Wayne,
Here's a little more information I got when ordering my SA-20: The brake upgrade uses Brembo, not Alcon parts. There is no lightbar and the tonneau cover is a unique, new design to the SA20. |

SA-20
Hi Wayne
How many of these SA-20's will they be making? Is this something that is ordered direct from Saleen or can you order from a Saleen Dealer. I am thinking that they had one at Villa Ford out here in California when I was out there last saturday. I had noticed that it had some diffrent Saleen stickers on the door. The stickers where it says Saleen were a lot bigger I am wondering if this was one of the cars in which you had ordered. I guess that I should have paid more attention to the details. Thanks jim293 2002 Saleen s/c coupe Torch Red #293 |

Jim293,
Saleen is only making 10 SA20 cars and they are ordered directly from Saleen, not your local dealer. You did not see one at a dealership because Saleen has not finished building them yet and the first "public" showing of the anniversary cars will be at the September car show at the Saleen Factory. As of last week, when I was checking on my order, I was told there were still some SA20's available. Call Lupe Baker, Director of Vehicle Sales, 949-597-3832, if you are interseted in ordered a SA20. |

Jim,
Did you receive my email that I sent you about 4 days ago? From what I have heard they are only going to have 1 or 2 of them built by the September show at Saleen. I have also heard they have a total of 4 sold, this was of about 1 week ago. Please let me know if you have any additional questions at all.

Thanks, Pete |

Here's the information from my order package: "This all aluminum dual-core radiator and high flow cooling system is ideal to maintain your Saleen at peak performance during the hottest weather. Recommended for track days and in the warm weather climates Retail Price: $349.00" Doesn't tell you much. |

SA-20 Pics from the Saleen Show
Saleen Celebrates its 20th Anniversary With
the Unveiling of the SA-20 Irvine, Calif., August 29, 2003 – This year marks the 20th anniversary of Saleen, Inc., manufacturer of premium, high-performance vehicles such as the Saleen Mustang, Saleen/bonspeed Thunderbird, Saleen Focus and Saleen S7. In celebration of this event, Saleen is offering the ultimate in limited edition vehicles: the SA-20 Speedster. The vehicle will be unveiled to the public at Saleen’s 7th Annual Car Show at the company’s Irvine facility on Saturday, September 13th. The SA-20 epitomizes Saleen’s philosophy; “Power in the Hands of a Few” with only ten of these special edition vehicles being produced. The SA-20 Speedster, based on the Saleen S281, will be available as a convertible only and will be powered by a 375 HP, 4.6L V8 featuring a Saleen Series IV Screw Type Intercooled Supercharger and Saleen PowerflashTM performance calibration system. The ten vehicles will be factory-custom painted Pearl White with its Five Spoke 18” wheels painted to match. The SA-20 will feature Saleen’s brandnew, never before seen 20th anniversary Tonneau cover with integrated light-bar design. In addition, the vehicle will feature 20th anniversary black and yellow graphics, Saleen’s lightweight, vented, composite hood, S281 Extreme Wing and S281 Extreme Rear Fascia with center exhaust. The interior of the SA-20 will feature 20th anniversary special edition Saleen leather sport seating, console plaque, custom floor mats and custom door panels. The Saleen SA-20 will mark the third time Saleen has celebrated one of its anniversaries with the release of a limited-edition vehicle. The company celebrated its 10th anniversary with the SA-10 and its 15th anniversary with the SA-15. Each anniversary car was produced in limited quantities of ten. Both cars are extremely rare and highly sought after. For customers who order the SA-20 prior to Saleen’s 7th Annual Car Show on September 13th, purchase includes airfare for two and one night’s lodging to be present for the public unveiling of the SA-20. SA-20 owners will also dine with Steve Saleen where a private unveiling of the vehicle will be held the evening before the car show. The following link will take you to the pictures: http://soec.org/saleen-celebrates-its-20th-anniversary/ Also to come are some photos and videos from the Saleen/SOEC Driving Event, post Saleen Show dinner and Sunday Sailing Day. These will all be in the new Post Event Gallery that will be added this week!!! I will be adding some additional Wallpapers of the SA-20. Please let me know if you have a special request of a specific picture you would like for a wallpaper.

Qs: 2003 SA20 production?
Greetings all! Longtime reader, first time poster with a question I know most could answer (yes, I searched first!). I always thought there were 10 SA20s produced, but the production page lists only 6. Can anyone tell me which # is accurate? And I also understand 1 was an auto? Oh, and if you own one and plan to sell it in about 3-4 years, you know there'll be 1 VERY intersted buyer out there for ya!
Thanks and keep up the great work everyone! |

There were 10 SA-20's built. One was an automatic. All were Speedster Convertibles!!!

As Mark stated above, one was an automatic and all featured the new Saleen Anniversary Speedster kit. This differed from the original Saleen Speedster in that the SA-20 had an low-profile, integrated styling bar connected to the cover. This would continue as an option on the 2004 S281s. The limit was set at 10 production units. As of the writing of The Saleen Book by Brad Bowling circa 2003, there were six SA-10 produced. As of Brad's most recent writings, he continues to state a total of six SA-20 were produced out of a possible ten. You bring up a great question though and this is when we shall ask one of the Saleen employees to check and see whats-what with the SA-20. Will have an update for you soon. Once again, thanks for visiting the forums and good luck with the search! |

The automatic is with a couple who do not plan on selling it any time soon.

SA-20 Pics from the Saleen Show
Whoever got that limited edition cars are extremely fortunate. I wonder how much each one is valued at.
|

|

|

Eight or nine of the total ten 2003 SA20 models offered may have been produced.

Is that Chuck's old car, #007? (Mr. Bond?)
|
#20
|
||||
|
||||
Yes!
Also of interest, Jim and I recently learned that SA-20 #11 was built to Extreme specifications by Saleen for the original owner. This appears to be the only 20th Anniversary model produced as such. |
#21
|

|

very interesting. Any pictures of #11 by chance, and what state is in ..?

SA-20 #11 was exported from the United States. The owner enjoys privacy.

Correction. It now appears SA-20 number 10 was also built as an Extreme. Like number 11, number 10 was built a year after introduction.
So, as we stand... two SA-20 models appear to be Extreme spec. Like number 11, both are part of private collections that include an S7. |

Everytime I see pictures of one of these I wonder why Saleen did not bring the flat black from the hood down into the grill opening of the front bumper. It just looks so natural to bring the black down and when I don't see that it looks unfinished. Beautiful car that is going to make someone very happy!

Dave those look like Brembo's, which would also be correct for Extreme spec.
An SA20 in Extreme spec would be the ultimate New Edge car IMO. Thanks for sharing the pictures of #10

The #10 and #11 SA-20 are running the "large Brembo" kit. Versus the standard Saleen/Cobra R Brembo kit. Attached are samples. Red calipers are the "large kit." Black calipers are the "small kit." |

|

|

Was that only an option for the sa-20? Any other new edges running the larger Brembo?
