Have to say the Saleen is the best version i have seen so far. How much are these going for?

I like it overall. However, I think it really doesn't say Saleen with that front clip design.

I love it. Best looking 2010 I have seen yet.

![]() Way to go Saleen. However I would probably remove that 1/4 window cover. |

I agree, it's not the traditional "5 hole" Saleen design. I also don't like the 1/4 window covers. I like it overall though.

I think it looks great. Clean, modern, and unique (especially the rear), and I even really like the wheel. Don't quite care of the side skirts though -- they don't seem to flow well with the clean, "flatter" sides of the front and rear. But, overall, it might be the best so far.

The hood is quite "un-Saleen-esque" as well. But, I think that is the point -- to get away from the "old" Saleen to morph it into something new (a bit tougher and more muscle car), yet keep some familiarity (with the rear).

not loving the hoot scoop, rest looks good to me. hopefully a different hood will be on their options list.

From what I hearing, wing with be optional this year and scoop will be functional on 2011 version. Also on these photos, got this info from a consultant for SPV who provided assistance for the design: Quote:

I like the look of the rear 3/4 shot especially, and most any grill that gets rid of the fog lights is good too. The more I see of the aftermarket efforts, the more I appreciate what Ford did with the car in 2010. The Saleen bodywork lengthens the whole car to the point that from the side, it looks just a little too long to me. I like a more abbreviated "squat chunky hunkered down" look over a long and streamlined look. I think that's more in keeping with the mustang. I know the rear corners tapering is a bone of contention for many, but it does make the car look smaller, and I like that. Don't like the gapping maw approach to the front facia either, but I'm sure it cools the intercooler well. Really nice coherent effort overall. Just not my cup of tea.

These still look like renderings of some sort, are they actual photographs?
I'd like to see an actual photo if they are just renderings. But I definitely like the rear of the car better than ANY of the 2010 mustangs.

It seems Saleen and Roush have no intention of using HIDs.

woooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....I LIKE THIS
Retains a lot of the earlier Saleen cues, but not in a "weird, space-alien" way...MUCH more refined now... Don't care for the 1/4 window covers but that's easily remedied
