Burning Blue Star IV Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Looks alright to me...but honestly..didn't make me go "wow". Just not my style perhaps. Thanks for the link Bpmurr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kahmann Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Hate to say it, but that's the best looking 2010 I've seen. They really cleaned the rear end up as much as is possible I think. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpmurr Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Outside of the GT500 I think it's the best looking 2010. I wouldn't have a problem being seen in this Saleen. I had a 2006 Saleen Extreme last summer and it was a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mach1fever Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I really dig it. Give me a 500 but that is one great looking call. Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I really dig it. Give me a 500 but that is one great looking call. Roger pretty sure steve saleen is still suing MJ acquisitions to not allow them to use his name. I wonder if this car will ever see light of day. REAL Saleen cars are now under his new company SMS but even they seem sketchy to date as far as releasing anything other than a website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT500-07 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I like the SMS hood better, http://www.smssupercars.com/460.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Rodgers Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Love it, different look than the GT500, but I like both. I would assume the Saleen costs more, that would be the deal breaker for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mach1fever Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 From what I understand all current monickers the company was making went with the buyout deal. The is being branded an S281 so it should be fine. Steve's cars are supposed to be upper niche level cars in the KR price range.

ProntoTonto Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Like the rims. The hood looks pretty cool too. I don't care much for the rear end treatment as it looks too smoothed out especially without the spoiler. I like the GT500 look overall a lot better.

ilmor Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 I think it looks pretty good, if a little heavy in appearance, esp. the side view. I would do away with the 1/4 window cover. I like the hood, the front and the rear, except I'm not sure about the exhaust pipe outlets. In person (rather than photo) it may be a knockout.

Respectfully, Roger Only issue I see is the big SALEEN across the back. I guess it all got worked out when the lawyers from both sides got paid!

ingram4868 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 I'm not sure who their market will be. Just as we associate with C.S. won't the S. Saleen followers be looking to his new company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saleen followers be looking to his new company? No because most of his cars will be out of reach or not considered worth the supercar money for a mustang. Steve Saleen has nowhere near the following C/S has. Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inyadreems Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Plus, if you want a Saleen Mustang you want the car to say “Saleen” and not SMS. The name Saleen is synonymous with Mustang, but no one knows SMS. Plus the Saleen Mustang looks like previous Saleen’s where as the SMS 460 doesn’t.

REVENGE Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 This is the best looking saleen I have seen.Only problem with those cars is they never seem to get tested in the car mags. I wonder how their performance matches up to the manufacturer claims.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
