    Was never a huge fan of his Mustang work, but this car looks pretty sweet.

    I'll take 0-60 in 3.2 anytime...

    Not a terrible price either tbh, not that I can come anywhere near affording it, probably ever lol :D

    Still, nice ride to say the least ;)

    Saleen is da man when it comes to great mustangs and cars. I also love the cars that Roush comes out with. My latest mustang was a '90 GT running low 13's in the quarter mile. Nothing impressive but it was one hell of a fun car to drive.

    I was never a fan of his mustangs either.

    He put together a great exterior package but what you paid for didn't justify what always seemed to be lacking under the hood of his cars.

    Steeda always trumped what he could do for a much lower price tag.

    Having said that, this Raptor looks amazing.

    *ahem*

    Heard of the S302E “Extreme”? I don't think Steeda can match this one.

    It's $80K, but if you can find me a car with these specs for less, PLEASE let me know where it is!

    Have to agree with you on that one. Roush and Steeda always were the better buys for entry level. ;)

    Easy Pagan..... I'm on your side.... a fellow Mustang lover.
    Don't get into your "ricer bashing" mode. :lol:

    I can't argue with his top end Mustang work.
    I should have clarified.

    What I never respected was the work he put into the entry level Saleen Mustangs.
    You paid out the nose for his name IMO.

    Admittedly I haven't checked on what they've been doing recently including this little gem.

    Hey...how did you manage to move your post that I already quoted from to AFTER mine?

    Houdini! :lol:

    And I know you're a Stang lover too...and I'm right there with ya about Saleen being overrated for the lower end ones.

    I never heard of this one either until a couple of weeks ago. :D
