Chappy,
Sansone Ford in Ocean, NJ (Rt 35, just north of the Asbury circle) has one in the showroom. I spoke to Anthony G, the Shelby/Saleen rep. This is their second car. Overall its a very nice piece, would be a nice OT car. They were pushing it for $5995 over MSRP, but....since it was the last day of the month, he was willing to deal....but not that much....they were hoping to make a name for themselves and get a third car in.
I really like the execution of P Jones Trans Am car in this model. Both Saleen and Jones sign the dash too. Only thing that bothered me was the upper bolster on the drivers seat jammed between my shoulder blades, could be uncomfortable on long drives.
They also had a couple of low miles S281 Saleens there and some Roush 427R Stangs.
Re: Z06....yer on the mark! I may wait another year and pick up a used Z06. Hands down, best bang for the buck for a dual purpose driver/racer. They make average racers (like me!) look like a pro!
