I'd take the top one(s)...in red or blue...hell, who am I kidding, I'd take the bottom one too. :drool:
 
The car is awesome for sure, no doubt about it, but the rims, ugly and waaaaay too big IMO. The previous Saleen had the same wheels on the truck and car and those too were ugly as well. Also, why the "bling" on a perf car, get with the program and rethink your wheel choice Saleen, I mean, I know your almost out of business, having closed that big ass building in Troy Michigan and all, but come on!

+1 Some 18's, maybe 19's, or staggered setup would be perfect on that car. Mustang RTR wheels would look sickk on the saleen... The body kit looks badass tho!

I could not have said it better myself. I do like the way the bottom one looks though!

so it is a 2011 mustang with an intake, exhaust, wheels and a body kit?

Saleen branded intake, exhaust, wheels and body kit.

I still kinda feel bad for Saleen on their other models from last year. It's like Ford didn't give them the heads up that the Mustang was being revamped and they still put in the work to make some cars that no one would buy at full price now.

suspension, brakes, etc. what the heck did you think Roush, Steeda, Saleen, Shelby, etc where :shrug: still nice limited mustangs IMHO, even though I pretty much know you new the answer anyways :laugh:

I thought the brakes and suspension were pretty much the same thing the new GT could be optioned with. Nice looking mustang though..... I'll admit that. The body kit looks perfect, idk, I was just expecting a little more. They are claiming only 13 hp over stock.....
 
I'm not impressed... looks very generic with no rhyme or reason. performance-wise, the specs on most saleen branded cars have been meh for a while. I've assumed that the small changes they make add up to an overall strong driving experience, like SVT products, but perhaps it's just another once strong brand that has lost its practical value?
