I've been waiting to see what Saleen and Roush would do with the new body style. The Roush is a little more radical and ricey, I think I like the Saleen better.

But I'm really just waiting to see what SVT does with the new Cobra.

Is the Saleen N/A? Im guessing that the Roush is supercharged. I like em both, maybe the Saleen a bit more, cause the Roush has a little too much going on with the front end. Id rather drive the roush racing mustang, with the Saleen body and roush rims.

Saleens usually have two flavors. N/A and forced induction so I'd bet a supercharged version is available. I need to find the Steeda version and post it up. It looks better than the Rousch but not as clean as the Saleen. All of them have horrible wings though. Only a ducktail spoiler will do on this car.

Is this the Steeda Mustang that you speak of?

I think the Steeda looks the best, though i love Saleen's Rims.

Lockjaw 10-31-2004 11:13 AM

Yeah that's it. The wing again is ridiculous but overall it's ok.

powerclown 10-31-2004 12:15 PM

I like the Saleen the best, Steeda second, wouldn't-take-the-Rousch-for-free third. The Steeda looks very, very, VERY nice from the front.

Ramega 10-31-2004 07:32 PM

The Saleen is just the S281 so far, though if history serves then there will be a blown version. The S351 is the daddy, and I'm sure they'll make one of those as well.

todd 10-31-2004 07:33 PM

Damn that Saleen is nice

THGL 11-01-2004 05:48 AM

I like the Saleen the best. The design is understated which lets the performance (I'd presume) speak for itself.

The only thing I don't care for are the fog lights, they're a little too "Elenor" for me.

MSD 11-01-2004 08:08 AM

The Roush is a disaster. The lights are mismatched, and the bumper makes the car look like it has a huge underbite.

edit: and any sort of spoiler on either one would just look stupid.

That is exactly what I thought when I saw the pic. Just awful.
Of course, I would take one if someone gave it to me

Ramega 11-02-2004 06:09 AM

Yeah, interesting that Saleen decided <i>not</i> to go with the grille-mounted headlamps.

fastom 11-02-2004 07:08 PM

I think i like the 05 devoid of body kits. I'd choose the Steeda over these other two, but the Roush looks a bit cleaner than the Saleen with the 60's throwback styling cues... the front airdam lives up to the spoiler name in this case. :p

As on the last body style when the same sized tires and wheels are used on both ends it makes the backs look smaller.

abel 11-03-2004 02:58 PM

looks so mean... i wonder what chevy will do next with the camaro...

That may be true but you would have a nice place to sit during a picnic! :lol:

Right now it's just the Roush Stage 1 with body mods, by early next year they'll have the RS2 with the suspension and chassis mods, and in the spring or summer they'll go all-out with t he RS3, which will be stroked to 351 in addition to the boost.

Esoteric 11-04-2004 10:21 PM

That Saleen is very sleek, I like it better than the Roush. That Steeda's pretty damn nice too though. Although, I honestly wouldn't mind having either of them for myself.

werneron 11-04-2004 11:05 PM

Goddamn, I love the Saleen and the Steeda. I think I'm gonna have to settle for a GT tho, or get a second job!

wrongfullyaccuzd 11-05-2004 11:22 AM

This is definitely the Mustang's year.

avhg1 11-05-2004 11:59 AM

The Saleen looks great, but I don't like the Roush. The Steeda looks okay, except that huge wing on the back with the angled supports. Might have to Photoshop it out to see what it would look like.

avhg1 11-05-2004 12:12 PM

Well, I took it out and I think the car looks great without it. I would post it, but my dang image host is down.

psyday 11-05-2004 12:14 PM

Nice, nice, nice, love that Saleen!

Also need to keep that ass down on the road when you put your foot in it!

f0rd 11-06-2004 08:37 AM

The Saleen definitely is sweet. The Roush, on the other hand, is a styling disaster! :)
