...come to think of it.....my saleen DOES kinda resemble a GT.

I feel ripped off! It's like the 13" brakes, suspension and handling modifications, supercharger, manifold, body kit, saleen wheels, tuning, light bar, tonneau cover, saleen hood, and extra 105 hp don't mean anything!

I love it that hardly anyone in this section bats and eye when someone says that about a Roush, but say it about a Saleen that the world is ending.

Let's be honest, the non supercharged versions of both cars are more or less Mustangs with body kits, wheels, suspenion and brakes.

Without a supercharger they are all lightly modded GT's. Roush/Saleen Mustangs are sweet rides depends on what you want your ride to look like....dollar to dollar I think the Roush's have more performance than the Saleen's. Example: The P-51 for aprox $60K has 510hp, full Trak-Pak suspension and brakes. Plus a look to die for. Or the new 540RH with 540hp for aprox $55K. Not sure on warranties but I know it's hard to beat the 3/36K Roush warranty.

Personal opinion.

Don't forget how Roush always under rates the HP on his cars while Saleen always over rates the HP on his. Some will argue this but it is fact not opinion. Not to say Saleen is a bad car, just something to know going in.
