....well, from what I have heard, The Saleen Store grand opening is two days away and that test drive a Saleen: get hat and shirt thing is valid. But then again, this is Saleen were're talking about, so the shirt and hat is probably on back order for six months because they owe that vendor money too.........

Thats what I was afraid of!!!!!! We have 3 at our local dealer! A red and grey non supercharged and a light green one supercharged in the showroom! All hardtops! Mark

Mark, did you have to sign a letter of intent before you drove the car? I went to a Saleen dealer here before but they wanted me to sign a letter of intent before I could drive the car. I'm just wondering if they still require such a thing or was it just the dealership itself?

Didn't have to sign a letter! Mark

George, I wrote to Saleen asking them about the Parnelli Jones edition. Jeff Clark wrote me back and told me they are going to make 500 of them and they have 350 orders so far! I also then signed up for there e-mail news letter! Thats when they sent me the test drive info! I wouldn't mind having the PJ edition since I was only 16 in 1970 and my folks wouldn't co sign for a new one! I really wanted a grabber blue one! Maybe I can get one now if business would get a little better! Mark

Saleen sent me the hat and tee-shirt offer via e-mail. So, I printed out a few of those offers and took them to my local Saleen dealer. Since we've bought quite a few Saleen's from them we didn't have to actually test drive any of the cars (we already have an '05). As a result, they just signed the dealer section of the offer and that was it!

Mark, seems you and I are close to the same age! I was 14 in 1970 so I guess you got me by 2 years. I'd love to have a PJ car or even a new S/C 06 but I still would die for an S351! I just have to get the Harley paid for first!!!

 

[s351rspeedster]

I still would die for an S351!

.....sell the harley!!! There a dime a dozen anyways.
I'll give you a screaming deal on a little white / blue 95 for the inconveinence of selling the hog.....

 

[Mark Cubberley]

George, You need to think about that offer! When we go to the show in Calhoun and Chattanooga we can park next to each other! 2 -S 351 R-Codes! That would be neat! Mark

 

[saleen065]

Oh how that sounds like a deal. I'd have to sell more then just the Harley to do it though. I'd have to sell my Saleen and the Harley and the wifes Harley and my truck and anything else I have.

.....WHAT??? What kind of asking price do you think I'm looking for?? I don't think you have to sell everything including your first born for it. Like I said in the classified section, no reasonable offer will be refused... You offer me $10K and that's an insult and not a reasonable offer. Think of the asking price and make logical offer and you'll own your own 95 S351...

 

[saleen065]

Oh I wouldn't offer you such a low ball price. I know better then that. I wish I could believe me. I just have to get the rest of my debt clear first which mainly is just the Harley. If I sold it my wife would shoot me dead! lol
