I look at them from time to time... Don't know exactly what year the stickers changed on the fox Saleens but it was an improvement form this. I'd say it should be close to reserve...

I think it would be worth the buy it now price, as long as the repaint was done correctly and not a maaco type paint job with tape lines and overspray everywhere. I would like to have this car, its my favorite color combo. The white with gold looks great imo.

Yes, meant close to bin price. I'd go 9k but that's me not really caring if I had t or not. 100k, repaint, missing vins, etc. I'd look at it or into it well before paying the bin.
IMO their value isn't as strong as 93 cobras so if I were considering it I'd start with the if it were a 93 cobra what would it be worth and then knock a little off for sure.

The stripes changed in 89 to the smaller that went into the S. Not sure if it was a mid year thing or not. But the car should be close to worth asking price the tan interior is rare. 9k would be good. Here is an 89 I had with 30k on it.

It was midnight blue with gray interior. I have also had a red with gray cloth 89 and a 90 black one and a 91 strawberry coupe Saleen I wish I had kept. Only 4 Saleen Coupes built in 91.

You don't see too many saleen coupes that's for sure. How do fox saleens drive compared to a 93 cobra?
