Drove by Saleen's head quarters in Troy, Michigan the other day and their had to be at least 150 2005 mustang GTs sitting in the lot waitin to be Saleened. They had a red 2005 Saleen in the show room that i finally saw in person for the first time, and they had a couple of older models as well.
Just lettin some of you know why your still awaitin delivery because Steve Saleen gets first dibbs.

I would guess that AAI produces more than 150 Mustangs in a single day. Those 150 sitting at Saleen is a drop in the bucket.

Better than Roush having that many. I dont know if the world can handle all those ugly things on the streets.

Roush's old body kit looked so good... why did they have to make it so ugly for the S197s?

Actually, I don't think either one is attractive, but the Saleen is the lesser of two evils.

The problem with the Roush and Saleen (and all the other aftermarket stuff) for the 05 is that everybody just took the styling of the SN95 aftrmarket and grafted it on to the 05 body. Nothing is original. All those scoops and strakes don't belong on this body style.
