Re: Saleen Challenger

I'm not thrilled at all they need to hook up with another vendor or invent one!
I personally don't like the cross over with saleen way to pricey and you get lack luster performance for big bucks. 3 of my buddies have had saleens and you pay just for the name I wasnt impressed at all!
Maybe things have changed!

Steve Saleen and his new company SMS introduced today the first product in his line of Signature Series ultra-high performance vehicles, the SMS 570TM Challenger and SMS 570XTM Challenger. The fully certified and street legal cars will be based on the 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T and will feature an SMS supercharged 5.7L Hemi with power ratings of 500 and over 700 horsepower, respectively.
Billy Tally, SMS Chief Technical Officer, said, “The horsepower and torque that we are developing from the SMS Supercharged Hemi is phenomenal, and combined with suspension and braking improvements our SMS Challenger will be an incredibly capable, refined and tractable vehicle.”
Each of the limited edition vehicles will be personally signed by Steve Saleen. Production numbers will be limited per year depending on the model and the opportunity to be one of the few owners is limited to a first-come, first-served basis.

How dare a Ford guy touch one of our MOPARS....
