i own a 95 GT and bought a book recently on mustangs, one section which featured a history on saleen mustangs included a one year only (1994) production V6 saleen, called the V6 Sport, i was just wondering if anyone owned one, if you do post up some pictures, and let me know how the car sounds, im very curious!

 

well John, I have never heard of that either.....now I'm intrigued!

 

I also have never heard of it. Brad Bowling's The Saleen Book makes no mention of it. I'll see if Brad knows anything about it.

 

i'd heard they talked about a V6 sport version. but it was going to cost almost as much as the regualr saleen so they dropped the option

 

There were very few made. They were not serialized. I have literature somewhere on them. I remember that the original Saleen Web designer Chris Hoff had one that was later made into a killer S-351 SR.

They were regular V6 cars that had the 17" Stern wheels from the 93 models, and some graphics, and an exhasut, but I don't think it was much beyond that.

 

the engine was left untouched? in theory I have a V6 that'll beat a saleen!!!

 

Here's some info on Mr. Hoff's.

well the book i originally found the information is standard catalog of Mustang 1964-2001 by brad bowling. in the saleen section it is pictured and does have a few paragraphs on it. appearace wise it does have the older saleen rims (from 92/93) and some side striping. it says that saleen created it as an entry level car in which insurace premiums would not be as high. it came with a 220hp supercharged 3.8L v6 and was to cost approx $22,000
in the production chart for the 1994 saleens it says that a total of 29 v6 sports were produced and sold "but were not considered part of the regular Saleen numbering scheme"
theres even a picture of the supercharged v6 engine
the car looks pretty intresting, i dont take this books information as bible but ive never seen anything else writeen about these cars, anywhere, so anyone with more info please enlighten me!

 

You're right John, and it's in the second edition of that book too. Very interesting!

 

anyone out there ever seen one? i know its a long shot as it seems there were only about 30 made, but hey you never know.
or how bout likns to a site with pics, im just very curious about how fast they were or how they might sound, ive always been a diehard V8 mustang person, so this is makeing me wonder lol

 

...been looking online for a few days, and still nothing on them, intresting but i guess ill just have to live with know just whats in that book

 

Here is a site where an one is for sale that was made into a S-351 for 29,000
Saleen V-6 None of the pics works so dont waste your time

 

crap. didnt see the "none of the pics work" until i came back lol

was about to post "the pix dont work" too :P

dang, now im curious. i think a new version of a V6 Saleen Sport would kick **** for like $22K. just plop and exhaust, S/C and a few other goodies onto a totally base stang and there you go!

 

Someone owns a red Saleen V6 Sport in NC saw it at Lowes Speedway last fall at carshow there, plus same one in 30th Anniv. Mustang video tape to.

it cool to know someone can confirm their existance lol
still no pics...so elusive

 

Here is one of the V-6 Saleens! This is at the Ford Owners Show in N.C in 2003! The car was Supercharged! Mark

 

Nice Find Mark! I couldn't find any pix online, and I still can't find the old pictures in the magazines.

 

That's the one I was talking about ,the stripe had some fade to it

thanks

 

wow. i like that stripe

 

Is that Saleen stock? It could easily be factory V6 with bunch of mods. You know, Saleen Clone.
