Rare Rides: The 1996 Saleen S-281 Mustang, Plastic Fantastic

Rare Rides has featured three of Saleen’s sporty creations in past: A one-off Thunderbird styling exercise, a hot hatchback, and the company’s full-on supercar. Today’s Rare Ride is probably more familiar than those other three, as it’s Saleen’s most basic take on the SN-95 Mustang.

EBFlex What an absolute joke. These price games Tesla plays is ridiculous
Tassos Serious car for serious drivers. Price is good especially considering the value of the USD. Watch out for blue smoke and a plan for a healthy maintenance budget. Otherwise this is a decent used car that could very well be a future classic. AS FOR ME, I’M NOT A SERIOUS PERSON SO I’LL CONTINUE FLEXING MY ANCIENT DIESEL BENZES (REBUILT TITLES) LIKE IT’S SOME KIND OF ACCOMPLISHMENT.
Fahrvergnugen “enormous power.” I guess ludicrous power must have been taken already. Where's the shazzbot power?
Probert Just to note: The suspension and braking system have been massively upgraded to match the drivetrain performance.
MaintenanceCosts They are trying to compete straight across with the BMW iX and Volvo EX90 on price. With a Kia (Boyz) badge. Good luck with that.In the $65k range there would be a case.
