Only in Texas. Well, maybe in Southern CA too.

Sure would be interested in the take-off parts though.


what a shame!!!

They devalued the car. The car is collectible as is, no need to screw it up with aftermarket crud!

To each his own, but I totally agree with you pegasus. IMHO, all these aftermarket body kits etc look horrid. I like the classic look that is the stock look. The only cars that need body kits are ricers but they look like crap with or without them.

This is just my opinion. I completely respect those who do in fact like these kits, just not my thing.

That dealership is only about 10 miles from me. I am going to have to go by and look at it in person before I draw an opinion.



FWIW, I wouldn't buy a car from that place. That is where I originally ordered my GT from in 04. They did absolutely nothing but jerk me around. After 5 months I went across town and bought the exact car I had on order with them ( 6 weeks after the promised on paper delivery date ) and got my deposit back.

I personally like the added bonus they put on the car in the picture which is in the bottom row and third in from the right. Nice dirty hand streak going down the headliner. That makes a real nice selling point on a car they want 85k for

It's not the look, It's not the workmanship, It's not the total package, THAT I DON"T GET.................

It's WHY, WHY, WHY, do it to that car!! geesh do it to a GT, mark that up, and push them both out the door.

They are going to own that for a very long time.....

in general. for 43000 ...the actual sticker of the gt500, its a sick price. but these markups are ridculous

As for this car, i really actually like the look. Its very cool, i never see saleens in red. Its a lot cleaner and not as husky as the gt500. the gt500 seems just too much of a beast, saleen is more sleek. Love both of them, nothing wrong with either.. If i could afford a gt500 it would have to be stock.
