wowowowow...I know you waited awhile but dam it sure does look worth it! Really impressed with the looks and specs of the car. I read through and maybe I missed it, but does the car weigh less than a standard GT? It looks like they have done several things for weight reduction...

Enjoy it!

Congrats on the "new" Black Label.

On that note, you are waaay more patient and tolerant than myself. :thumbsup:

Saleen has been in trouble for years, filed bankruptcy several times under different names and I'm surprised they are still putting out ANY product. I believe the issues you encountered were directly related to suppliers not shipping product to Saleen because they were not getting paid or Saleen was so far behind in paying them. :( :gossip:

I truly hope Steve call pull the company back out of the cellar. I know he's a good person and has the knowledge to make a great car. :headbang:

Congrats on the car! She is a beaut! Sucks you had to wait that long. In the time frame listed in the homepage story I ordered to spec, a 16 GT350 Track Pack. Then Sold it and purchased an R a few weeks ago....HOLY COW!

I don't know if it weights less but I can tell you that I does feel a lot lighter than my 15 GT PP. I would image it should since the body kit has carbon fiber and the hood is also lighter than the GTs.

Did Saleen just get lazy with designing the front clip and hood, or were they trying to make it look like a charger?

I wouldn't buy anything from Saleen after he screwed so many of us. He sold Saleen in 2007 or 2008 and the agreement was that the new company did not have to warranty any previous Saleen items, instals etc. Fu*k Saleen.

Is it just me or does this thing look soooo much better thank roush and a gt350 .... I mean Jesus look at the brakes alone!! The car doesn't look rushed at all !!!. If they were charging say less than roush was I'd be all over getting a saleen !!! Such a special and unique looking car !!!. You'd think though that in there current situation if they sold the car for a little bit less they would sell like hotcakes get the name out again like it used to be when I was a kid and actually have him making money again !! Looks better than a roush . Looks like actual massive changes to the car in general not just basic ass switches... On wheels , cheap as diffuser , same brakes and unfunctional everything.. when this thing literally seems to have function everywhere !!
