1 of 2 Triple White Saleen speedsters built! Magazine feature car and calendar car. Must be seen and driven to be fully appreciated! This 2001 supercharged Saleen started out as a stout 365hp car.

During the build and installation, only the highest quality and performance parts were used such as:

  • Rear wheels have been widened from 10" to 12 1/4 ' by Weldcraft. for added traction. They are now fitted with BFG 345/30/18 Drga Radials.

All installation / fabrication work was done with help from APS in Shakopee, MN. Car looks completely factory stock inside and out. It is fast, but drives like a stock car. Any buttons, switches, etc. are either out of sight or use factory locations. The only power limiting component is the stock Saleen supercharger. Before the engine build, the blower made 13psi boost. After the engine build it makes 8psi. This is a testament to both how well the engine flows now, and the limited abilities of the stock Saleen supercharger. This Saleen is unbelievably reliable and fast the way it sits. The sky is the limit with a bigger power adder, as the supporting hardware is all there.
This Saleen has never seen rain or snow, and it is kept in climate controlled storage over the winter. It has been meticulously maintained, and looks new inside and out. I have the original Saleen manuals, window sticker, receipts, and engine build documentation.
Only 62K miles.Car is for sale locally as well.
