About the Saleen being less sophisticated, the Saleen produces 107.14 bhp per litre while the Maserati only produces 103.97 bhp per litre. I would also imagine a Saleen to be more reliable even with boost just because the Maserati is Italian.

FYI, this is coming from a person with only European cars in their driveway. Well, at least until I get my car.
Let's not get carried away. Twin turbo vs. Natural aspiration. 7000cc vs. 5998cc. Imagine if that smaller V12 was twin turbo. I honestly wouldn't bring sophistication into this.
