Well, that blows. Saleen is one of the first Mustang tuners on the market who sold turn key cars. I guess ever since Steve left the shop, it's been downhill. Wasn't there a Saleen Camaro coming out soon or something?

He started a new company called SMS and I think hes doing camaros and the new Challengers.

He's still doing mustangs also. If I remember right I believe Saleen has filed bankruptcy a time or two in the past

Hmmm interesting, so I take it no more sick stangs at the NYC auto show to drool over.

those 08 gts went for like 17k! holy shit that would have been a hell of a deal. Get a brand new stang for 17k :crazy2:

Holy crap, Saleen made NICE mustangs! Wish I would have known sooner/ had money, 19 pirelli tires for $1300!!! Dang, that would have been nice, too bad they are for 20' and not 18' . http://www.1800lastbid.com/auction/listings/details/index.cfm?itemnum=56642

I wonder if Steve saw the writing on the wall... Damn, sounds like people got some deals.

At least Saleen is adapting. Except for the huge Racecraft logo at bottom of the doors the 420s sounds pretty sick.

I just saw Steve Saleen at the NMRA in ATCO a week ago. He didn't look like he was doin too bad LOL.
