Default To all the Saleen fans, here's a first look on the new S351.

The rest of the article here.

It has been over a decade since the livery of S351 last graced a new Mustang. The former king of the Mustang hill, long before there was a new GT500 or even a Terminator Cobra, the S351 was the halo car for Mustang owners. Produced in limited numbers and at their pinnacle available with 500 hp, the top of the line Saleen graced many Mustang magazine covers and was highly revered wherever it went, even rumored to be capable of running nearly 200 mph!

I like how they 'fixed' the rear fascia, could do without the fin though it is Saleen characteristic.

700 HP 5.8L is nothing to scoff at!

Looks pretty good, absolutely love the car though!

Pretty awesome they are offering it with an auto as well.

I agree. I really like how the rear end looks, though they could have chosen a better rear spoiler. Still isn't as bad as the New Edge Saleen spoiler though. That 700hp will be a real contender to the GT500!

Yeah she looks great got to see it in person at Mustang Round Up. The interior upgrades and remodel look really nice too. Was done very tasteful, wish I could afford one but got to take care of the 72 Mach before I get another Mustang.

I general I think it's great, but the nicely extended tailight area needs that ugly spoiler on top the way strawberry cheesecake needs dill pickle slices...
