I am listing this beauty for a longtime Saleen collector and friend. He has sold one of his warehouses and needs to downsize some of his expansive collection (mostly Saleen’s and other super high performance vehicles) and has asked me to sell a few of the vehicles which I will be doing in the coming weeks, so PLEASE NO TRADE OFFERS. I own an automotive shop specializing in Mustang’s, Cobra’s, Saleen’s and Shelby’s for the past 30+ years and know this Saleen and Saleen products in general very well. I fly all around the world to appraise and evaluate Saleen, Shelby and other higher end collectible vehicles and collections. This is one of the 20 Saleen S1 Cup race cars built and this is the first time this has ever been offered for sale! These cost over $500K for Saleen to build. Carbon fiber body, TIG welded aluminum frame with double wishbone suspension and certified FIA full roll cage. All parts available still from Saleen in Corona CA as after these cars proved themselves, Saleen plans to still build a street version of these cars when they get EPA certification. This car is sold on a Bill of Sale only as a race car and can be raced in various classes. Will also come with an MSO from Saleen and does have a VIN #. Can be raced, shown or do what you choose to do with it. you’d be the hit of any track day at any track too! Look at how many previous Saleen race cars bring over a million dollars now and end up in collections never to be seen again. Here is your chance to own a piece of Saleen history! I have been a collector, appraiser, and purist for over 30 years and love vehicles, especially Shelby and Saleen variety such as this. My collector friend has been the only driver since getting from Saleen since it was retired from race duty in 2019. These cars were intended to and beat vehicles such as McLaren, Porsche, Audi, BMW, Corvette, ETC all of which much higher cost. It is 450HP and 460 ft lbs of torque and is exceptionally balanced as far as looks, power, sound, handling, braking, and comfort.all of which is custom built from scratch by Saleen. with simple tuning HP and TQ can be increased or decreased for different classes. It is much more the best of everything over any other race car offerings. All fresh fluids. This car is ready to drive and enjoy immediately and needs absolutely nothing! I would not take the time to take all the pictures and videos, and write as much as I have if the Saleen S1 wasn’t worthy either. It is absolutely amazing in every way! Nothing leaks or seeps Has been stored correctly and started often since retired from race use. I will be happy to arrange shipping from my door to yours anywhere in the lower 48 states at your expense or you can fly out and trailer this beauty home and enjoy a little vacation in sunny, warm Palm Springs, CA that averages 70 degrees during the month of January. The 2 shipping companies I have dealt with for many years are licensed, insured and bonded in all of the lower 48 states. Whom ever uses Buy It Now or makes a reasonable offer will get this beautiful S1 race car that needs nothing to enjoy now and is RARE! It needs absolutely nothing to show, drive, race and enjoy right away. Has been maintained with an open wallet since new. See my videos to hear and see every detail. Don’t miss out and regret it later, you will never find another race ready race car this well maintained and well built, this well kept, with such history, and is ready to do what ever you choose with it.shows, parades, club events, weekend racer, or can even be a tax right off if used for your business! Any way you look at it, this car will not go down in value! This will sell, hopefully to YOU!
