    What's everyones favorite body kit???

    mixed reviews on saleen quality, some seem to say no issue, others have had bad luck. that said, Saleen is the best looking even if it takes a little extra work to get it right. i might be a little biased, but of all the cars i've owned including vettes, cobras, etc, never have i gotten so...

    Roush Who made the shocks in 1997?

    I was reading my Mustang Standard Catalog 1964-2001 by Brad Bowling and of course digesting the Saleen section. In 1997 it says S351's have Bilstein shocks, S281's have Racecraft. Other years seem to list only Bilstein. Are S281 shocks not Bilstein, they look like them certainly? Anyone?

    Steeda Tri-Ax or UPR Blue Thunder???

    too often people say you are paying for "a name". no! you are paying for the cost they put into development. once something is out it is easy to copy without as much cost. people want cheaper and cheaper, then they complain when labor is moved across the seas and american jobs are lost...

    Rousch 360R Question

    i don't think most rousch or saleen owners give a rat's butt that x-car may be 2 tenths faster at this or that. its all about a reliable package. and the compliments. never even came close to getting as many as in my old vette, cobra, whatever i had.

    2003 Saleen Cobra?

    how many times are people going to beat this to death, either you are willing to pay a premium to have something rare or you are not. to each their own. why don't we all just buy 4 cylinder notch backs and convert them to 351's, throw in some suspension and have a hell of a performaer for...

    Roush Thinking about buying a Saleen, good deal?

    looks like a great deal, i bought mine back in May for $13,000 without the original wheels and it has had some paint work. add in $2,000 for the wheels and tires and it seems about right.
