Definately a nice pick up. Nice car

Thanks bro...yea they are definitely hard to find nowadays. I checked out 3 other ones nd they were all pretty beat up. Seems all of them have been repainted and at least the front bumper needs new paint.

This one was a STEAL for what I got it for...I negotiated for like 3 weeks and ended up buying it with no rims since I had the FR500's waiting in my garage I dont want to say the exact price, but it wasnt much more than what I sold my 2006 R6 for

Good luck on your search and try to find an unmodified/unmolested one like this one

u wouldnt believe what the previous owner picked it up for. if u do some searches ull see how cheap it was sold...dont know the exact figure but it was around 7k to 8k.

---

Damn...I searched it and looks like it sold for $6500 I should have bought it back then

Looks like Max made a little money off of me, but still....I didnt pay too much more than what he bought it for

Thanks man! I think the FR500's look the best so far too...although I am thinking about all black or black-chrome saleens now

when i went to the 1st annual apex show under the 2nd owner bill, i saw this car in the shop...freakin bad ass car w/ power to match.

As for the rims, I'll have to think twice about the 99+ Saleen rims. I really dont like chrome rims and the black ones are too black...so we'll have to see. Personally, I think the car looked terrible with those 98 cobra R's it had before I swapped them out. They were just too small and didnt flow well (in person). The pictures are deceiving

Hyperblack is another option for a finish on the Saleen rims

I'm usually not for that kinda of stuff on cobras or saleens, but in this case I'd make an exception and put some of those new s281 badges that were on the later model saleens 03-04.

I actually ordered a pair of Saleen badges from the 2005+ models. They look cleaner than the 99-04 emblems
