Roush.. but almost all the way. when it comes to the 94-98 stangs, the Saleen look is my favorite

While I like them both, Roush has definately taken over where Saleen used to dominate. I still like the Foxbody 5.0 Saleen's tho!

Saleen by far, performance is about the same. But imo Saleen has better quality materials used. I am not talking about making a clone, I am talking about buying the real thing.

My dad is looking at the 07 S281 SC and Stage III Roush and the Saleen has much better materials. The leather is nice, the gauge pod finished the car better, the body kit looks awesome, the suspension is better, the engineering on the exhaust is cool.

As far as the SN95 cars too, imo the same applies. Seats are nicer, wheels look better, body kit is WAY better looking, etc.

I would agree on the material. but i just love the roush side exhaust. thats why i choose it, but would honestly prefer to buy a non s/c saleen, if i got either..

There is no comparison, Roush is much better in every sense

Saleen all the way....I cant stand the 99-04 roush front bumper except the 360R (I think thats what its called), & Im not big on the side skirts either. The whole bodykit is too bulky imo. And the 05+ Roush front end is way too busy looking. Why on earth would they add lower foglights without removing the GT grille & foglights. Other than that the 05+ Roush's look ok. All Saleens look sexy to me though, & especially the 05+ & the Fox bodys.
