GT500 or Saleen S281 E

reddrgn01gt · Apr 2, 2006

Just like the title says guys. Would you rather have a GT500 or a s281 e? I have been arguing with a kid on a myspace mustang board about this. Before you label me gay a girl i know made me sign up so i thought i would check out their mustang board. It is filled with kids who have no clue what they are talking about. In the last week I have pimped out stangnet numerous times as a place to find info from knowledgeable people.:SNSign:

My vote goes for the gt500. 5.4 4v dohc > 4.6 3v sohc. The guy keeps telling me the saleen is a much better car that was built for road racing and the gt500 is a road car. He also says it has a much better engine.

What are your thoughts?

I've heard the same thing about the GT500 from quite a few "Mustang Guys"

I dont know if I agree guys. You can easily buy a Saleen S281 E for MSRP, but you wont be seeing a Shelby for that anytime soon.

The E is a base MSRP of 68K, but its specs are better than the Shelby. It has more hp, more tq, better brakes, lighter weight (according to saleen the E weights 3600lbs while the shelby has been said to be nearly 3900lbs) the suspensions are probably pretty equal and imo the Saleen looks better.

That GT500 is the king of the road, but they are both awesome cars that I will never own!

My dad ordered a GT500, but I like the Saleen better..Maybe I'll change my mind when he gets it..However, I like the '04 S281-E better than the new one (looks wise).
