Default Lots of different Saleen's out there...

I met the owner of one..that I wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole...that car was wicked fast..a special Saleen built...all carbon fiber...IMSA suspension...not a normal Saleen.

Default Why in the WORLD would they block the rear side glass?

First and foremost, that has to make a huge blind spot. Not cool. If they did this because they think it looks cool, they're idiots. Reducing saftey for looks is just plain stupid.
Second, if they did it for looks, it's a total hack job and looks like *** anyway.
That said, I think I could put up with 500 hp. =)

Default Depends on which one of the three. They all look fast as 'stang tuners are heavy on bling.

I ran against a slow one in 3rd.

I've beaten 03+ Cobra's due to poor driving on the street, most of the time they don't get traction.
