cobra with a saleen kit - 9/25/2004 5:45:44 AM    Wings65288   Posts: 714 Joined: 9/4/2004 Status: offline is it a stupid idea to put a saleen kit like the rims and everything on a 03' cobra? i've seen a guy do it and it looked pretty sick but is that original or do you guys see that everywhere? basically im going to be buying a car in the next month or so and i'm not sure if i should just break down a get a saleen or a 03 cobra and do what i want to it, i plan on spending about 25-30k or so, -justin.

You will not have the same HP in a saleen that you would have in a cobra which is 390 (unless you bought the S281 E $62,000, 445 HP). I would just go for the cobra. _____________________________ From viper forums quote: And now we sound like a mustang board - if I just supercharge it, it will blow the doors off of anything...

If you can afford it, do it. You will NOT be dissapointed. _____________________________ - Your Worst Nightmare - (in reply to Wings65288) Post #: 4

Like the man said above, Cobra + Saleen kit is king. Saleen badges just make it a clone. You could send it to Saleen and have them make it a Saleen Cobra, but a Cobra is sweet enough as it is and I would hate to hear how much that would cost. (in reply to 2001_SaleenS281_08) Post #: 7
