With 500 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque, Saleen says that the E promises to show its twin center exhaust pipes to plenty of sports cars boasting much higher price tags.

Saleen estimates that the E will accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds and run the quarter-mile in about 12.1 seconds at 117 mph. The S281 E is scheduled to be available in July, 2005.

"At the heart of the S281 E is a unique Saleen-manufactured, high-revving, 4.6-liter V8 engine producing 500 horsepower. The 281 cubic-inch V8 uses a special forged steel crankshaft, forged steel connecting rods, Saleen-patented forged aluminum pistons and unique aluminum cylinder heads featuring special valve springs."

Forged internals...so Saleen fixed the problem! I wouldn't mind having one aside from the fact that it's probably about $80,000.

Ok, let's talk about 05 f-bodys... :roll:

If you don't like it, don't read my posts. People were complaining earlier about the new Saleen not having power, etc. so I posted this to show what power they are going to add.

I will go ahead and tell you now maybe you want to retract that statment because greg was going to school and paying for his car.

I dont have time for a job. That is that. I go to school full time and practice 4 to 5 hours a day during the week and that if not more on the weekends I dont have time for work plain and simple. But it will pay off in the end.



Bryant See edit. Im not that harsh.

Actually asside from not being too pretty or having tail lights it runs perfectly fine... but then brandon will need those tail lights so you don't run into the back of him after he whoops that Mustang ass!!

I went to school, worked at least 30 hours a week, managed to sit on my ass doing nothing a lot of the time and still got this car and modded it. Your arguments are weak.
