I like. I definitely like it more than the C6.

Thats a dumb comment. "Archaic" is an adjective that could also be used to describe many aspects of the viper.

What's the expected power on the 281, 351? Gotta say, the outside looks better than I had thought. I'm not too crazy for the interior, but everything said and done, nice looking ride.

Re: 05 Saleen Mustang

thats one trick pony! needs more horses though and that should be easy enough to come by. the cobra version of this car that is scheduled to be released next year will have irs as an option to the live rear axle. the cars can already be had with a stick or automatic. so wait for the cobra if you wanna go road racing instead of drag racing and order your cobra with a irs and stick tranny. the cobra engine will more than likely be a supercharged 5.4 litre with 3 valve heads making 450 horse. ford is also goin to be making a mach 1 version with a modded version of the 4.6 litre that will make 350 horse. the shelby gt-350 version will be naturally aspirated as well and will probably be pumped to make 400 horse via a n/a 5.4 litre.

Re: 05 Saleen Mustang

A few months ago, down the street from where I work, they were loading into an enclosed trailer, three of the best looking Mustangs I have ever seen. They put the Saleen to shame (even though the Saleen is pretty nice). Lowered, Momo wheels, huge custom exhaust, custom paint, etc.

I don't know why they were there or who did the customization.

I keep kicking myself that I didn't take any pictures.

I challenge anyone to find a better stock performance bargain with a warranty other than the new GT. It's simply badass.

Get one Jerome

Re: 05 Saleen Mustang

Craig I worked my ass off this past year to have the money to buy a Viper. Now I have enough to buy one cash-money, yet I also have a business option at hand. What to do?

Business and possibly fail and lose it all?

Viper?

Mustang?

Viper and Mustang?


The part I like about them after the looks of it, mass production will make aftermarket parts cheap and effective.

Still waiting on one with the options I want, and not the crap that I don't.

The rear of the car looks great.

I don't care for the wheels. The exhaust tips appear to be stolen from a Camaro Z28. I also don't think the tips coming out the center looks good.
