CORONA, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/27/13 -- W270, Inc. (OTCBB: WSTY) today announced that it has completed its merger to acquire 100% of Saleen Automotive, Inc. and SMS Signature Cars ("Saleen" or "the Company"), a performance automotive company that manufactures, upgrades, and sells high-end sports cars and related parts.

Concurrent with the merger, Saleen Automotive, Inc. raised an aggregate principle amount of $3,000,000 (including the conversion of $500,000 of existing notes) via a securities purchase agreement with accredited investors.
