They will never find an auto. In 05, for instance, there was only 9 made. So there maybe be 50 tops in the 05+ platform.
Well, if you are so set in your ways, why did you ask for opinions from us?
(Not trying to be an ***, just trying to see things from your point of view.)

I know you aren't trying to be an ***, it's just I'm a very complex person
. The guy at the dealer said they had one with an auto recently but after reading that last reply of yours I've given up completely lol.Edit: It's not so much I'm set in my ways, it's just that the only way I'll change my mind is if I get a good amount of people that have legit reasoning for me not to do what I'm considering right now.

Nice find, ugly color, I want it to be Blue, Black, Yellow, or Silver. Preferably Black than my second would be Yellow.
Yellow ones seem to be hard to come by (especially in automatic). Black should be a little easier.
I'd look for a good deal on an 05 if you can find one. That'll be your best value. OR.....wait for the next mustang body style to come out and there might be a slight drop in the resale value on the current style. That's what I didwhenI bought my car in 05.

I thought the exact same thing about the color until I saw one in person. It used to be my least favorite saleen color.....now it's in the middle of the pack.

RE: Saleen Conversion.
Hey, everybody has their own idea of the perfect color, that's why so many different colors are available. For price, just lookon the sticker of anew one. Converts start at$60K and then go up from there depending on the options. Of course, now with the crappy market, I am sure there are dealers around who would be willing to make somecompromises they would not have made a few months ago. We could have even gotten several thousand off when we bought ours if we would have taken one out of inventory, but she wanted to order hers exactly the way she wanted it. How else could she have gotten that great color?
