Hello everybody, I just wanted to ask a couple of questions and make a couple of comments.
First I think this is a great web site. Everybody seems to really get along for the most part and you folks all seem to care about other people. I have seen the dedication that one person did for another friend that was a Corvette owner that passed away a month ago, That was very moving. A true friend. Second the response that people gave to the other person that thinks they may have cancer. Unbelieveable, sympathetic and understanding from everyone. Has anyone not been touched by this dreadful disease somehow? My self included.
Now my questions. I am a Saleen owner but a car enthusuast. I am looking to sell the Saleen that I have owned for the past 12 years and buy either a 2003 convertible Cobra or a 2002 Convertible Saleen SC. (non E) I absolutely love the performance of the new Cobra and do like the looks a lot especially the Sonic Blue or the straight Black verts. But The Saleen(no offense) is the best looking car for under 40K(used) and the performance is not bad and with probably 2-3 grand you can have the performance of the Cobra. Knowing which site I am on I expect folks to go for the Cobra and that is ok, but has anyone had the chance to own or drive both and make a comparison? Mine is a Black Hatch back #89-709. GT 40 Turbo Swirl heads, Saleen Intake ported(made by Vortech) 65 mm TB, E 303 Cam, Bigger fuel pump(just cant remember the size now), Full Tockio adjustable suspension and 3:55 gears. With the Grey Saleen(American Racing Rims) Car has 66K miles and is only driven now less than 500 miles a year to 3-4 shows. Never dragged but has seen the high side of 145mph a couple of times. 97 Vette, 97 Mitsu 3000 vr4, Chevy Typhoon, Beat all of them pretty badly. Anyways I am asking 14,000.00 is that too much? Paint is probably 85% good some chips on front spoiler Interior is probably 90%. No rips just needs a good cleaning and a heater grill as one got broken when it got detailed .Interior all Original even Stereo and the Momo is still in there. Again I am the second owner. Owned since August 1991. Still love the car but its time to move on and I can't fund 2 toys like that. I know I will be kicking myself when I do sell as The car still looks great and can still get it going. Hopefully a new Love will help ease the pain
I apprecaite any feedback and look forward to the responses.
regards
Jon
