So, what you're saying is the majority of Mustang7G users are mindless sheep? Is that what you're trying to convey?
nope, that's not the message. the message is "let people be excited for what they want to be excited about"

I just don't want to see any of my fellow enthusiasts get burned.. I work in the automotive aftermarket... small circle... I have heard the horror stories how they build their cars.. I have personally seen some pretty shoddy craftsmanship ship on finished products...

When Roush or Steeda or even RTR announce a new car ... I'll be just as excited as you guys to see what it looks like...

But seeing all the threads on panel gaps and paint quality from Ford... wait until you see what Saleen quality looks like up close

Apparently the S650 panel gaps look like fine precision compared to the new Tesla truck.

i understand your concern, and its good you're looking out for your fellow enthusiasts. i mainly made that meme to poke a bit of fun (i never mean harm with them). the only time i have ever seen a saleen anything up close was many years ago, back when Autonation Ford was called Power Ford, a saleen mustang in a showroom, so you probably know a lot more about the whole thing than i do

It's all good...and honestly your meme made me laugh too lol

Besides...no offense to the other cars on here but eventually if I do end up in a Dark Horse... you know I'm copying yours... just saying ... I mean who knows... let's see what the blower options look like .. and it might happen sooner rather then later..

Im eager to see it, although the pre-2010 S197 was the last Saleen that really got me excited. (I still say the “New Edge” Saleen was the coolest to do it) The bigger, softer bodies of the S550+ don’t look as good with all the body kits, wings, and such imo.
the new edge Saleens were killer! They looked exceptional. Actually I thought the recent 302 black label brought back some of those vibes and is the best looking mustang ever in my little humble opinion.

was hoping the s650 would be more sleek in the front, but instead ford went with the brick look. Maybe Saleen can “ensleeken” the front end.

Biting my tongue out of respect to the handful of people on here that like this; I just don't get it. Typical Saleen job like all the weird stuff they've put out. The glory days of the S7 and S281 are long gone imo.

Wow, this looks almost like an entirely new car. I like how they changed certain characteristics of the S650. Don’t get me wrong I think it looks awful but I see a lot of potential for a 2025 refresh or other, more tasteful tuners. Great effort but it’s just not for me.

What I especially like is the idea of a cover around the screen making it look like an implemented piece rather the standout screen that we have now. However, according to the pictures it looks like a really poor implementation. Anyhow, I’ll probably never have a chance to see it in person and can only judge it by the pictures.

im wondering if they used a base gt for their project? the bezeling around the vents are polished on the premium models. if so, they found a way to fill the gap between the 2 screens

Woaw... the front looks better than the S650 front! 🤣 ...but then it all falls apart with that park bench spoiler ...and WTF is up with that 80s blocky dash??? 🤢🤮

LOL I can honestly admit that I was not expecting THIS.
