Hey Guys-

I just got back from the California Auto Show. Lots of cars, including-

2005 S-281
Shelby GR-1
Ford GT


I am re-sizing pics right now. Unfortunately, my camara didn't do well with the Saleen spinning and taking pics. But I tried. BTW....the S281-E (Due out this Spring) will be

525hp
520lbs/ torque.

Surfn, buy a new camera a go back tommorow! :-D Hehe J/K :jester:

I'm looking forward to seeing what you have! :nice:

I also have a video of the saleen spinning, and a lady going over details about the car...but it is 30mb. Anyone know how to make it smaller?

I am still so stoked about the show. I saw so many cars..including a 05 Mustang GT and V6. I got to sit in the v6. and I liked it VERY much.


Things I noticed...

I slammed the door on the V6....sounds SOLID.

I didn't like the pics of the Saleen, but in person...I loved it.


I have 80 pics of the whole night...including a Chrysler that goes 248mph....so if any of you would like some...I can send them to you over AIM. AIM is SurfnSoCal

Oh, and all my pics are 1024x768

thanks a lot for the pics and info, Richard!!!
i wish i could have gone to the car show

please, PLEASE post the video of the saleen spinning

its 30mb...I can't host it. :-\

The Saleen looks hot :nice:

darn thats an early auto show, the chicago 05 show isnt till feb

OMG :w00t: holy Shiznits thats sweet. spoiler kinda weird, but n a good way...

:burnout:

Hmm... could that be the 5.4L Ford GT engine retuned a little? That certainly would be the easiest way to get those numbers.

Awesome pics :)

I really can't wait for the Detroit (NAIAS) auto show now!!

amy i cant wait to see what u take eather

I think that Saleen looks gorgeous - thanks for the pics!!!

great pics.

the shelby looks o-so-schweet.

:worship:

Man, i still hate that rear spoiler on the saleen. Other than that it is pretty sweet

The E version will probably be priced near Viper range.

no, a 281 is a 4.6 L engine. A 5.4 L would be around 330 cubic inches.

That's excellent news, thanks for the report. Glad to see Saleen trying to take the performance to another level.

I like the pipes on the saleen, it just looks sweet. Does anyone know how much a saleen will cost? Are there different levels/stages like a Roush? Awesome pics Richard.

I look forward to Amy's pictures as well!
