I thought there was only the 03 or 04 cobra saleen, and only a hand full made?

the only saleen thing i see on that car is the stripes on the side.

As seeing as the only Saleen piece on it from what I can see are the side stickers and maybe wing, I'm calling BS.

oh and the spoiler

A Saleen Cobra would have the Saleen bumpers would it not?

a saleen with saleen bumpers? no way, you're crazy.

I saw a few of these at a Mustang's Unlimited show in Connecticut some had a full Saleen package some just had the stripes and some interior accent pieces and they had a seperate certificate from Saleen...

I would still think it was a good buy....just dont buy it thinking its a real saleen cobra, and if it is.. more the better.

Ask for pictures of the certificate he says he has

a 96-98 Saleen Cobra looked just like a normal S281

and they were rare, very rare.

only about 20 per year between coupes and convertibles

I just messaged him but this was an old post on craigslist 9/14.

Looks legit... I know someone with an identical car..

Its just as Venemous96 says.

It seems like it would at least have the rear and side pieces. I can understand maybe keeping the Cobra front just to say "Hey, I'm not a standard Saleen, I'm a super uber rare Cobra Saleen". But iunno. I still call shenanigans.

 

[cmsismyname]

judging by the fact that only 5 covertible saleen cobras were made in 97 and that they all had the regular saleen body kit
I'm going to assume that he is a faker

It may be like my car, my car had gotten sent out to Roush in '99 so it's not an Official Roush, but i do have a signed certificate of authenticity for the work they did and what not, that the previous owner gave me, but i don't go around calling it a Roush

theres a guy in my local club w/ a Saleen Cobra cloned car. supposed to have cobra hood, but everything else was Saleen according to his research. there were, accoring to him, 2 made in I think it was 97.

Personally, I feel that vehicles done in that fashion are no different than any other bolt-on car. Don't get me wrong, it's neat, but it's still not a Roush. I'm not dogging you or anything because we seem to be on the same page as it but having work done by Roush/Saleen/Whoever is not the same as purchasing one of the showroom floor with a build number.

There was a Saleen Cobra in the showroom when I bought my car in 96. It had the Cobra front and Saleen sides/rear with a Vortech on the 4V. It was a Black Speedster and gave me a chubby but it was stickered at over 40k and I was young and not spending that much.
