Saw a Saleen S281 Extreme today
Well, I got to see one up close and personal. It was a Screaming Yellow
2006 S281 Extreme. Forged internals and making more boost than the S281 S/C. It has 20" wheels with 15" brake rotors and 6 piston calipers. It also has some carbon fiber pieces on the front and rear valence that were very nice. Advertised at 550 bhp and 500 ft-lbs of torque. The $72,000 price tag made me shudder a tad . Man, put one of Saleen's pricier paints on that thing and you got yourself an $80,000+ Mustang. Ouch . Come on Ford. Get the Boss 330 out there . Dan 2003 Cobra convertible With some stuff and things |

I agree - the Boss 330 would be awesome. But I think it'll be a long time before we see a production version in the real world.. |
