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.

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

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

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!
