After supplying special editions of Ford Mustangs
and Explorers, this Southern California manufacturer of race cars
has its own pride and joy to parade around at car shows.
When you turn race car engineers loose to design a
production car, you get such details as a muffler that doubles as
part of the rear crumple zone, aerodynamic carbon fiber panels and
a four-inch ground clearance. Yep, it really zips from 0 to 60 mph
in 2.8 seconds.

Drivers relax against Connolly leather while they
watch their center-mounted tachometer. Saleen lists power windows
and locks among the amenities, as well as adjustable pedals and
a six-CD player. The steering wheel comes off so larger people can
get in and out of the car.
And the trunk space is so, uh, special, you need custom-made luggage
for any traveling you intend to do in this two-seater.
