tier of these were made in the entire worse, and I've already found three of them for sale on marketplace. According to tier listing, this is a very rare 1999 Saline XP eight number 40. It is a high performance SUV based on the second generation Ford Explorer. You pretty much never see these. They're freaking sick. And by the way, if you don't know what Saleen is, that's okay. Saleen is an automotive tier. They actually manufacture their own cars as well, but they make some crazy one. By the way, I find and post the rarest, most bizarre, and most unique cars for sale on marketplace pretty much daily. So if that interests you, drop me a follow. Oh, and shout out to homie Martin for finding this. Great find. Anyways, these are actually quite hard to find despite us, me, and some of our followers here. We found three over the past three months, which is nuts. Now this thing has been driven, like I said, a 160,000 miles. It's a 27 year old car. I mean, that's about as old as I am. But you cannot deny it is so freaking cool. This one's for sale for $15,000 if that interests you. But you will get some eyes because nobody has these.
