Last summer a dealership actually let me drive a blown Saleen S351 convertible and it was outstanding. They let me drive it because A. my 92 GT is pristine and a bunch of salesmen asked me if I wanted to sell it, and B. the Saleen had been on thier floor for awhile. Needless to say, I drove it hard. We got on the freeway and I hammered it from the ramp light up to about 120 and pushed it into a long sweeping curve. It was like a slot car. The best part was when we returned to the lot. The salesman who was with me (appeared to be about 19 and didn't really know squat about the car) exclaimed "whoa dude, I've never seen the boost gauge move before!" Very cool but, unfortunately I had 46,000 reasons not to buy it.
