Article content is largely based on a vehicle was never produced; it may have been created as a hoax. It is nearly cut and pasted from http://wikicars.org/en/Saleen_S281_Sedan in its entirety. SteveCof00 (talk) 10:25, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Everything written on that Wikicars page is the one that I wrote. Anyway, yes, there is such car as the Saleen S281 Sedan. Altimgamr (talk) 04:52, 3 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete - utter rot, as far as I can tell. Youtube is not a reliable source.  Mr.choppers &#124;   ✎  19:10, 3 February 2014 (UTC)


 *  Delete . Fails WP:V. There is such a thing as a Saleen S281 - but that was a tuned-up Mustang. Note that the image appears to be copyvio and at the source describes the car as having Saleen wheels. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:20, 6 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete Any editor who does this and then asks this should not be relied upon to provide any reliable sources. -- Neil N  talk to me  04:59, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Given that...it's obvious we're having our legs pulled all around. - The Bushranger One ping only 07:10, 6 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete lol this is a total hoax, but just to be sure (since the article is somewhat detailed...):
 * The image in the article is not a Saleen S281 Sedan; it's a standard crown vic
 * The source saleen-s281-sedan-history.weebly.com is fake - The "Written by Freddie Benson in March 2008" is also fake. It's so new, Google has not indexed it yet. Yesterday someone spammed Yahoo in an [what I could only describe as an] attempt to index that website. (WayBack confirms it was not indexed). For a 6-year old post, it should surely be indexed or mirrored by now.
 * The second source, saleencrownvic.weebly.com, is in the same boat as the one I stated above.
 * The video has nothing to do with the article -- Cy be r XR ef ☎ 07:13, 6 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete. WP:MADEUP WP:HOAX by an obvious troll. - The Bushranger One ping only 07:14, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Along with it being impossible to verify, the originator of the post is using openly incorrect sources as references. Most likely, this does fit WP:CSD, but a second/third/multiple opinion better helps to keep this from popping up again.--SteveCof00 (talk)  20:34, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
