My friend has an 2002 "Saleen S281" but there a few things that make me feel its fake. The biggest is it has the svt cobra in the front grill and i didnt think the two companies were associated at all. Also at the strip he has ran over 10 times and has managed a best 14.5...He says it has around 450 to the wheels, but from what i can see he got ripped off when he purchased the car. What do you guys think?

Sound like he got the base Saleen which is nothing but stickers and body kit. What was the MPH at the track? Is it supercharged?

Your friend is the WORST driver of all time OR that car has serious issues.

Yep. A stock GT should be able to run quicker than that let alone a supercharged mustang.
