Does anyone have a 2019 or 2020 Saleen?

[sleepy floy]

Interested to hear feedback on the white or possibly yellow label. Don't see a lot of comments on them, i've been a fan since i actually got a chance to drive a new '87 when I was 16 years old.

Do some searching on here. Not a lot of positive feedback about them from what I’ve read. It’s been awhile since anyone has mentioned them.

Wow ! I thought Saleen was done back in the mid ‘90’s.
But yeah ! $76K USD for badges and embroidered seats looks like a steal of a deal.

Saleen showed up at the Sturgis Mustang Rally a couple years ago pushing the white and yellow label cars. He wanted a lot of money for cars with glaring panel fitment and paint issues which were basically catalogue specials. He claimed they were dialed in, bumper to bumper, and could run circles around a 350R. He also said they were doing the S7 again for a cool $750k if anyone wanted to put a deposit down. It was all really awkward. Although I did see they actually built more S7s so I guess he wasn't lying there. I like his cars and want them to do well, but it seems like he's still thinking his cars are track fighters in an era of manufacturer built and tuned track cars with millions in development.

I did prior to posting, was surprised at the lack of posts.

Well, $62k for one with a supercharger actually does seem like a pretty good deal: https://www.long-mcarthur.com/new-Salina-2020-Ford-Mustang-Saleen+302+Yellow+Label-1FA6P8CF4L5170105

They have ones in the mid $40k range that are actually cheaper than GT PP1, larger wheels and additional HP. I don't want an auto, but that red one is a damn good looking car.

The linked car looks like a good deal price-wise.

Although standard GT brakes on a 740HP vehicle doesn't sound like a good idea.

Again, it's a good price due to the heavy discount. But those standard GT brakes.....dunno.

For $47K, you could get a PP1 with Magneride, Active Exhaust, and then just spend a few bucks on (largely un-necessary) suspension goodies. And probably be ahead financially.

But if it's the Saleen styling that you like, then you gotta get one.

Didn't Steve Saleen get ripped off by the Chinese government last year in a botched business deal?

Just buy this;

2020, 401A, Safe & Smart, 6SPD, PP1, Magneride, Active Exhaust. $44,309.00

$8,146.00 off sticker.

I do like the Saleen styling quite a bit. The white one isn't my usual more conservative preference, but it reminds me of those original fox body versions that teenage me was crazy for.

You gotta' get what you like, what you want. What spurs your passion.
