Finally Arrived: PJ #494
I ordered it in January; I guess that's what I get for requesting the latest build # available. This is the only one with a factory-installed Saleen Scenic Roof. It is absolutely amazing to drive!!! I will post dyno #'s after the break-in period...

I hate you!

But seriously, congratulations. That's an awesome car, and very cool that it has something to make it extra rare. BTW, I hate you.

AWESOME CAR DUDE!!! My friend has one (#266) and its an amazing vehicle. He actually dyno'ed it last weekend at a Shelby Club show. They had a portable Dynojet. Before he even put it up on the roller, he said he's heard numbers of 325-328 rwhp on these (which equates to 20% loss). Well, 1st pass, 327 rwhp! Talk about accurate. Also, my buddy also just ordered a tune from Doug, as he did a dynotune of one in his shop. Another 20 hp is what he's claiming. . Can't wait to see pics of it on the dyno!!

Awesome choice on the scenic roof option. Makes it look so unique!

What are the specs on the wheels/tires? I know they're 19's but what is the width? I've heard conflicting reports on the tire sizes- 275/40's and 285/35's, etc...

Looks great... got to ask did you manage a good deal on it? My brother was looking at one but it has a $72,000 sticker on it (don't recall the number)

Hmmm... that's interesting because the optional tires on the regular Saleen's are the same except 20's- 275/35/20 front and 275/40/20 in back. I guess the extra inch wasn't a problem?
