1st, you can stop typing each word in all caps. Second, I would forget the Saleen, go find an 03/04 cobra and add a KB or Whipple. It is a much better way to spend that kind of money IMO.

I have noticed the Saleens are not holding their value very well. And with the arrival of the new GT500 for 39,000, that will put the Saleens in further decline. Great cars, but the demand is not that great for the Saleens.

I traded my 2001 S281-SC convertible for my 2004 S281-SC coupe last August at Capital Ford in Raleigh, NC. They gave me $22,000 as for my trade-in (and reluctant). They initially wanted to give me $20,000.

I've currently got my car for sale on PAS' website. I have a local guy who saw it on there and already looked at it. He seems serious and sounds like he is willing to give me my $38,000 asking price. It is going to be for his wife, supposedly.

I paid $19,000 for my '02 281 Coupe with 11,000 on the odometer. As far as the new one goes, I would be happy with the previous body style. Just take care of it and in years people will appreciate it moreso. I believe what hurts them these days is the fact that more are made. But hell who really cares I plan to keep mine for years and years. I will pull it out in 10-20 years and break more necks than the 2025 Saleens that will be out then!
