So since there are many experts in this forum let me know what you guys think. He says he has checked the vin# though Saleen and it matches, and he also said they removed the factory Super Charger and Wheels and (Glove Box) ID plate.

While out at the Saleen Club of America Winterfest a couple years ago I saw this Saleen at Sir Tehar (Denver area Saleen dealer).

It is real.

It is not my cup of tea.


off topic --> Cory, are you back "stateside"?

It looks like it was a theft recovery or something along those lines. It is missing other parts such as the c-pillars! Its value can only be based on what a GT is worth due to all the things that would have to be repaired to put it back factory.

.

It actually has the Saleen "C" pillars on the car, but due to the way it was painted, it does not look that way.

Good idea about theft recovery. That would make total since on why its missing the wheels and supercharger. Could also be a crack addicts car and they pawned all the good *****. Who in their right mind would trade Saleen's for those ugly ass wheels?

sure, if the guy wants to sell/value this as a REAL SALEEN, then he should replace the Saleen specific parts. Either that or sell it at salvage/recovery value.
