Smile How many 2008s Out There? ... Post Bumper #

Hello S331 Owners,

I know it will be a while before we officially know from Saleen how many 2008's will be (or were) made, but I thought it would be interesting to see what the ranges of bumper #'s are out there so far?

Just purchased mine from Frontier Ford in Anacortes, WA a month ago ... what a terrific truck! A few minor problems I thought I would share and see if any of you had similar issues ... very small leak in fuel rail where pressure sensor is welded in, a vibration in rear tail pipe when at idle and a rough stumbling engine at cold start for about 20 seconds. In for warranty repair now.

Anyway, lets see what is out there ... mine is Bumper #21 (08-021). I think there will be a lot fewer 2008’s than 2007’s.

I own an '07 and I have the same exhaust rattle. I just haven't had the time to take it in to get it checked out.

Im curious as to how the sales are going for the S331's as well, considering that overall truck sales are down across the US.

Just found another 2008 on eBay tonight with starting a bid at $35,000 with 9 days to go:

Bumper #29 - Black SuperCrew at Rich Ford in Albuquerque, NM

Bumper #39 still the highest I have seen … feel free to add any other 2008’s you know about … still looks like a whole lot fewer 2008’s than 2007’s.

Well, nice to see another 2008 owner on the forum ... welcome 08S33130 ! ... this is a 2008 S331 SC from Knoxville, Tennessee, Bumper #30 (Now have found eight 2008 numbers so far: 11, 18, 21, 22, 24, 29, 30, 39)

BTW, at least for us 2008 owners, we have the mechanical fans and don't have to fight the issues the rest of you have had with the electric fans. I know we are losing a few HP, but sounds like it is worth it.

I saw the one on Ebay last night. That dealer will be sorely disappointed when he realizes that $60k is way out of the price range on these vehicles now. I asked him who would be honoring the warranty on the vehicle....he has not replied.

I have Number 17 in Gray and I purchased it in 2008 at Galpin Ford in Nov of 2008. It is my daily driver and I love the truck. I am having some problems now with brake\rotor replacement. I've seen some posts but....not sure where to go. Directly to Saleen? Is there an alternative?

You can try Saleen and see what they have available.

Bill Vaughn at StopTech can also help -- he used to work at Saleen and also drives an S331, so he will be glad to help. They're in So. Cal. so they should be a quick resource.

Tell him Jim D. at SOEC sent you! :)

Thanks! StopTech called me. Gave the part numbers, now its just a matter of finding a StopTech Distributor that actually carries the parts. Wish me luck. I see Saleen advertises Brake Pads.

Sigh! I drive my truck daily. After reading some of the posts in this section with regard to parts....I'm not as encouraged to do that.

Thanks for all the help. Ryan at Stack Performance works on my SRT 8 Charger AND is a Stop Tech Distributor. They had two sets of rotors. (I'm gonna try to buy the other set just in case) Saleen told me they didn't have any...call Stop Tech!
